Multi-cavity PET preform mold

48 cavity PET preform mold.

A mid-range cavity count buyers often specify. This page shows the photograph and the runner reference OSLON has published, and it keeps every unconfirmed field open.

What is published, and what is not.

The mold photograph is identified as a 48 cavity hot runner PET preform mold. A separate rendering shows a 48 cavity flow layout. Neither file states the neck finish, gram weight, target cycle, injection machine or steel.

Runner reference

A 48 cavity flow layout, not a finished manifold.

Use it to talk about balance. Final bore, zone count and gate type follow the preform.

Compare the records

64 and 72 cavities have full project pages. 48 does not.

The cycles below belong to those two mineral-water tools. They are not a 48 cavity quotation.

Published fields only. Neck, weight, cycle, machine and steel are not published for the 48 cavity mold.

Planning size

Calculator layout for necks up to 30 mm.

This row is a planning reference from the cavity calculator. It is not measured from the photographed mold. Larger necks such as 38 mm need a wider pitch, so the same 48 cavities occupy a larger plate.

Theoretical output is cavities × 3,600 ÷ cycle time in seconds. Without a published cycle, this page does not print an hourly figure for 48 cavities. The 64-cavity record at 12 seconds is 19,200 preforms an hour before downtime. The 72-cavity record at 15 seconds is 17,280. Your number starts from your cycle, not from those two.

Questions

What buyers ask about a 48 cavity mold.

Is a full specification published for this 48 cavity mold?

No. The public record is the mold photograph, identified as a 48 cavity hot runner PET preform mold, and a separate 48 cavity runner-layout reference. Neck finish, preform weight, cycle, injection machine and steel are not published for this mold.

How does 48 cavities compare with the 64 and 72 cavity cases?

The 64- and 72-cavity pages publish neck, weight, hot runner type, machine, target cycle and steel. The 48 cavity page does not. Use those two records to see how a complete project is written. Do not copy their 12-second or 15-second cycles onto a 48 cavity tool.

What size does the cavity calculator show for 48 cavities?

For neck finishes up to 30 mm, the published calculator layout is 4 × 12, pitch 50 × 130 mm, mold size 930 × 560 mm. That is a planning size. It is not the drawing of the photographed mold. A larger neck needs a wider pitch.

Can you quote a cycle time for a 48 cavity mold?

Only after the preform wall, the machine and the cooling water are known. The published 64- and 72-cavity mineral-water tools already show why: similar 14 g preforms were quoted at 12 seconds and 15 seconds on different machines. Send the drawing and use the cavity calculator to check whether 48 cavities fit the platen.
