HGA.ES-4C114.3

4-Cavity Enhanced Servo Stretch Blow Molding Machine  ·  PET / PETG  ·  4,000 bph  ·  Max 94 mm Body  ·  CE + ISO 9001:2015

The HGA.ES-4C114.3 is a high-speed 4-cavity enhanced servo machine at 114.3 mm pitch — delivering 4,000 bph for medium-body cosmetic and daily chemical bottles up to 94 mm body diameter and 1,000 ml volume. At the same body diameter as the HGA.ES-4C114 but with 4,000 bph versus 3,300 bph, the 114.3 pitch configuration is optimised for higher cycle speed at the cost of a slightly lower maximum volume ceiling.

The 4C114.3 achieves 4,000 bph — 700 more bottles per hour than the 4C114 (3,300 bph) — through a shorter 180 mm mold-close distance that reduces the mold open-close cycle time per unit. For bottle formats within 1,000 ml and 260 mm height at 94 mm body diameter, the 4C114.3 is the highest-throughput ES option at this pitch class. The enhanced servo drive maintains consistent inter-cavity quality across all four positions at this higher cycle rate.

The 4C114.3's high-pressure air consumption of 2,400 L/min is less than half the 4C114's 5,000 L/min — a major utility infrastructure advantage. The shorter mold-close distance reduces the per-cycle blow volume, lowering the total air demand per hour despite the higher bph rate. For facilities where compressor capacity is a constraint, the 4C114.3 is substantially easier to accommodate than the 4C114 at comparable body diameter and cavity count.

The 88 mm maximum neck diameter matches the 4C114 — the widest available in the HGA.ES 4-cavity 114 mm pitch class. Wide pump-top dispensers, large flip-top closures, and broad-shoulder bottle profiles used in premium personal care packaging are all within this neck range. For cosmetic brands where wide-neck closure design is a product specification, the 4C114.3 covers the same closure range as the 4C114 while delivering higher output at lower air infrastructure cost.

The 100-position preform holder matches the 4C114 holder capacity — ensuring consistent through-wall infrared conditioning for four simultaneous medium-body preform streams at the higher 4,000 bph cycle rate. The 52 KW maximum heating power (2 KW above the 4C114's 50 KW) reflects the marginally higher infrared demand at the faster cycle, while the zone-level digital control system maintains temperature precision across all 100 positions at this rate.

For high-volume cosmetic and daily chemical bottle operations producing formats within the 1,000 ml and 260 mm height envelope, the 4C114.3 offers a compelling output-per-utility-cost ratio: 4,000 bph at 2,400 L/min high-pressure air versus the 4C114's 3,300 bph at 5,000 L/min. Higher output, lower compressor running cost — for the right bottle format, the 4C114.3 is the commercially more efficient selection.

Commissioning the 4C114.3 covers 100-position holder indexing calibration, infrared zone balancing for four simultaneous medium-body preform streams at 4,000 bph cycle rate, ES servo parameter optimisation for the shorter 180 mm mold-close cycle, and inter-cavity uniformity verification from all four positions. Ever-Power's commissioning engineers complete all steps before handover, including first-production samples from all four cavities inspected against weight, wall-thickness, and dimensional uniformity specifications.

Premium and standard shampoo and conditioner from 200 ml to 1,000 ml at 94 mm body diameter in PET and PETG. High-volume filling lines where 1,000 ml is the maximum target volume and 4,000 bph ES output is required. The 88 mm neck covers the full range of wide pump-top and flip-top closure formats used across premium and mass-market personal care bottle specifications within this volume range.

Standard body wash and shower gel from 300 ml to 1,000 ml at 94 mm body diameter — the most common body wash volume range for premium and standard retail formats. At 4,000 bph and 1,000 ml maximum volume, the 4C114.3 produces 4,000 litres of container volume per hour at maximum specification — the highest volumetric output rate in the HGA.ES 114 mm pitch class for bottles within this volume range.

Liquid soap, fabric softener, and household cleaning products from 300 ml to 1,000 ml in PET at 94 mm body diameter. High-volume daily chemical filling operations where the 1,000 ml volume ceiling covers all standard format production and 4,000 bph significantly improves per-shift output over 3-cavity alternatives. The lower 2,400 L/min air requirement is a meaningful operating cost advantage for high-volume daily chemical production with sustained machine running time.

OEM packaging suppliers producing medium-body PET and PETG bottles at maximum throughput for multiple cosmetic and daily chemical brand clients — where all client bottle formats are within 1,000 ml and 260 mm height and 4,000 bph ES output is the primary selection driver. The combination of highest output in the 114 mm pitch ES class and lowest air infrastructure cost at this cavity count makes the 4C114.3 the preferred configuration for bottle-format-matched high-volume OEM operations.

"We produce shampoo and conditioner from 300 ml to 1,000 ml at 92 mm body for multiple FMCG clients. The 4C114.3 at 4,000 bph was the selection over the 4C114 because our largest format is 1,000 ml — we do not need 1,300 ml capacity. The lower air requirement at 2,400 litres per minute versus 5,000 on the 4C114 was a significant factor — we avoided a compressor infrastructure upgrade. Inter-cavity uniformity has been consistent from the start."

Machine: HGA.ES-4C114.3

"We run PETG body wash at 500 ml and 800 ml — 90 mm body, 85 mm flip-top neck, optical clarity a brand requirement. The 4C114.3 gives us 4,000 bph which is exactly what our filling line requires. PETG at high-speed 4-cavity rate required careful infrared zone setup — the commissioning engineer took additional time on zone calibration at 4,000 bph cycle rate and it was worth the investment. Consistent clarity across all four cavities since startup."

Machine: HGA.ES-4C114.3

"We manufacture fabric softener from 500 ml to 1,000 ml at 94 mm body for retail and wholesale channels. 4,000 bph matches our filling line rate. The lower compressor demand was the deciding factor between the 4C114.3 and 4C114 — we run this machine on existing compressor capacity without any additional infrastructure. After 10 months, no significant production issues. Machine has performed as specified."

Machine: HGA.ES-4C114.3

"We operate two 4C114.3 machines side by side for our OEM cosmetic bottle supply line serving six brand clients at 94 mm body diameter. Combined output of 8,000 bph across both machines gives us the capacity for our client volumes. One practical note: at 4,000 bph, preform supply and downstream conveyor and sorting systems must be matched to this output rate — the bottle production speed is only useful if the upstream and downstream systems keep up. Plan the full line, not just the machine."

Q1: What is the key difference between the 4C114.3 and the 4C114?

Both are 4-cavity ES machines at 114 mm class pitch with 94 mm body and 88 mm neck. The 4C114.3 produces 4,000 bph versus 3,300 bph on the 4C114 through a shorter 180 mm mold-close distance. The trade-off: the 4C114.3 has a lower maximum volume (1,000 ml vs 1,300 ml) and a single height ceiling (260 mm vs 250/330 mm). If your bottle fits within 1,000 ml and 260 mm height, the 4C114.3 delivers more output at lower air infrastructure cost. If your bottle requires more than 1,000 ml or tall formats above 260 mm, choose the 4C114.

Q2: Why is the high-pressure air consumption so much lower than the 4C114 despite higher output?

The 4C114.3's 180 mm mold-close distance versus the 4C114's 230 mm means the blow mold cavity is smaller per cycle — a smaller mold volume requires less blow air per cycle. Even though the 4C114.3 produces more cycles per hour (4,000 bph versus 3,300 bph), the lower per-cycle air volume results in a total hourly air demand of 2,400 L/min versus 5,000 L/min. This is a direct consequence of the cycle optimisation: shorter mold travel, faster cycle, lower container volume, lower blow air per cycle. For an air compressor sizing calculation, use 2,400 L/min at 35 kg/cm² as the sustained delivery requirement.

Q3: Can PETG be processed at 4,000 bph on this machine?

Yes, with careful infrared zone calibration at the 4,000 bph cycle rate. PETG requires a narrower processing temperature window than PET — at higher cycle rates, the preform spends less time per heating zone, requiring higher zone power to achieve consistent through-wall temperature at faster dwell. The 100-position holder and zone-level digital infrared system provide the conditioning precision PETG requires at 4,000 bph. Zone profiles for your PETG grade are calibrated during commissioning — contact Ever-Power with your PETG datasheet before ordering for a pre-commissioning zone profile assessment.

Q4: What is the machine footprint?

5,120 mm (L) x 2,150 mm (W) x 2,310 mm (H), 5,500 kg — same length and width as the 4C114 (5,120 x 2,150 x 2,350 mm), 40 mm shorter in height. Confirm floor load capacity for 5,500 kg. Allow lateral clearance for 4-cavity mold change-over at 114.3 mm pitch, space for bottle outlet conveyor and collection, and auxiliary equipment access. At 4,000 bph, downstream conveyor, sorting, and collection capacity must be matched to this output rate — verify the full line specification before installation.

Q5: What certifications does the machine carry?

CE marking and ISO 9001:2015 are standard on all HGA series machines. CE Declaration of Conformity available before order. Factory acceptance test report with samples from all four cavities at 4,000 bph cycle rate inspected for inter-cavity weight, wall-thickness, and dimensional uniformity supplied at delivery.

Q6: What after-sales support is available?

Remote technical support during business hours. 5-year spare parts availability commitment. On-site engineer dispatch for faults not resolvable remotely. The high-speed 4-cavity commissioning engineer is available for follow-on visits if inter-cavity uniformity or cycle stability issues arise during production ramp-up at 4,000 bph rate.
