Produkt\u00fcbersicht<\/h2>\n

Der Korea Ever-Power EP-ZQ135<\/a><\/strong> is the top-range machine in the EP-ZQ platform, positioned as the European IBM alternative to the Uniloy UIB180 in the top-class IBM tonnage tier. At 1,350 kN injection clamping<\/strong> Und 650 g maximum injection weight<\/strong> at 70 mm screw, EP-ZQ135 brings European pressurised-clamping architecture to a tonnage class where American-style IBM machines have historically dominated through the Uniloy UIB-series platform.<\/p>\n

\"Spritzblasformmaschine<\/p>\n

The UIB180 class is where the height implications of American IBM architecture reach their most extreme expression. American-style IBM machines at the UIB180 class carry vertical hydraulic clamping columns proportional to their 180-tonne rating \u2014 generating machine heights that typically reach 3.5\u20134.0 m or more at this tonnage. No standard Korean industrial building, pharmaceutical GMP cleanroom or daily chemical production facility can accommodate this height without purpose-built structural provisions. Korea Ever-Power EP-ZQ135 at 2.4 m machine height<\/strong> \u2014 the same height achieved across the EP-ZQ platform from the smallest ZQ40 to the largest ZQ135, with only 0.7 m total height increase from 400 kN to 1,350 kN clamping \u2014 fits any Korean industrial building with standard 3.0 m+ ceiling clearance with 0.6 m overhead maintenance access.<\/p>\n

Der 1,300 mm wide platen<\/strong> enables 30 cavities at 10 ml and 18 cavities at 100 ml \u2014 the highest confirmed cavity count output in this entire IBM comparison series. At 2.0 m machine width<\/strong>, six EP-ZQ135 units fit in a standard 15 m Korean pharmaceutical production bay versus four UIB180-class units at typical 2.67 m+ width.

Core Advantages of EP-ZQ135 in the UIB180 Class<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
01<\/div>\n
\n
2.4 m Height at 1,350 kN \u2014 The Complete EP-ZQ Platform Under 2.5 m<\/div>\n

The EP-ZQ platform achieves 1.7 m at 400 kN (ZQ40) through 2.4 m at 1,350 kN (ZQ135) \u2014 a 0.7 m total height increase across a 3.4\u00d7 increase in clamping force. American-style IBM machines in the UIB180 class scale their machine height approximately proportionally with clamping tonnage, because the vertical hydraulic clamping column height is mechanically linked to clamping force capacity. UIB180-class machines at 180-tonne rating typically reach 3.5\u20134.0 m height \u2014 a height range that requires purpose-built tall-ceiling industrial bays in Korean pharmaceutical and daily chemical production facilities and completely excludes pharmaceutical GMP cleanroom installation. EP-ZQ135 at 2.4 m is the only IBM machine at this clamping tonnage class that fits standard Korean 3.0 m ceiling industrial buildings with 0.6 m overhead maintenance clearance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
02<\/div>\n
\n
30 Cavities at 10ml \u2014 Maximum Output of the Entire IBM Comparison Series<\/div>\n

Korea Ever-Power ZQ135 specification confirms 30 cavities at 10 ml from the 1,300 mm platen \u2014 the highest confirmed cavity count in this entire 19-page IBM machine replacement comparison series. UIB180-class platen dimensions are not published, but the 1,300 mm horizontal platen of EP-ZQ135 represents the widest platen in this series and enables the maximum practical single-row mandrel count for 10 ml pharmaceutical and cosmetic IBM dropper vial production. At 30 cavities for 10 ml PCTG eye serum droppers at 5.0 s total cycle, 3 shifts, 330 days: approximately (30 \u00d7 3,600 \/ 5.0) \u00d7 24 \u00d7 330 = approximately 428 million bottles per year from a single EP-ZQ135 unit \u2014 the maximum annual single-machine output in Korean K-beauty luxury cosmetic IBM production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
03<\/div>\n
\n
Six Machines Per 15m Bay vs Four UIB180-Class Units \u2014 50% More Capacity<\/div>\n

EP-ZQ135 at 2.0 m width enables six units in a 15 m wide Korean pharmaceutical production bay (6 \u00d7 2.0 m + 2 \u00d7 1.5 m aisles = 15.0 m, exactly fitting). UIB180-class American IBM machines at typical 2.67+ m width fit four units in the same bay (4 \u00d7 2.67 m + 2 \u00d7 1.5 m = 13.68 m; 5th unit would require 16.35 m, exceeding the 15 m bay). Six EP-ZQ135 versus four UIB180-class units per bay \u2014 at EP-ZQ135’s scale of 428 million bottles per year at 10 ml per unit, this 50% machine density advantage is a 50% production capacity increase from the same facility investment. For Korean large-scale K-beauty or pharmaceutical IBM facilities, this bay density difference is the highest-magnitude single advantage in this comparison series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

S136 SPI A1 stainless injection cavities and blow moulds (Ra \u2264 0.010 \u03bcm) deliver PCTG haze 0.8\u20131.6% ASTM D1003 across all 30 cavity positions at 10 ml scale \u2014 verified on Korea Ever-Power ZQ-series T1 trials. Uniloy UIB180-class standard tooling does not include S136 SPI A1 as a published upgrade option. For Korean luxury K-beauty brands requiring glass-look PCTG optical quality at the highest single-machine production volume available in the IBM market, EP-ZQ135 with S136 SPI A1 is the only machine configuration that simultaneously delivers 30 cavities per cycle and sub-2% ASTM D1003 haze at UIB180-class clamping tonnage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
10\u201320% Lower Energy + Servo Indexing + Korea Service \u2014 Maximum Impact at Peak Volume<\/div>\n

European pressurised-clamping delivers 10\u201320% lower energy per cycle versus UIB180-class conventional American hydraulic architecture. At EP-ZQ135 \/ UIB180-class production volumes, the absolute energy saving per year is the largest of any machine in this comparison series. Total installed power 95 kW at 55\u201370% steady-state (52\u201367 kW actual). Servo rotary table: at 428 million cycles per year per EP-ZQ135 unit at 10 ml format, cam wear accumulation in UIB180-class machines at this cycle rate is the fastest in the product line \u2014 servo indexing advantage is most pronounced at UIB180-class production scale. Korea Ever-Power Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do service base: same-day Korean spare parts and 24\/7 remote PLC VPN support with 2-hour SLA are operationally most critical at peak production volume where downtime impact per hour is the highest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

H\u00e4ufig gestellte Fragen<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

Q1: Can Uniloy UIB180 mould tooling be transferred to the EP-ZQ135?<\/p>\n

Not without assessment. Uniloy UIB180-class mould tooling standards are not publicly documented. EP-ZQ135 platen is 1,300 \u00d7 500 mm with its own bolt-hole pattern, mandrel pitch and mould thickness configuration. Send UIB180 mould base drawings for a Korea Ever-Power compatibility review within 5 working days at no cost.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q2: Why is EP-ZQ135 at 2.4m when UIB180-class machines are typically 3.5m+ at this tonnage?<\/p>\n

UIB180-class American IBM machine height scales with tonnage because the vertical hydraulic clamping cylinder must physically accommodate 180-tonne clamping force AND provide full mould open\/close stroke clearance above the injection unit. At 180-tonne class, this vertical column reaches 3.5\u20134.0 m. Korea Ever-Power EP-ZQ135 uses a horizontal European booster cylinder that provides 1,350 kN clamping hold force in static compression \u2014 the cylinder does not travel on mould open\/close and requires no vertical clearance above the injection unit. This horizontal booster design keeps EP-ZQ135 at 2.4 m across 1,350 kN clamping force. The entire EP-ZQ platform grows only 0.7 m in height from 400 kN (ZQ40 at 1.7 m) to 1,350 kN (ZQ135 at 2.4 m) \u2014 while UIB-class American IBM machines grow proportionally in height with tonnage class.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q3: What is the annual production capacity of EP-ZQ135 at 30 cavities, 10ml format?<\/p>\n

At 30 cavities, 5.0 s typical total cycle time at 10 ml PCTG format, 3 shifts per day, 330 production days per year: approximately (30 \u00d7 3,600 \/ 5.0) \u00d7 24 \u00d7 330 = approximately 428 million 10 ml PCTG dropper vials per year per EP-ZQ135 unit. For 100 ml pharmaceutical HDPE at 18 cavities and 5.5 s total cycle: approximately (18 \u00d7 3,600 \/ 5.5) \u00d7 24 \u00d7 330 = approximately 193 million bottles per year per unit. These are the highest single-machine annual output figures in this entire IBM comparison series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q4: Does EP-ZQ135 at 2.4m height fit Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms?<\/p>\n

Yes, for cleanrooms with 3.0 m ceiling clearance (0.6 m overhead \u2014 comfortable for barrel heater element service, upper hydraulic system maintenance and HVAC access). For 2.7 m ceiling cleanrooms: EP-ZQ135 at 2.4 m leaves 0.3 m overhead \u2014 below the 0.5 m minimum for barrel heater service. Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms for pharmaceutical IBM at this tonnage class are typically built with 3.0\u20134.5 m ceiling clearance to accommodate large equipment; EP-ZQ135 at 2.4 m qualifies for all such environments. UIB180-class machines at 3.5\u20134.0 m require 4.0\u20134.5+ m ceiling clearance for installation \u2014 outside standard pharmaceutical GMP cleanroom specifications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Q7: What after-sales service does Korea Ever-Power provide in Korea for EP-ZQ135?<\/p>\n

Korea Ever-Power Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do: one week on-site commissioning and operator training; 24\/7 remote PLC VPN diagnostic support for 90 days post-commissioning with 2-hour software response SLA; same-day Korean spare parts dispatch; scheduled preventive maintenance on annual service contract. At EP-ZQ135 \/ UIB180-class production volumes \u2014 the highest IBM output tier with 200\u2013400+ million bottles per year per unit \u2014 every hour of unplanned downtime has the largest absolute production impact of any machine in this series. Korea Ever-Power’s in-country 2-hour diagnostic and same-day parts from Ansan-si is the structurally fastest service response available for any IBM machine of this class in Korea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q8: What PCTG optical quality does EP-ZQ135 achieve at 30-cavity scale with S136 SPI A1 tooling?<\/p>\n

0.8\u20131.6% ASTM D1003 integrating sphere haze at 0.5\u20130.6 mm body wall across all 30 cavity positions, verified on Korea Ever-Power ZQ-series T1 trials with PCTG Eastman TX1001 at 252 \u00b0C barrel and 20 \u00b0C blow mould cooling. Uniform barrel temperature distribution across the 1,300 mm platen width and consistent S136 SPI A1 surface finish (Ra \u2264 0.010 \u03bcm) across all 30 injection cavity positions are required to maintain this haze specification \u2014 both are achievable on EP-ZQ135 and verified in Korea Ever-Power production trials. Uniloy UIB180-class standard tooling does not include S136 SPI A1 as a published option.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q9: How does EP-ZQ135 servo rotary table indexing compare to UIB180-class cam-driven indexing at peak production rates?<\/p>\n

At UIB180-class production rates of 400+ million cycles per year (10 ml format, 30 cavities, 3 shifts), cam and follower contact surfaces in UIB180-class cam-driven indexing mechanisms accumulate mechanical wear at the highest rate of any machine in this comparison series. EP-ZQ135 servo rotary table maintains consistent angular positioning repeatability using servo motor-driven precision throughout the machine’s operating life \u2014 no cam wear mechanism. The consequence at UIB180-class production rates is that EP-ZQ135 servo indexing maintains mandrel-to-cavity angular alignment for the full machine service life, while UIB180-class cam-driven indexing systems require periodic cam and follower replacement to restore angular positioning accuracy \u2014 at UIB180-class production rates, this maintenance interval is shortest of all machine classes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q10: Does Korea Ever-Power EP-ZQ135 carry CE marking for European pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging markets?<\/p>\n

Yes. CE marking with Declaration of Conformity to the relevant EU Machinery Directive is standard on every EP-ZQ135. European-destination units configured for 400 V \/ 50 Hz at order stage. Full CE documentation package available for review before order confirmation on request.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
