\"EP-ZQ80<\/p>\n

The Korea Ever-Power EP-ZQ80<\/a><\/strong> replaces Bloma IBM85-class machines with decisive advantages across clamping, shot weight, machine height and platen width \u2014 while matching or bettering Bloma IBM85-class in every production metric that determines cost per bottle and factory floor economics.<\/p>\n

The numbers are direct. Bloma IBM85-class injection clamping is 700 kN \u2014 EP-ZQ80 at 800 kN is 14% higher<\/strong>. Bloma IBM85-class at 50 mm screw reaches 310 g injection weight \u2014 EP-ZQ80 at 55 mm screw reaches 466 g, more than 50% higher<\/strong>. Bloma IBM85-class machine height is 2.55 m \u2014 EP-ZQ80 stands at 2.0 m, 22% shorter<\/strong>. Bloma IBM85-class platen is 620 mm wide \u2014 EP-ZQ80 platen is 800 mm wide, 29% wider<\/strong>. Every specification that determines pharmaceutical GMP cleanroom compliance, cavity count and production output favours EP-ZQ80 in the 85-tonne IBM class.<\/p>\n

The height advantage is the qualification threshold. Bloma IBM85-class at 2.55 m exceeds the 2.4 m ceiling of standard Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms \u2014 the machine cannot be installed without structural ceiling modification. EP-ZQ80 at 2.0 m leaves 0.4 m overhead clearance in the same cleanroom, passing GMP IQ\/OQ facility qualification. The wider 800 mm platen simultaneously enables 20 cavities at 10 ml<\/strong> \u2014 six additional positions versus a Bloma IBM85-class 620 mm platen constrained layout.

Why EP-ZQ80 Over Bloma IBM85<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
01<\/div>\n
\n
466 g Shot Weight vs IBM85 310 g \u2014 50%+ More at the Critical 12-Cavity Format<\/div>\n

Bloma IBM85-class at 50 mm screw reaches 310 g. EP-ZQ80 at 55 mm screw reaches 466 g \u2014 156 g more injection weight per cycle. For 100 ml pharmaceutical HDPE tablet bottles at 35 g per preform: EP-ZQ80 at 466 g runs 12 cavities (420 g, within limit \u2014 confirmed from ZQ80 cavity table at 100 ml = 12 cavities); Bloma IBM85 at 310 g is limited to 8 cavities (280 g). At three-shift pharmaceutical production at 3.5 s dry cycle, the difference between 8 and 12 cavities per cycle compounds to approximately 83 million additional bottles per year from EP-ZQ80 versus Bloma IBM85 \u2014 from the same energy input, same factory floor space and same operator count.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
02<\/div>\n
\n
800 mm vs 620 mm Platen \u2014 29% Wider, 20 Cavities at 10 ml<\/div>\n

EP-ZQ80 platen at 800 mm width versus Bloma IBM85’s 620 mm width (29% wider) is the direct driver of the cavity count difference at small bottle formats. At 10 ml format with typical 36 mm mandrel centre-to-centre pitch: EP-ZQ80’s 800 mm platen accommodates 20 mandrel positions; Bloma IBM85’s 620 mm platen accommodates approximately 16 positions. Korea Ever-Power ZQ80 specification confirms 20 cavities at 10 ml. For Korean K-beauty luxury PCTG eye serum dropper vial production where cost per bottle is determined purely by cavities per cycle, this 4-cavity difference (20 versus 16) is a 25% output advantage per machine per shift \u2014 compounding to tens of millions of additional bottles per year at commercial launch volumes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
03<\/div>\n
\n
2.0 m vs 2.55 m \u2014 GMP Cleanroom Installation Without Ceiling Modification<\/div>\n

Bloma IBM85-class at 2.55 m exceeds the 2.4 m ceiling clearance of standard Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms. Installation of Bloma IBM85-class in a 2.4 m cleanroom is physically impossible without structural ceiling modification works \u2014 typically requiring suspended ceiling raising at 50\u2013150 million KRW per bay plus production downtime during construction. EP-ZQ80 at 2.0 m leaves 0.4 m overhead clearance in the same 2.4 m cleanroom, passing GMP IQ\/OQ facility qualification at installation without any structural modification. In a 3.0 m ceiling cleanroom, EP-ZQ80 has 1.0 m of comfortable overhead service clearance versus Bloma IBM85’s 0.45 m \u2014 the latter again insufficient for barrel heater element replacement requiring approximately 0.5 m minimum access above the heater bands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
04<\/div>\n
\n
800 kN vs 700 kN \u2014 14% Higher Clamp at the 85-Tonne Class<\/div>\n

At 12 cavities for 100 ml pharmaceutical HDPE production: EP-ZQ80 at 800 kN distributes 66.7 kN per injection cavity; Bloma IBM85 at 700 kN distributes 87.5 kN per cavity at 8 cavities \u2014 higher per-cavity force at fewer cavities. EP-ZQ80 at 800 kN running 12 cavities distributes 66.7 kN per cavity \u2014 still within the structural requirement for pharmaceutical PP and HDPE bottle production where typical injection cavity hold force requirements are 40\u201360 kN per cavity. The additional 100 kN total clamping force on EP-ZQ80 versus IBM85 provides structural margin for higher injection speeds and heavier-wall HDPE grades at the same 12-cavity pharmaceutical production configuration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
05<\/div>\n
\n
S136 SPI A1 Mould + 10\u201320% Lower Energy + Korea Service Base<\/div>\n

S136 SPI A1 injection cavities and blow moulds (Ra \u2264 0.010 \u03bcm) deliver PCTG haze 0.8\u20131.6% ASTM D1003 \u2014 the crystal-clear optical grade Korean luxury K-beauty brands specify and Bloma IBM85-class H13 standard tooling cannot achieve. European pressurised-clamping delivers 10\u201320% lower energy per cycle versus Bloma IBM85-class hydraulic architecture. Total installed power 55 kW at 55\u201370% steady-state utilisation. Korea Ever-Power Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do service base provides same-day Korean spare parts dispatch and 24\/7 remote PLC VPN support \u2014 in-country service response that Bloma’s own service scheduling cannot always guarantee for all Korean buyer locations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Q1: Will Bloma IBM85 mould tooling transfer to the EP-ZQ80?<\/p>\n

Not directly. Bloma IBM85 platen is 620 \u00d7 430 mm versus EP-ZQ80 800 \u00d7 400 mm \u2014 180 mm wider and 30 mm shorter on EP-ZQ80. The different platen dimensions result in different bolt-hole patterns and mandrel pitch configurations. Mould thickness (250 mm on EP-ZQ80) and mandrel diameter may also differ from Bloma IBM85 tooling standards. Send Bloma IBM85 mould base drawings for a Korea Ever-Power compatibility assessment within 5 working days at no cost \u2014 in some cases, a platen adapter plate can accommodate existing Bloma IBM85 tooling on EP-ZQ80’s wider platen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q2: How does EP-ZQ80 at 55mm screw achieve 466g when Bloma IBM85 at 50mm only reaches 310g?<\/p>\n

EP-ZQ80 uses a 55 mm screw versus Bloma IBM85’s 50 mm screw \u2014 a 10% screw diameter increase. However, screw diameter alone does not account for a 50%+ shot weight difference. The barrel L\/D ratio (22:1 on EP-ZQ80) and effective injection stroke are the primary determinants of shot weight at a given screw diameter. EP-ZQ80’s extended injection stroke calibrated for 466 g at 55 mm screw delivers approximately 2.4 times more shot weight per millimetre of screw diameter than Bloma IBM85’s 310 g at 50 mm suggests. Buyers should request Bloma IBM85 barrel L\/D and injection stroke specifications for a direct technical comparison.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q3: How many additional cavities does EP-ZQ80 provide versus Bloma IBM85 at 100ml pharmaceutical format?<\/p>\n

For a standard 100 ml pharmaceutical HDPE tablet bottle at 35 g per preform: EP-ZQ80 at 466 g runs 12 cavities (12 \u00d7 35 g = 420 g, within limit \u2014 confirmed from EP-ZQ80 cavity table at 100 ml = 12 cavities); Bloma IBM85 at 310 g is limited to 8 cavities (8 \u00d7 35 g = 280 g, within limit). EP-ZQ80 provides 4 additional cavities \u2014 a 50% output increase at identical cycle time and energy cost. At 3.5 s dry cycle and three shifts per day: the 4-cavity difference adds approximately 83 million additional bottles per year per machine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q4: Does EP-ZQ80 at 2.0m height fit Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms where IBM85 at 2.55m does not?<\/p>\n

Yes. EP-ZQ80 at 2.0 m fits Korean pharmaceutical GMP cleanrooms with 2.4 m ceiling clearance with 0.4 m overhead maintenance access \u2014 sufficient for barrel heater element replacement and routine hydraulic system inspection. Bloma IBM85-class at 2.55 m physically cannot be installed in a 2.4 m ceiling cleanroom, and in a 3.0 m cleanroom leaves only 0.45 m overhead \u2014 below the 0.5 m minimum typically required for barrel heater band access. This single dimension difference determines GMP IQ\/OQ facility qualification success or failure for IBM85-class Korean pharmaceutical buyers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q5: What is the EP-ZQ80 machine and mould lead time?<\/p>\n

Machine: 55\u201370 working days from order confirmation and deposit. Mould tooling: 45\u201355 working days (H13 SPI B1) or 60\u201375 working days (S136 SPI A1 for 20-cavity PCTG precision tooling). Machine and mould manufactured in parallel for simultaneous T1 trial commissioning at Korea Ever-Power before shipment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q6: What GMP documentation does Korea Ever-Power provide with EP-ZQ80?<\/p>\n

Machine data sheet; FAT report on buyer-specified resin and cavity format; CE certificate; ISO 9001:2015 certificate; PP resin CoA with Korean MFDS food container registration and KP plastic container standard test from KOLAS-accredited laboratory; PCTG Eastman TX1001 FDA 21 CFR 177.2490 food contact letter + EU 10\/2011 Declaration of Conformity. IQ\/OQ documentation template on request.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q7: What after-sales service does Korea Ever-Power provide in Korea for EP-ZQ80?<\/p>\n

Korea Ever-Power Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do: one week on-site commissioning and operator training at buyer’s facility; 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. In-country service response capability at the EP-ZQ80 machine class where unplanned downtime in pharmaceutical three-shift production directly impacts batch release schedules and customer delivery commitments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q8: What PCTG optical quality does EP-ZQ80 with S136 SPI A1 tooling achieve?<\/p>\n

0.8\u20131.6% ASTM D1003 integrating sphere haze at 0.5\u20130.6 mm body wall, verified on Korea Ever-Power ZQ-series T1 trials with PCTG Eastman TX1001 at 252 \u00b0C barrel and 20 \u00b0C blow mould cooling. This sub-2% haze is the glass-look optical specification Korean luxury K-beauty cosmetic dropper vial brands require and Bloma IBM85-class standard H13 tooling cannot achieve. The S136 SPI A1 upgrade is available as a standard option on every EP-ZQ80 order.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q9: How does EP-ZQ80’s 800mm platen enable 20 cavities at 10ml versus Bloma IBM85’s 620mm platen?<\/p>\n

At 10 ml format with typical mandrel centre-to-centre spacing of 36\u201338 mm: EP-ZQ80’s 800 mm effective platen width accommodates 20 mandrel positions in a single row (20 \u00d7 38 mm = 760 mm, within 800 mm limit); Bloma IBM85’s 620 mm platen accommodates approximately 16 positions (16 \u00d7 38 mm = 608 mm, within 620 mm limit). The Korea Ever-Power ZQ80 specification confirms 20 cavities at 10 ml; Bloma IBM85-class cavity count at 10 ml is not published but is constrained by the 620 mm platen width. At Korean luxury K-beauty eye serum dropper production where each additional cavity reduces cost per bottle by 5\u20138% at full commercial volume, the 4-cavity difference between EP-ZQ80 and Bloma IBM85-class platen geometry is a significant competitive advantage per unit of capital investment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Q10: Which Korea Ever-Power model replaces Bloma IBM135 for buyers scaling beyond EP-ZQ80?<\/p>\n

EP-ZQ110 (1,100 kN, screw 65 mm, max shot 540 g, platen 1100 \u00d7 460 mm, total power 80 kW, machine 5.0 \u00d7 1.8 \u00d7 2.2 m, 15 T) replaces Bloma IBM135-class (1,250 kN, screw 70 mm, shot 560 g, platen 900 \u00d7 480 mm, height 2.55 m).
