HGA.ES-4C100 Food Jars & Cans Blow Molding Machine

At 4,600 bph, the 4C100 delivers more than 2.5 times the output of the 2-cavity 130 mm pitch machines at the same body diameter range. This output rate serves national-scale food brand production requirements, contract packaging operations running multiple SKUs on a single machine, and food manufacturers where narrow-body jar volume is the primary production constraint.

The 92-position preform holder is the largest in the series — providing extended infrared conditioning dwell time across four simultaneous preform streams at 100 mm pitch. All four preforms advance together and must receive identical zone-level heating profiles to achieve consistent inter-cavity weight and wall thickness across all four blow positions at 4,600 bph cycle rate.

At 4,170 x 1,930 x 2,340 mm and 4,000 kg, the 4C100 achieves the highest output in the series at a footprint comparable to the larger 2-cavity machines. The 100 mm pitch keeps the machine width contained — four cavities at 100 mm pitch occupy less lateral blow-station space than the same output across two wider-pitch machines.

Factory acceptance testing covers inter-cavity weight, wall thickness, height, and optical clarity across all four blow positions before shipment. Samples from all four cavities are inspected simultaneously — not just from one representative cavity — ensuring production consistency from day one across the full 4,600 bph output.

"We produce spice jars from 100 ml to 500 ml for national retail distribution. The 4C100 at 4,600 bph matches our filling line speed and gives us the unit output our distribution volumes require. We run six different spice jar formats on the same machine across the shift schedule. Inter-cavity consistency across all four positions has been within our fill-weight tolerance since commissioning."

"Condiment jars from 200 ml to 800 ml for food service supply. 4,600 bph gave us the capacity to bring jar production in-house from a contract packer — the payback period on the machine was well within our target. The 92-position holder is noticeably larger than the 2-cavity machines we looked at, and the four-position acceptance test gave us confidence in consistency before we started commercial production."

"Single-serve sesame oil bottles at 50 ml, 100 ml, and 150 ml for airline food service supply. The 4,600 bph output is essential for our volume. One practical note: the 80 mm maximum body diameter is a firm limit — if your jar format requires anything wider, this machine will not accommodate it. We confirmed our bottle geometry with Ever-Power before ordering tooling, which avoided any compatibility issues."

Why does the 4C100 have the highest output but the smallest maximum volume in the 4-cavity range?

The 100 mm pitch positions cavities more closely together than the 130 mm or 150 mm pitch machines — which limits the maximum body diameter to 80 mm (versus 110 mm on the 4C130 and 130 mm on the 4C150). The smaller preform mass at 80 mm body and 800 ml volume allows a faster cycle rate, which is why 4C100 achieves 4,600 bph while the 4C130 produces 3,200 bph and the 4C150 produces 4,000 bph. Output rate and maximum container size trade against each other as pitch increases.

When should I choose the 4C130 instead of the 4C100?

Choose the 4-cavity configuration at 130 mm pitch (4C130) when your jar requires a body diameter above 80 mm, a neck above 68 mm, or a volume above 800 ml. The 4C130 produces 3,200 bph at 110 mm body and 1,500 ml — appropriate when your jar format exceeds the 4C100's dimensional limits but your output target still requires 4-cavity throughput.

Can the machine run multiple jar formats across the shift schedule?

Yes — 4-cavity tooling is designed for changeover between formats within the 80 mm body and 68 mm neck constraints. Formats sharing the same neck finish are the fastest changeovers; formats with different body heights or wall profiles require full blow mold and preform changes. Confirm changeover compatibility and tooling interchangeability for your specific format combination with Ever-Power before ordering tooling sets.

What are the floor load requirements for this machine?

4,000 kg on a 4,170 x 1,930 mm footprint — approximately 497 kg/m². Standard factory floors rated at 500 kg/m² typically accommodate this without reinforcement, though confirmation from a structural engineer is recommended before installation. The 2,340 mm machine height requires clearance for service access and, where applicable, overhead crane access for 4-cavity mold change.

How does inter-cavity consistency compare to 2-cavity machines?

Inter-cavity consistency on the 4C100 is managed through the 92-position preform holder, which provides extended and uniform infrared conditioning across all four preform streams before each blow cycle. Factory acceptance testing covers all four positions simultaneously — not just one representative cavity. Any inter-cavity variance above the acceptance threshold is corrected during commissioning before the machine leaves the factory.
