HGA.ES-4C114 Water Beverage Pesticide Chemical Bottle Blow Molding Machine

HGA.ES-4C114

4 Cavities · 114 mm Pitch · 94 mm Body · PET Bottle

94 mm Body · 88 mm Neck · 1,300 ml — Wide-Body at 4-Cavity Scale

The 4C114 covers the same body and neck as the 2C114.3 — at 65% more output. It is the correct 4-cavity platform when bottle format requires a body wider than 80 mm or a neck wider than 68 mm, and volume extends to 1,300 ml.

The 4C114 produces 3,300 bph versus the 2C114.3's 2,000 bph — a 65% increase at the same 94 mm body and 88 mm neck specification. For operations that have validated their bottle format on the 2C114.3 and face a throughput constraint, the 4C114 is the direct scale-up with no change to jar geometry, preform design, or closure tooling.

The 100-position preform holder is the largest in the 4-cavity machines of this series — providing extended infrared conditioning across four simultaneous wide-body preform streams at 114 mm pitch. The larger holder compensates for the increased preform mass at 94 mm body, maintaining consistent through-wall temperature at 3,300 bph cycle rate. See the full series range.

The 1,300 ml maximum volume extends beyond the 4C100's 800 ml ceiling and approaches the 4C130's 1,500 ml — covering large-format single-serve beverages (the 1,250 ml format popular in Korea and SEA), 1-litre chemical containers, and automotive fluid bottles where a tall 94 mm body is the specified format. The 330 mm maximum height accommodates the tall bottle profiles required at 1,300 ml in this body diameter.

At 5,500 kg and 5,120 x 2,150 mm, the 4C114 is the largest and heaviest machine in the 4-cavity range of this series. A dedicated factory bay is typically required. Floor load confirmation by a structural engineer, 5,000 L/min compressed air infrastructure, 40 L/min chiller capacity, and 50 KW maximum electrical supply all require advance planning from Ever-Power's utility specification document.

Is tooling from the 2C114.3 compatible with the 4C114?

Both machines share the same 114 mm pitch, 94 mm body ceiling, and 88 mm neck ceiling — so preform specifications, jar drawings, and neck finish specifications carry forward without change. The blow mold tooling sets are physically different (4-cavity versus 2-cavity) and cannot be shared directly. New 4-cavity tooling sets made to the same jar drawing are required for the 4C114. Contact Ever-Power to discuss tooling transition for operations scaling from 2-cavity to 4-cavity at this pitch.

When should I choose the 4C130 instead of the 4C114?

Choose the HGA.ES-4C130 when your bottle requires a body diameter above 94 mm, a neck above 88 mm, or a volume above 1,300 ml at 4-cavity scale. The 4C130 provides 110 mm body, 98 mm neck, and 1,500 ml at 3,200 bph — marginally lower output but a significantly wider format envelope. If your bottle fits within 94 mm body and 88 mm neck, the 4C114 provides higher output (3,300 bph) at lower weight (5,500 kg vs 6,500 kg).

Why does this machine require 5,000 L/min high-pressure air — more than the 4C100 at 4,000 L/min?

The larger preform volume at 94 mm body and up to 1,300 ml requires more air per blow cycle than the 80 mm / 800 ml preforms on the 4C100. With four cavities blowing simultaneously, the sustained flow requirement scales with preform volume per cycle. 5,000 L/min at 35 kg/cm² is the minimum flow to consistently complete all four cavity blow events within the cycle time at 3,300 bph. Confirm from Ever-Power's utility specification document before compressor procurement.

What does the variable container height (250–330 mm) mean in practice?

The 250–330 mm height range reflects the machine's capacity to produce bottles of different heights within the 94 mm body and 1,300 ml volume ceiling. A standard 1,000 ml bottle at 94 mm body is typically around 250 mm tall; a taller 1,300 ml bottle at the same body diameter may reach 320–330 mm. Confirm that your specific bottle height is within the machine's stretching stroke (400 mm) capability for your preform length. Submit your bottle drawing to Ever-Power for a feasibility review before ordering tooling.
