The 4C130 produces 3,200 bph versus the 2C130's 1,800 bph — a 78% increase in output at the same pitch, body diameter, and neck specification. For operations that have validated their jar format on the 2C130 and are facing an output constraint, the 4C130 is the direct scale-up without any change to jar geometry, neck finish, or closure tooling.

The 4C130 shares the same 130 mm cavity pitch, 110 mm body ceiling, 98 mm neck ceiling, and 1,500 ml maximum volume as the 2C130. Operations scaling from 2-cavity to 4-cavity at this pitch carry forward their jar specification, preform design, and closure tooling unchanged — the machine configuration changes, the jar does not.

The 92-position preform holder provides extended infrared conditioning across four simultaneous preform streams at 130 mm pitch. All four preforms receive identical zone-level heating profiles before reaching the blow station — the holder capacity ensures consistent through-wall temperature distribution at 3,200 bph cycle rate across all four positions.

Factory acceptance testing covers inter-cavity weight, wall thickness, height, and optical clarity across all four positions before shipment. For operations supplying national retail, the 4-position test confirms that every container in the production run — not just from one representative cavity — meets specification. The full ISBM mold tooling range is available from Ever-Power for custom jar profiles.

35 kg/cm² · 6,000 L/min · Oil-free required · Higher than 2-cavity machines — confirm compressor sizing from Ever-Power spec

8–12 °C · 40 L/min · Four-cavity mold cooling for consistent inter-cavity wall uniformity

7 kg/cm² · 800 L/min · Preform conveying and mold actuation across 4 cavities at 130 mm pitch

"We scaled from the 2C130 to the 4C130 when our honey jar volumes grew beyond 1,800 bph capacity. The transition was straightforward — same pitch, same neck finish, same preform specification. Jar geometry and closure tooling carried forward without any modification. 3,200 bph now covers our peak season requirements without needing a second machine. Inter-cavity consistency across all four positions has been within tolerance since day one."

"We produce condiment jars from 200 ml to 1,200 ml for national retail distribution. The 4C130 at 3,200 bph matches our filling line speed and single-shift output target. We chose the 4C130 over running two 2C130 machines because one machine requires less floor space, one set of utilities, and one operator per shift. The 6,000 L/min compressor requirement was clearly documented — we sized our installation correctly from the Ever-Power spec sheet."

"Contract packer producing five sauce and pickle jar SKUs for retail customers. The 4C130 lets us run high volume on each SKU per shift with tooling changeover between SKUs. Machine performance has been consistent across all four cavities. Important practical note: at 6,500 kg and 5,450 mm length this is a substantially larger machine than the 2-cavity models — floor preparation and overhead clearance for mold changeover required real planning. Verify your site before ordering."

What is the difference between the 4C130 and the 2C130?

Both machines use the same 130 mm cavity pitch, 110 mm body ceiling, 98 mm neck ceiling, and 1,500 ml maximum volume — the jar format specification is identical. The 4C130 runs four cavities simultaneously versus two on the 2C130, delivering 3,200 bph versus 1,800 bph. The 4C130 is heavier (6,500 kg vs 3,000 kg), longer (5,450 mm vs 3,600 mm), and requires higher compressed air supply (6,000 L/min vs 1,000–1,500 L/min). Choose the 4C130 when your production target exceeds 1,800 bph at this jar format.

Can I use the same tooling from my 2C130 on the 4C130?

The jar geometry — body diameter, neck diameter, height, and volume — is fully compatible between the two machines at the same pitch, and preform specifications carry forward without change. However, 4-cavity tooling (blow mold set, neck insert set) is a physically different tooling set from 2-cavity tooling and cannot be shared directly between machines. The jar design and specification transfer; new tooling sets made to the same jar specification are required for the 4C130. Contact Ever-Power to discuss tooling transition for your specific jar format.

Why does the 4C130 require 6,000 L/min compressed air versus 1,000–1,500 L/min on the 2C130?

Four blow cycles occur simultaneously per machine cycle on the 4C130 versus two on the 2C130 — requiring proportionally higher sustained air flow to complete all four cavity blow events within the same cycle time at 35 kg/cm² blowing pressure. The 6,000 L/min figure represents the minimum flow to consistently achieve full-volume blow across all four cavities at 3,200 bph. Confirm compressor sizing from Ever-Power's utility specification document before procurement.

When should I choose the 4C150 instead?

Choose the HGA.ES-4C150 (4,000 bph) when your jar requires a body diameter above 110 mm, a neck above 98 mm, or a volume above 1,500 ml at 4-cavity output. The 4C150 provides 130 mm body, 110 mm neck, and 2,500 ml at a higher output rate than the 4C130 — it is the wider-format 4-cavity configuration.

What are the floor load and space requirements?

6,500 kg on a 5,450 x 2,070 mm footprint — approximately 577 kg/m². Confirm floor load capacity with a structural engineer before installation. Machine height is 2,320 mm; confirm overhead clearance for service access and crane access for 4-cavity mold changeover. Allow lateral clearance for bottle outlet conveyor and downstream sorting equipment sized for 3,200 bph output.
