HGA.FS-1CG130

Single-Cavity Servo Blow Molding Machine  ·  Wide-Mouth Jar  ·  PET / PETG  ·  Max 110 mm Body  ·  CE + ISO 9001:2015

The HGA.FS series is a dedicated single-cavity configuration within the HGA cosmetic and daily chemical blow molding range — purpose-built for wide-mouth jar, cream container, and canister formats where the neck diameter is large relative to the body diameter and where single-cavity running allows precise process control per mold without multi-cavity timing synchronisation constraints. The FS-1CG130 is the 130 mm pitch model in this series.

Single-cavity running provides full process parameter control over every jar produced — stretch rod timing, blow pressure profile, infrared zone temperature, and cooling time are all set and optimised for one cavity geometry without compromise for a second cavity. For wide-mouth jar formats where the neck-to-body ratio is high and the blow ratio geometry is more complex than standard bottles, single-cavity control is the architecturally correct approach to consistent wall-thickness distribution and jar clarity.

The 98 mm maximum neck diameter covers the wide-mouth jar closure standards used across premium body care, hair care, cosmetic cream, and specialty household chemical canister formats. A 98 mm neck opening enables direct scoop or spatula access to viscous products — body scrubs, hair masks, premium moisturisers, and body butters — making the jar format both functional and compatible with the premium presentation standard those products require at retail.

At 2,500 x 1,200 x 1,800 mm and 1,500 kg, the HGA.FS-1CG130 is the most compact machine in the HGA cosmetic series. The single-cavity design also requires the lowest utility infrastructure of any machine in the range — 300–500 L/min high-pressure air, 15 L/min cooling water, 15 KW maximum heating power. This makes it suitable for small production facilities, dedicated jar lines alongside existing bottle production, and new market entrants adding wide-mouth jar capability without large capital infrastructure investment.

Premium cosmetic cream jars and body care wide-mouth containers are increasingly specified in PETG for its superior optical clarity — allowing the product colour and texture to be visible through the jar wall, which is a premium presentation requirement for high-end skin care and body care brands. The zone-level digital infrared heating system on the HGA.FS-1CG130 maintains the precise preform temperature profile PETG requires, and single-cavity running eliminates cavity-to-cavity temperature variation as a source of clarity inconsistency.

The 250 mm stretching stroke on the FS-1CG130 is shorter than the 350–400 mm stretching strokes on the multi-cavity bottle machines — reflecting the low-height jar geometry where the container height is typically 80 mm to 130 mm versus 200–260 mm for bottles. The shorter stroke is precisely matched to the jar format, ensuring the stretch rod operates within the correct axial stretch ratio for the jar height without over-stretching the base or under-stretching the sidewall.

Servo-driven actuation provides precise control of mold open and close, stretch rod advance, and take-out — all critical for consistent jar production. Wide-mouth jar geometry is more sensitive to stretch rod timing precision than standard bottle formats because the shorter axial stretch distance means that timing errors translate more directly into base-thickness variation. Servo precision directly addresses this process sensitivity.

Wide-mouth facial cream jars, moisturiser containers, eye cream packaging, and premium skin care tubs from 30 ml to 500 ml in PET and PETG. The single-cavity configuration provides the per-jar process control that premium cosmetic quality specifications require. PETG clarity allows the product colour and texture to show through the jar wall — an increasingly important premium presentation requirement for high-end facial care brands.

Wide-mouth body butter tubs, body scrub containers, and exfoliating product packaging from 200 ml to 1,000 ml. These products require direct scoop or spatula access — the 98 mm neck diameter enables the wide opening that scoop access demands while maintaining a jar profile that presents well on the body care retail shelf. PET for standard body scrub; PETG for premium body butter where product colour presentation is a brand requirement.

Wide-mouth hair mask containers, deep conditioning treatment jars, and professional hair care packaging from 100 ml to 500 ml. Premium hair care packaging increasingly uses wide-mouth PETG jars where product visibility and premium tactile presentation at retail are brand differentiators. The 98 mm neck covers the wide-mouth closure standards standard in professional and premium hair care.

Wide-mouth household chemical canisters, powder detergent containers, multipurpose cleaning product tubs, and wide-neck refill canisters in PET from 200 ml to 1,000 ml. The 110 mm body diameter and 98 mm neck serve the canister and tub formats used in household cleaning and laundry product categories where wide-mouth access for scoop dosing is a functional packaging requirement.

"We produce PETG cream jars and eye cream containers — 50 ml and 150 ml formats with 98 mm neck diameter for a premium skin care brand. Quality specification includes wall-thickness uniformity and optical clarity. The single-cavity FS machine delivers both consistently. We tried a 2-cavity configuration before and had cavity-to-cavity thickness variation we could not resolve. The single-cavity machine eliminated that issue."

Machine: HGA.FS-1CG130

"We manufacture body scrub jars and body butter tubs — 300 ml and 500 ml PET formats. Wide neck opening is essential for scoop access. The FS-1CG130 handles the wide-mouth jar geometry well. Output at 650 to 700 pieces per hour suits our production volume without over-investing in a multi-cavity machine. Commissioning support was thorough and the process parameters were set correctly from the first day."

Machine: HGA.FS-1CG130

"We produce household chemical canisters — wide-mouth powder detergent containers in PET at 600 ml and 1,000 ml. The machine handles the jar geometry consistently. For our volumes, single-cavity output is adequate. We would note that preform design for wide-mouth jars requires more attention than standard bottles — the Ever-Power team advised us on this before we ordered the mold and the advice was accurate."

Machine: HGA.FS series

"We export PETG hair mask jars — 200 ml wide-mouth format for a professional hair care brand. Optical clarity and neck-finish dimensional consistency are both buyer requirements. The FS-1CG130 meets both. The compact machine footprint fitted into our existing production space without moving anything. Utility requirements were also much lower than we expected — very manageable for a compact jar operation."

Q1: Why is single-cavity configuration preferred for wide-mouth jar production?

Wide-mouth jar geometry — where the neck diameter is a high proportion of the body diameter — presents a more complex blow ratio situation than standard bottles. The shorter axial stretch distance means that any timing variation in the stretch-blow sequence translates more directly into base-thickness or sidewall-thickness variation than in tall bottle formats. Single-cavity running allows the process engineer to optimise stretch rod timing, blow pressure profile, and preform temperature zone settings for one specific jar geometry without compromise for a second cavity, delivering better per-jar consistency.

Q2: What is the output rate for wide-mouth jar production?

Theoretical output is 600–800 pieces per hour (pph). Wide-mouth jar production rates are expressed in pph rather than bph because the shorter container height and wider geometry requires a longer cooling dwell per cycle than standard bottle formats at equivalent volume. Actual output varies with specific jar geometry, wall thickness requirements, resin grade, and cooling water temperature. Contact Ever-Power with your jar drawing and production requirements for an accurate output estimate.

Q3: Can the machine produce PETG cream jars with full optical clarity?

Yes. The zone-level digital infrared heating system provides the preform temperature precision PETG requires. Single-cavity running eliminates cavity-to-cavity temperature variation as a source of clarity inconsistency. For PETG wide-mouth jars, the preform design is particularly important — the preform wall distribution must be carefully specified for the wide-mouth jar geometry to achieve consistent clarity across the jar sidewall. Contact Ever-Power with your PETG grade and jar drawing for preform design guidance before ordering tooling.

Q4: How does preform design for wide-mouth jars differ from standard bottle preforms?

Wide-mouth jar preforms start with a large neck finish that is a high proportion of the eventual body diameter. This means the preform body must be shorter and the wall distribution must be specified to allow the material to distribute from a large-neck start to a body profile only modestly wider than the neck — very different from standard bottle preforms where the neck is narrow relative to the body. Incorrect preform design for wide-mouth jars is the most common source of wall-thickness inconsistency in this format. Ever-Power's technical team can review or recommend a preform specification for your specific jar drawing before tooling is ordered.

Q5: What compressed air specification is required?

Low pressure: 7 kg/cm² at 300 L/min. High pressure: 20–30 kg/cm² at 300–500 L/min. These are the lowest air requirements of any machine in the HGA cosmetic series — significantly lower than multi-cavity bottle machines. An oil-free air compressor is recommended for cosmetic jar packaging.

Q6: What is the machine footprint and how does it compare to multi-cavity machines?

2,500 mm (L) x 1,200 mm (W) x 1,800 mm (H), 1,500 kg — the most compact machine in the HGA cosmetic series by both footprint and weight. The HGA.ES-2C130 (for comparison) is 3,600 x 1,800 x 1,980 mm at 3,000 kg. The FS-1CG130 fits in a significantly smaller production space and requires a fraction of the utility infrastructure, making it accessible for facilities that cannot accommodate larger multi-cavity machines.

Q7: What certifications does the machine carry?

CE marking and ISO 9001:2015 are standard on all HGA series machines. CE Declaration of Conformity available for review before order. Factory acceptance test report on buyer-specified preform and jar format supplied at delivery. Additional documentation available on request for cosmetic or food-contact packaging compliance requirements.

Q8: When should I choose a larger FS model rather than the FS-1CG130?

Choose the FS-1CG150 when your jar body diameter exceeds 110 mm or your neck diameter exceeds 98 mm. Choose the FS-1CG196 or FS-1CG220 for bulk jar and canister formats with very large opening diameters. If your jar falls within the FS-1CG130 capacity envelope — body diameter up to 110 mm, neck diameter up to 98 mm, volume up to 1,000 ml, height up to 130 mm — the 1CG130 is the correct model. Contact Ever-Power with your jar drawing for a confirmed model recommendation.
