Energy saving production: SIPA Sincro Bloc for Permanis
New Sipa Sincro Bloc line with a “green” approach:
Integrated Rotary Blowing / Filling / Capping System
This line includes also SIPA’s Sincro Bloc integrated system for blowing, filling and capping PET bottles.
Sincro Bloc has been developed and produced with the highest technological standards, reflecting
an intrinsic “green”-oriented concept geared towards helping the user mini-mize their carbon footprint.
That is why SIPA recently installed a Sincro Bloc at the Permanis plant in Bangi, in the Malaysian state of Selangor,
together with a mass blender for preparing concentrates for various PepsiCo brand drinks.
The Sincro Bloc’s state-of-the art solution provides numerous tangible and relevant savings in energy,
water and compressed air, starting with the SIPA rotary blowmolder SFR EVO.
This has significant energy saving features that include: a new oven design that runs at lower temperatures and uses
around 15% less heating energy; quick process set-up; and very effective preform neck and bottle base cooling.
In addition to this, the patented ARS Plus, for the recovery of blowing compressed air, allows for a total saving of air
up to 50% compared to traditional blowing stations.
This also makes it possible to reduce the size of the compressor.
With filling taking place directly after blowing, there is no need for air conveyors, providing savings
in energy consumption of around 50 kW/h.
Furthermore this configuration needs no rinser, providing additional significant water savings of
approximately 3600 litres/hour.
Another main advantage of the Sincro Bloc is its ability to produce lighter containers than a traditional line,
thanks to the reduced mechanical stress put on the empty containers during their transport from blower to filler.
SIPA’s Isotronic electronic filler makes it possible to fill Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSDs, such as Pepsi Cola or Mountain Dew)
at 18°C rather than the tradition temperature of 12°C, providing a major impact on energy reduction
(for one thing, cooling of the product is not needed) of approx. 60 kW/h.
All told, you could say that thanks to the partnership between Permanis and SIPA, the world is a little greener than it was!
