Choosing a blow molding machine requires a comprehensive consideration of production needs and cost budget. First, clarify the bottle type and specifications (e.g., PET beverage bottles or PE oil bottles) and output (semi-automatic for small batches, a few thousand per hour; fully automatic for large batches, tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands per hour). In terms of equipment type, semi-automatic (priced from a few thousand to tens of thousands of yuan) is suitable for startups but has high labor costs, while fully automatic (priced from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan) offers better long-term benefits. Core performance aspects to consider include stability (affecting yield rate), energy consumption (energy-saving and water-saving design), and mold compatibility (supporting multiple bottle types). Cost assessment includes initial investment (equipment and mold costs) and subsequent maintenance (replacement of vulnerable parts, after-sales response). Furthermore, ease of operation (intelligent control system) and adaptability to factory space should also be taken into consideration.
