Krones has developed the new Contipur preform steriliser in order to optimise the hygiene level of blow-moulded PET containers, particularly for ESL products in the cold chain, and sensitive, lightly carbonated fruit-juice beverages and spritzers.
Husky Injection Molding Systems launched its new H-PET AE (all-electric) injection molding system, a small, efficient and low maintenance solution for PET preform manufacturing. Demonstrated at the K2010, H-PET AE offers lower part costs and greater energy efficiency than competitive systems in this range.
ABBA Systems and Mold-Masters announced at Drinktec 2009 that they are combining forces to sell complete PET preform mold solutions under the brand name of iPET Systems.
