JM-PET/S2

Superior PET Preforms. Born from Superior Technology.

The JM-PET/S2 is a comprehensive PET preform production system designed to deliver tangible benefits to your production floor. Specialised 25:1 PET screw delivers optimal melt quality and material integrity for crystal-clear beverage preforms, flawless cosmetic bottles, and consistent pharmaceutical packaging. High-speed wear-resistant hydraulic motor ensures durable, high-throughput recovery with low wear for years of consistent melt quality. 

Built for easy, reliable operation. Optimised ejector with greater stroke and force handles a wide range of complex preform molds. Anti-contamination design and stainless steel product chute are standard for food-grade and pharmaceutical production. Large water manifold reduces blockage and improves cooling stability.

Oilless bushings on moving platen for cleaner operation. Optional eDrive boosts production efficiency 10-30% through simultaneous plasticising. From beverage and edible oil to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, the JM-PET/S2 makes PET preforms easy.

FAQ

01What Industries Is The JM-PET/S2 Designed For?

The JM-PET/S2 serves three primary industries: Food and Beverage (edible oil, drinks, mineral water, seasoning bottles), Cosmetics (skincare bottles with flawless colour and clarity), and Pharmaceuticals (pill bottles requiring consistent quality and precision).

The specialised PET screw handles both crystal-clear and opaque preforms, and the anti-contamination design meets the hygiene standards required across all three industries.

Everything on the JM-PET/S2 is optimised specifically for PET processing. The specialised 25:1 PET screw delivers optimal melt without degrading the material. The anti-contamination design and stainless steel product chute are standard, not optional.

The ejector is enlarged with longer stroke for the complex molds typical of preform production. The PET-specialised feed-throat prevents moisture issues. And the enlarged power pack is standard for the higher injection pressures PET requires. A standard machine would need significant modifications to match this level of PET-specific optimisation.

eDrive is Chen Hsong’s optional servo-electric plasticising system. It enables simultaneous plasticising during mold open/close and ejection, which boosts production efficiency by 10-30% depending on the application.

For high-volume PET preform production where cycle time directly affects profitability, the efficiency gain typically pays for itself within months.

The JM-PET/S2 is available in seven models from 160 to 560 tonnes: JM160, JM200, JM260, JM320, JM400, JM480, and JM560. Larger models offer dual screw diameter options for flexibility between shot weight and injection pressure. Shot weight ranges from 527g to 3829g (PET).

Yes. The JM-PET/S2 includes a standard robot interface with connectors and a 12″ touch-screen controller that is fully networkable for Industry 4.0 integration. Valve gates control is standard for hot runner systems.

Chen Hsong provides installation, training, maintenance, and technical support through more than 120 service locations worldwide. The JM-PET/S2 is supported by dedicated PET processing specialists with expertise in preform production optimisation.
