Solution

Weight optimisation for PET preforms and bottles

preforms carry weight reserve; deviations are not detected early; the rPET share is not tracked by batch.

← Back to solutions

Sector

PET packaging manufacturers; exact C22 code confirmed.

INDICATIVE NACE CODE

Process

PET drying → preform production → blow moulding → control → palletising.

Problem

preforms carry weight reserve; deviations are not detected early; the rPET share is not tracked by batch.

What the solution includes

fast checkweighers; cameras; press and blow-moulding data; batch link PET/rPET; QMS tests.

What changes

less PET per bottle and documented recycled content.

How the result is measured

What we measure
g PET / good bottle
Baseline
weight samples by series
Target
AFTER DIAGNOSTICafter testing
Evidence
checkweigher, recipe, strength protocol.

Business effect

a small unit change accumulates over high production volumes.

Component parts

Physical assets

ДМА — press, blow-moulder, dryer, checkweighers

Software and integration

ДНА — weight and batch control.

Indicative investment

The concrete value is set per client after technical design and current quotations.

Who does what

PixelAutomate

EvroPixel builds the weight model and traceability.

Required partners

PET technologist and strength/food-contact laboratory.

What to keep in mind

rPET requirements for food contact; pressure and transport resistance; material certification.
