HQ-5 Gallon Semi-Automatic Bottle Blowing Machine

The 5 gallon semi automatic bottle blowing machine HQ adopts manual feeding + automatic blowing design, reducing labor intensity while controlling equipment cost, which is more suitable for small-scale production than fully automatic models.Equipped with 4-zone infrared heating and hydraulic/servo mold clamping, it specializes in water dispenser bottles, edible oil containers, and chemical packaging—balancing efficiency, ease of use, and low investment.Our 5 gallon semi automatic bottle blowing machine HQ has been upgraded in 2026, with optimized heating system and mold clamping structure to further improve forming stability and reduce reject rate to less than 0.5%.

Core Advantages

As a high-compatibility semi-automatic blow molding machine for 5-gallon bottles, the HQ-5 stands out with precision heating, stable clamping, and cost-saving operation. Its core design directly addresses the pain points of small-scale manufacturers: high qualification rate, low maintenance, and flexible production.The 5 gallon semi automatic bottle blowing machine HQ supports mold customization for different neck sizes of 5 gallon bottles, meeting the diversified needs of bottled water brands.

400–800 PCS/H Adjustable Output & Cost Efficiency

The HQ-5 adopts a semi-automatic workflow: operators load preforms manually, while the machine handles automated heating, stretching, blowing, and ejection. Compared to full-automatic models, it reduces initial investment by 30%-40% and labor costs by 15%-20%. The adjustable output (400–800 PCS/H) adapts to moderate production needs, and the 2-cavity mold option can increase output to 800–1200 BPH for scaled-up production.

18.9L (5-Gallon) High Compatibility for PET/rPET

Customized for 18.9L (5-gallon) bottles, the machine supports a maximum bottle diameter of 280 mm and height of 490 mm—covering most standard water/oil/chemical bottles in the market. It is compatible with both PET and rPET materials, aligning with global sustainable production trends and meeting environmental requirements of European and American markets.

4-Zone Infrared Precision Heating System

Equipped with 4-zone infrared heating banks and independent temperature control (0–300 ℃), the HQ-5 ensures uniform preform heating. The intelligent temperature adjustment function adapts to different preform thicknesses, improving bottle clarity and forming qualification rate to over 99%. Compared to traditional models, it reduces energy waste by 10%-15%.

Hydraulic/Servo-Driven Stable Mold Clamping

The hydraulic/servo-driven mold clamping system provides high stability and long mold life, minimizing flash and defects. Its robust frame and linear guide rails ensure precise mold alignment (mold opening stroke: 350 mm), enabling 24-hour continuous operation with a failure rate below 0.5%—reducing production downtime and maintenance costs.
