Dropper
Bottles
Jomar
IBM machines are installed in clean manufacturing environments worldwide.
The bottles can be stripped from the core rods while still very hot
and transported to the clean room in sterile air for packing. 10ml
Droppers - 6 cavities on Model 15 - up to 34 cavities on a M175
Injectables
Usually PP and treated in the same way as the dropper bottle. They
are usually gamma radiated or autoclaved before or after filling.
Tablet and Pill Bottles
These are made from PP, HDPE, LDPE and PS. These bottles can be designed
with complicated injected neck finishes for child resistance or pilfer-proofing.
The neck finish is excellent for barrier seals against moisture with
a plug seal closure -- and very flat for tamper foil application.
Mascaras
These are made in PVC, PP, PET, HDPE. Small necks make EBM difficult.
IBM process advantage include the quality of the neck and surface
gloss finish and ease of manufacture. PVC specially developed for
IBM can be moulded in virgin form without degradation.
Liquid Paper
These are made of Barex, PET (some PVC) for ease of processing expensive
materials with no scrap.
Jars
These are made in PP, HDPE, PS, MIPS, SAN etc. Jars are made in
a wide variety of materials. The process advantage is that no secondary
trimming (scrap) is required when making the neck finish. Ovaloid
neck (petroleum jelly) jars can be made by injection moulding the
neck finish. Multi-cavity moulds can be built to produce 16 x 4
oz. jars in 10 secs in PS.
Ovals, Cylindricals and Boston Rounds
These bottles are made in HDPE, LDPE, PP. Up to 24 cavity moulds
from 10-15 second cycles. Quality products do not cause problems
on decoration, filling or capping lines -- and are less liable to
bring customer complaints. PVC can be used for containers up to 200
ml only.
One-piece Roll-on Deodorants in
PP and HDPE.
Close tolerance of the injection moulded ball seating allows an
even application of the deodorant product. Snap-on ball housings
are available on SAN and PET bottles used for clarity.
Baby Bottles
These are made in polycarbonate (and disposable ones in PP). PC
is a very expensive and difficult material to process on EBM. IBM
uses mainly virgin material and saves on waste.
Miscellaneous Uses
Some other uses include the production of bellows, laboratory ware,
Christmas tree balls, light globes, fish bowls, flower vases and
bowls, wash balls, lemons, etc.
