Volume is not a mold size
Two containers with the same litre rating can have very different diameters, heights and handle geometry. Check the drawing, not the capacity label.
Applications
The container decides the machine. The application decides the constraints.
Household, food, industrial and PETG packaging use overlapping machine platforms but different mold, material and handling requirements. Start with the application page closest to the product.
Household & Personal Care Packaging
Shampoo, detergent, lotion and cleaner bottles where surface quality and repeatable wall thickness matter.
View
Food & Beverage Packaging
Oil, water, juice, dairy and food bottles, from small formats to multi-litre containers.
View
Industrial & Chemical Containers
Jerrycans, drums and chemical bottles for lubricants, agricultural chemicals, cleaning products and industrial liquids.
View
PETG Clear Packaging
Transparent bottles, jars and shaped containers where clarity, gloss and surface finish drive the specification.
ViewApplication fit
Materials, typical parts and starting platforms.
The recommended series is a starting point, not an automatic selection. Mold dimensions, output and container geometry decide the final model.

Common mistakes
Three checks that prevent the wrong platform.
Application pages are a useful starting point, but they are not a substitute for the container drawing and mold review.
Output is not extruding capacity
Extruding capacity is plastic throughput in kg/hr. Finished output = cavities × good parts per cavity per cycle × cycles per hour, using measured cycle time and scrap rate.
Material compatibility needs a review
The catalog material list is a starting scope. The resin grade, drying, temperature, food-contact or chemical requirement still need confirmation.
Next step
Start with the closest application.
Send the container drawing, material and target output. The application page narrows the conversation; the drawing and mold review narrow the machine.
