Engineering Features of the EP-ZQ135
1300 x 500 mm Platen — Largest in ZQ Range
The 1300 x 500 mm max platen is the widest in the ZQ series, enabling 30-cavity layouts at 10 ml and 26-cavity at 30 ml. This makes the ZQ135 the only machine in the range able to meet the output demands of the largest pharmaceutical and personal care production lines within a single machine.
Dual 37 kW Hydraulic Motors — 95 kW Total
Two independent 37 kW hydraulic motors — the highest motor power in the ZQ series — power separate circuits for injection-clamping and blow-clamping. At 95 kW total installed capacity with 52 to 70% operating ratio, the ZQ135 supports continuous multi-shift operation without thermal overload.
6+N Barrel Zones — Maximum Melt Precision
Six independently controlled barrel heating zones provide the finest melt temperature management in the ZQ range. At 30 cavities, consistent melt delivery across the full hot runner layout requires precise temperature control — the 6+N configuration provides this, particularly for engineering polymers with narrow processing windows.
200 kN Blow Clamping Force
At 200 kN, the blow clamping force of the ZQ135 is the highest in the range — necessary to maintain consistent mold closure across the widest blow mold layout at high blow pressures. This is particularly relevant for wide-neck pharmaceutical jar formats where the projected blow area is largest.
280 mm Stripping Stroke — Maximum Ejection Range
The 280 mm stripping stroke is the longest in the ZQ series, providing maximum ejection clearance for tall bottles and wide-mouth containers. Combined with the 1300 mm platen width, it accommodates the most diverse bottle geometry range available in the IBM category.
70 mm Screw — Highest Throughput in ZQ Range
The 70 mm screw delivers 650 g injection weight — the highest in the ZQ range — enabling simultaneous heavy preforms across 30 cavities or large-volume preforms for 500 ml to 2000 ml containers at high cavity counts. The 22:1 L/D ratio maintains plasticising consistency across all materials.
Internationally Sourced Components
The EP-ZQ135 requires the highest component reliability in the ZQ range given its role in continuous multi-shift production. HALLITE seals from England, Festo pneumatic valves from Germany and Ekor hydraulic pumps from Germany are specified for both dual hydraulic circuits. Gefran linear encoders from Italy provide positional accuracy across the extended 1300 mm platen span.

Mold Design for the EP-ZQ135
The 1300 x 500 mm platen of the EP-ZQ135 is the largest in the ZQ series. Ever Power engineers ZQ135-compatible molds from imported S136 alloy steel injection bodies and optional magnesium-aluminium blow bodies for optimal thermal performance at 30-cavity output rates. Hot runner balancing at 30 positions requires individual flow-path calculation and independent gate temperature control to maintain gram-weight specification across the full cavity count.
30-Position Hot Runner Balance
Individual gate temperature control and flow-path balancing across 30 positions ensures gram-weight deviation remains within specification. Each gate is independently monitored to detect and compensate for variation in real time.
Magnesium-Aluminium Blow Mold Option
At 30 cavities the blow mold thermal mass is significant. Magnesium-aluminium alloy blow bodies transfer heat from the bottle faster than steel alternatives, reducing the cooling-limited portion of the cycle and improving sustainable output rate.
Zero Scrap at 30 Cavities
No parting flash, no gate mark and no runner trim at any cavity count. At 30 cavities the material saving versus extrusion blow molding across a full production shift is substantial, particularly for HDPE generic pharmaceutical lines where resin cost is a primary variable.
Production Line Integration
The EP-ZQ135 is designed as the central production unit in a high-throughput fully integrated bottle line. At 30 cavities, downstream inspection, filling and packing equipment must be matched in capacity. Ever Power provides complete turnkey line design for the ZQ135, including equipment selection, layout optimisation and installation support.
