EP-ZQ110 Full Technical Specifications

The EP-ZQ110 closely matches the BLOMA IBM135 class on injection weight (540 g vs 560 g) and delivers a 1100 x 460 mm platen — 200 mm longer than the 900 x 480 mm of the BLOMA IBM135. The machine envelope is substantially smaller: 0.5 m shorter in length, 0.3 m narrower and 0.7 m lower. The 5+N barrel zone configuration and dual 22 kW hydraulic system are standard at this class.

Cavity Output by Bottle Volume

The EP-ZQ110 reaches 24 cavities at 10 ml and 14 at 100 ml. Its 1100 mm platen length — 200 mm greater than the 900 mm of the BLOMA IBM135 — is the primary enabler for these higher cavity counts at small and medium bottle volumes, where horizontal layout space is the binding constraint.

Engineering Features of the EP-ZQ110

200 mm Longer Platen: 1100 mm vs 900 mm

The EP-ZQ110 platen of 1100 x 460 mm is 200 mm longer than the 900 x 480 mm of the BLOMA IBM135. This additional horizontal layout space is the key enabler for 24-cavity configurations at 10 ml and wider multi-cavity layouts at 30 and 60 ml, supporting higher per-shift output on pharmaceutical vial and nutraceutical bottle lines.

Close Injection Weight: 540 g vs 560 g

The EP-ZQ110 delivers 540 g injection weight versus 560 g for the BLOMA IBM135 — a 3.5% difference that is negligible across the standard bottle volume range of 1 ml to 2000 ml. Preform weight for the largest containers in this range is well within 540 g for all common HDPE, PP and PCTG specifications.

Substantially Smaller: 5 x 1.8 x 2.2 m vs 5.5 x 2.1 x 2.9 m

The EP-ZQ110 is 0.5 m shorter, 0.3 m narrower and 0.7 m lower than the BLOMA IBM135 class. At 2.2 m height versus 2.9 m, the EP-ZQ110 installs under standard 2.5 m industrial ceilings with comfortable clearance — a significant practical advantage that the BLOMA IBM135 class cannot offer.

5+N Barrel Zones — Finer Melt Control

Five independently controlled heating zones provide fine melt temperature management across the full 65 mm screw length. At 24-cavity production rates this is critical for maintaining gram-weight consistency, particularly for PCTG and bio-based PLA with narrow processing windows that are increasingly specified for premium pharmaceutical and nutraceutical packaging.

Dual 22 kW Hydraulic Motors — 80 kW Total

Two independent 22 kW motors power separate hydraulic circuits for injection and blow operations, allowing simultaneous action and reducing the duty cycle of each motor. At 80 kW total installed capacity with a 52 to 70% operating ratio, the EP-ZQ110 supports extended multi-shift pharmaceutical production without thermal overload.

260 mm Stripping Stroke

The 260 mm stripping stroke provides clean ejection clearance for tall pharmaceutical bottles and wide-mouth supplement jars across all 24 cavity positions. Combined with the 1100 mm platen width, it supports the most diverse bottle geometry range available in the 110-tonne ZQ class.

Key Components and Supplier Origins

The EP-ZQ110 uses the same internationally validated component supply chain as the full ZQ series. HALLITE seals from England, Festo air valves from Germany and Gefran position sensors from Italy maintain precision across the dual hydraulic system and high-precision angle divider at sustained 24-cavity production rates.

Mold Design for the EP-ZQ110

The 1100 x 460 mm platen is 200 mm longer than the BLOMA IBM135 class, accommodating wider 24-cavity mold layouts that are not possible on the narrower 900 mm BLOMA platen. Ever Power manufactures ZQ110-compatible molds from 4Cr13 stainless or S136 alloy steel injection bodies, with optional magnesium-aluminium blow bodies for high-cycle pharmaceutical production.

1100 mm Platen — 200 mm Longer Than BLOMA IBM135

The extra 200 mm platen length versus the BLOMA IBM135 class enables wider horizontal cavity layouts for 24-cavity configurations at 10 ml and optimised spacing for larger neck formats that cannot be accommodated on the shorter BLOMA platen.

Balanced 24-Position Hot Runner

Flow-path balancing and individual gate temperature control across 24 positions ensures gram-weight deviation stays within specification from first cavity to last at sustained production rates across all supported materials.

S136 Steel for Long Service Life

Imported S136 high-strength alloy steel injection mold bodies maintain cavity geometry accuracy over millions of production cycles — the right specification for high-cycle pharmaceutical applications running 24-hour shifts.

Production Line Integration

At 24 cavities the EP-ZQ110 requires matched downstream capacity. Ever Power provides complete turnkey line proposals including inspection machine throughput ratings and packing machine specification for the EP-ZQ110 output rate. The smaller machine footprint versus the BLOMA IBM135 class also simplifies line layout and downstream equipment positioning. View the full range at the IBM machines overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the EP-ZQ110 platen and injection weight compare to the BLOMA IBM135?
The EP-ZQ110 platen of 1100 x 460 mm is 200 mm longer than the 900 x 480 mm of the BLOMA IBM135, providing substantially more horizontal cavity layout space and enabling 24-cavity configurations at 10 ml. Injection weight is 540 g versus 560 g for the BLOMA IBM135 — a 3.5% difference that is negligible across the standard bottle volume range. The EP-ZQ110 machine footprint is also significantly smaller: 5 x 1.8 x 2.2 m versus 5.5 x 2.1 x 2.9 m for the BLOMA IBM135 class.
What materials can the EP-ZQ110 process?
HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS, ABS, EVA, PCTG and bio-based PLA. The 5+N barrel zone configuration provides fine independent temperature control across the 65 mm screw length, particularly beneficial for PCTG and PLA at high production rates where narrow processing windows that introduce thermal management challenges across 24 cavities.
What cavity counts does the EP-ZQ110 support?
Up to 24 cavities at 10 ml, 22 at 30 ml, 18 at 60 ml, 14 at 100 ml, 10 at 250 ml, 8 at 500 ml and 6 at 1000 ml. The 1100 mm platen length — 200 mm greater than the BLOMA IBM135 class — is the primary enabler for the highest counts at small bottle volumes.
Does the EP-ZQ110 carry CE certification?
Yes. The EP-ZQ110 is CE marked, verifying conformity with applicable European machinery safety and electromagnetic compatibility directives. CE documentation is provided with the machine and available in advance on request for import and procurement compliance.
What downstream equipment is recommended for a 24-cavity EP-ZQ110 line?
A screw air compressor, chiller and mold temperature controller are the core ancillaries. Downstream, a bottle visual inspection machine and packing machine both need to be rated for the bottles-per-minute output at 24 cavities. An auto loader on the feed side maintains steady resin supply without operator intervention. Ever Power provides complete turnkey line proposals for the EP-ZQ110 output rate.
