ZQ60HE — High-Speed Fully Electric Injection Blow Moulding Machine (European Platform)
The ZQ60HE is the fully electric flagship in Zi-Qiang’s injection blow moulding machine lineup. Every machine movement — injection, clamping, carriage, and ejection — is driven by a dedicated servo motor, with zero hydraulic oil in the system. The result: a cycle 20% faster than equivalent hydraulic machines, energy consumption approximately 30% lower, and a noise floor significantly reduced — all within a compact 3 × 1.3 × 1.7 M footprint that fits pharmaceutical-grade cleanroom layouts.
At 60 tons of adjustable clamping force (400–800 KN) with an 8.2-second cycle for 30 ml bottles, the ZQ60HE delivers up to 105,000 bottles per 24-hour shift — with peak throughput reaching 115,000 bottles per day under optimized conditions. For a fully automated, high-speed injection blow moulding machine, it represents the most energy-efficient route to this output level available today.

Why This Fully Electric Injection Blow Moulding Machine Changes the Economics of Small-Bottle Production
- 1
All-Servo, Zero-Oil Architecture. Each axis has its own dedicated servo motor — injection (22 KW), feeding (18 KW), clamping (15+15 KW), carriage (1 KW), and ejection (0.4 KW). There are no hydraulic oil circuits anywhere in the machine. This eliminates oil temperature drift, seal wear, and hydraulic maintenance downtime — and reduces cleanroom contamination risk to near zero for pharmaceutical and food-grade production.
- 2
2.5-Second Dry Cycle — 20% Faster Than Hydraulic Machines. The servo drives respond and decelerate in milliseconds without hydraulic pressure build/release lag. For 30 ml bottles, the ZQ60HE delivers an 8.2-second production cycle — which at 24-hour continuous operation equals more than 105,000 bottles per shift, with peak output reaching 115,000 bottles per day.
- 3
15%–25% Operating Power Draw — Industry-Leading Efficiency. Because the servo motors only draw power during active motion, and each motor is sized precisely for its axis load, the ZQ60HE operates at just 15%–25% of its 90 KW total installed capacity in normal production. For a 30 ml bottle run, actual consumption is approximately 12 kWh per hour — versus 17+ kWh for a hydraulic machine of equivalent output.
- 4
Adjustable Clamping Force — 40 to 80 Tons in a Single Machine. The special servo clamping structure allows operators to set injection clamping force anywhere between 400 KN and 800 KN from the HMI, without mechanical adjustments. This single-machine flexibility means one ZQ60HE can run both thin-walled lightweight bottles and thick-walled pharmaceutical containers on the same shift.
- 5
Bottom-Up Design for Hygiene-Critical Lines. The injection unit sits below the mold plane, ensuring no lubricant path passes above the mold or product stream. Pharmaceutical packaging operations can integrate the ZQ60HE into ISO-class cleanrooms without additional shielding — a direct requirement for GMP-certified bottle production in Canada and the US.
- 6
Visual Inspection and Downstream Automation Ready. The rear conveyor exit is designed to accept inline vision inspection systems that check for foreign particles, material voids at the bottle neck, and uneven base formation — enabling lights-out, fully unattended production. The conveyor can also interface with leak testers, labelers, and automated packaging lines as a single connected cell.
Applications — Where the ZQ60HE Injection Blow Moulding Machine Outperforms Hydraulic Alternatives
High-Speed Pharmaceutical Bottles
Eye drops (5–15 ml), oral liquid bottles (30–100 ml), and blister packs requiring zero-contamination production and sub-second repeatable neck dimensions.
Cosmetics Miniatures & Travel-Size
Hotel amenity sets, sample perfume vials, and travel-size skin care — where high cavitation at 10–30 ml is required alongside perfectly consistent gloss surface finish.
Food-Grade Small Containers
Single-serve condiment bottles, portion-control dairy containers, and nutritional supplement jars in HDPE or PP where wall thickness control is critical to shelf-life.
Veterinary & Nutraceutical Packaging
HDPE dosing bottles for veterinary medicines and supplement liquids where the one-step injection blow moulding process eliminates contamination risk from two-step reheat systems.

FAQ — ZQ60HE Injection Blow Moulding Machine
Q: What is the actual energy consumption of the ZQ60HE injection blow moulding machine in production?
For 30 ml bottles, measured energy consumption is approximately 12 kWh per hour — about 30% lower than a hydraulic injection blow moulding machine producing the same output. Over a 6,000-hour annual production schedule, this difference can represent 30,000 kWh in savings, or roughly CAD $3,000–$4,500 per year at average Ontario industrial electricity rates.
Q: Is the ZQ60HE suitable for pharmaceutical-grade production in Canada?
Yes. The machine’s bottom-up injection unit design keeps all mechanical and lubrication components below the mold plane, preventing any contamination path into the bottle-forming zone. The fully electric servo architecture eliminates hydraulic oil from the system entirely. Both features align with Health Canada GMP guidelines for pharmaceutical packaging machinery and are frequently specified by Canadian pharmaceutical converters for exactly this reason.
Q: Can the ZQ60HE replace a Jomar IBM65 or SUMA 65iB?
The ZQ60HE occupies the same tonnage class as the Jomar IBM65 and SUMA 65iB. Its injection weight (280/360 g) significantly exceeds the Jomar IBM65 at 205 g and is competitive with the SUMA 65iB at 169/264 g. The ZQ60HE’s platen (600 × 420 mm) aligns closely with the SUMA 65iB (620 × 400 mm), so most 65-class mold tooling will be dimensionally compatible. Unlike the hydraulic Jomar and SUMA options, the ZQ60HE delivers the additional benefit of full servo-electric operation.
Q: What automation peripherals can integrate with the ZQ60HE?
The ZQ60HE’s conveyor exit is pre-wired for connection to vision inspection systems (foreign particle detection, material voids, bottle base uniformity), leak testers, labeling machines, and automatic case packers. Zi-Qiang can supply peripheral integration wiring diagrams and communication protocols for third-party automation equipment at the time of machine order.
Q: How does the absolute-encoder servo system improve repeatability?
Absolute encoders on each servo axis retain position data even after a power cycle — the machine does not need a homing routine on restart. This ensures the ZQ60HE resumes production with identical axis positions after planned or unplanned stops, eliminating the first-shot rejects common in hydraulic machines that require re-warm-up cycles to stabilize cavity pressure.
Q: What materials can the ZQ60HE injection blow moulding machine process?
The ZQ60HE processes PP, HDPE, LDPE, PS, PC, PET, PETG, PEN, and PMMA. The 45/50 mm dual-diameter screw option allows material-specific shear rate optimization — particularly useful for high-clarity PETG cosmetics bottles or high-viscosity PP pharmaceutical packaging where screw selection directly affects IV degradation rates.
