Energy efficiency

new HESTA blow molding machines save energy!

The combination of the latest drive and motor concepts gives new HESTA a unique selling point in the field of energy efficiency. Compared to hydraulic machines, our electric machines save up to 50% energy:

  • Targeted shutdown of the drives during the blowing process
  • Recovering and feeding back braking energy
  • Electromechanical overload protection for the drives

The all-electric systems from new HESTA carry the "Euromap 10+" energy label.

Recycling

Sustainability and material efficiency

Doing good for the environment and reducing costs!

new HESTA makes an important contribution to sustainability in plastics processing. Time and again, we prove to our customers that blow molding processes with regranulated recyclates can run stably in our machines. In addition to the feeding and mixing of pre-consumer recyclates, new HESTA also masters processes with post-consumer recyclates - even in applications with sensitive filling materials in the packaging industry.

With our particularly compact new HESTA tubular head spiral mandrel distributors (ABA solution), you are able to produce 3-layer co-extruded bottles. In these bottles, an inner layer of post-consumer recyclates (PCR) is enclosed both inside and outside by new granulate (ABA layers). This prevents unwanted migration out of the PCR while still replacing up to 80% virgin material. With our technology, there is no detectable risk of migration from the recyclate into the filling material of your blow molded article.

Whether just by mixing in production waste (Post Production Recycling PPR), by using regranulates, regrind or regenerates through to the PCR solution (ABA layers), we are happy to support you in your mission to conserve resources, achieve sustainability and improve material efficiency. The quantity of plastic and color granules used is decisive in the cost calculation of plastic bottles.

Do something good for the environment and your cost calculation, because the use of virgin material and color granules is an important factor in the cost calculation of plastic bottles.

OEE

When selecting the optimum materials and technologies, we always keep an eye on costs as well as subsequent maintenance and servicing. The many HESTA machines on the market, some of which are decades old, are the best example of our high availability, robustness and consistently good quality, as well as the proverbial Swabian precision of our machines.

Eccentric stroke drive provides you with virtually maintenance-free wall thickness adjustment!

A well-known example of the maintenance efficiency of new HESTA machines is the use of eccentric stroke drives in the area of wall thickness regulation (WDR). Here, new HESTA relies on eccentric stroke drives specially developed for this application. These are very durable and virtually maintenance-free. Our competitors often use cheap screw jacks, which have to be lubricated regularly and have a short service life of only a few years.

Avoid damage to the mold and clamping unit

Our patented "HES stroke adjustment system": the clamping and calibration unit are monitored automatically. Incorrect clamping force settings are ruled out, preventing damage to the mold and clamping unit.

Spare parts concept

React quickly in the rare event of a machine standstill!

Despite being specifically designed for a long service life and freedom from wear, there are machine components that need to be replaced quickly in the rare event of a malfunction. This is where our proven spare parts concept comes into play:

  • High availability of wear parts for series components. The TOP100 wear parts are specifically stocked by us and therefore immediately available for our customers. In Germany we deliver within 24 hours, in Europe within 48 hours.
  • Customer-specific wear parts are defined at the start of production and you receive a stocking recommendation for your new HESTA machine.
  • in every service case, the new HESTA team fights to ensure the high availability of our machines

E-Learning

Deploy machine operators efficiently! Increase your employee efficiency with our assistance systems and e-learning modules.

Not only set-up specialists can operate new HESTA machines. The integration of smart assistance systems (e.g. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) error cause analysis, graphical adjustment of the wall thickness control process and much more) in the new HESTA control software makes otherwise often complex adjustment processes much easier.

For example, an assistance system helps your employees to identify the cause of a fault and carry out targeted troubleshooting. The new HESTA control software also makes it easier to operate the machines during the production process.

We also support your employees in their training as machine operators with the help of specifically designed e-learning modules. More productive time for employees and machines with e-learning!

Cell control

All systems centrally controlled!

The new HESTA cell control offers you a higher-level control layer in which, in addition to the pure new HESTA machine, all your peripheral devices and automation systems can be centrally controlled and integrated in a cycle time-optimized manner.

Whether granulate dryers, paint mixers, plastic granulators, material feeders, conveyor belts, cooling units, conveyors or packaging systems. We integrate your systems into our higher-level new HESTA cell control system.

Augmented reality

Repair without travel costs and loss of time!

Supported by our augmented reality concept, your maintenance staff can come into direct contact with our experts and carry out troubleshooting and repairs with support. All in the shortest possible time, without waiting for the service technician and without travel costs!

You do not need any special software for this. We simply draw the solution to your problem on the display of your Apple or Android device. Optionally, we can supply you with data glasses as a hands-free solution.

Automation

Produce 24/7 with the compact automation from new HESTA!

The most compact automation cell on the market with direct robot integration into the machine is only available from new HESTA. We offer you in our automation concept:

  • Fully automatic, visual 100 % check for material inclusions (e.g. black spots) or defective shapes
  • Fully automatic neck passage test
  • Fully automatic leak test
  • Fully automatic stacking in cartons and trays
  • Regular sampling for quality certificates
  • Up to 2 hours unmanned production time (buffer for cartons)

Are you on the way to 24/7? The new HESTA automation allows you to do so in the smallest of spaces!
