Aoki has enabled the molding of ultra-thick-walled containers of a quality thought to be almost impossible up to now. The ability to mold thick-walled containers that feel like glass expands the potential for plastic containers.
A single stage, 3-station mechanism enables the molding of thick-walled containers with less energy than other molding methods.
Products with a thickness of over 5mm have been molded.
In such thick-walled containers because amorphous resins are used, transparency is maintained, adding to the value of the container.
If the molded products are large (more than 100mL), limitations will apply to maximum thickness.
