Question 1

What is a jerrycan blow molding machine?

Accepted Answer

A jerrycan blow molding machine is an extrusion blow molding machine configured to produce HDPE jerrycans and chemical drums from 5L to 30L. It extrudes HDPE pellets into a parison, clamps the mold, blows air to form the shape, then ejects automatically.

Sailwin machines include 100-point parison control, servo hydraulic drive, robotic arm takeout and auto deflashing as standard.

Question 2

What size jerrycan can the machine produce?

Accepted Answer

Sailwin jerrycan blow molding machines produce containers from 5L to 30L. The SW-S5L / SW-2S5L models produce 5L jerrycans; the SW-S12L / SW-2S12L produce 5L to 12L; and the SW-S30L / SW-2S30L produce up to 30L industrial drums. All models can switch container sizes by changing the mold — no machine modification required.

Question 3

Can the jerrycan blow molding machine produce UN 3H1 / 3H2 certified containers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sailwin jerrycan blow molding machines can produce UN 3H1 and 3H2 certified HDPE containers with the appropriate mold design and material specification. The 100-point parison wall thickness controller ensures consistent wall distribution required for hazardous goods certification. Please specify UN certification requirements when requesting a quotation so the mold design can be optimized accordingly.

Question 4

What is the output of a jerrycan blow molding machine?

Accepted Answer

Output depends on container size and machine configuration. For 5L jerrycans, the SW-S5L single station produces 700 pcs/h; the double station SW-2S5L produces 1,400 pcs/h. For 12L, the SW-S12L produces 600 pcs/h; SW-2S12L produces 1,200 pcs/h. For 20–30L drums, SW-S30L produces 360 pcs/h; SW-2S30L produces 720 pcs/h.

Question 5

What is a 100-point parison controller and why does it matter for jerrycans?

Accepted Answer

A 100-point parison controller adjusts the die gap at 100 programmable positions during extrusion, controlling wall thickness at every point of the container height.

This prevents sagging on large jerrycans, ensures UN-grade thickness consistency, and reduces material waste. Standard on all Sailwin jerrycan machines.

Question 6

What is the difference between single station and double station jerrycan blow molding machines?

Accepted Answer

A single station machine has one mold clamp unit and one blow station. A double station machine has two clamping units operating alternately, effectively doubling output while the extruder runs continuously. Double station models (SW-2S5L, SW-2S12L, SW-2S30L) offer significantly higher output per unit of floor space and energy. They are recommended when daily production requirements exceed the output of a single station machine.

Question 7

Can the machine produce integrated handle jerrycans?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sailwin jerrycan blow molding machines support integrated handle molding — the handle is blown as part of the container in the same cycle, eliminating a separate handle assembly operation. The robotic arm takeout system then removes the finished jerrycan and separates the handle flash automatically. Custom handle design and size can be incorporated into the mold specification.

Question 8

What parameters do I need to provide to get an accurate jerrycan blow molding machine quote?

Accepted Answer

To receive an accurate quotation, please provide: (1) Jerrycan volume — e.g. 5L, 10L, 20L; (2) Container shape — round, rectangular, square, with or without handle; (3) Required daily output — e.g. 5,000 pcs/day; (4) Material — HDPE grade, color; (5) UN certification requirement — 3H1 or 3H2; (6) Special requirements — stackable design, embossed logo, specific neck size. Sailwin will recommend the optimal model and issue a detailed quotation within 24 hours.
