Cost Control Techniques for Extrusion Blow Molding of Bottle Blowing Machine

In the process of bottle blowing machine extrusion blow molding, effective cost control can improve the economic benefits and market competitiveness of enterprises. Here are some cost control tips:

Raw material cost control
- Accurate procurement: According to production plans and market demand, accurately estimate the use of raw materials to prevent over-purchasing from causing inventory backlogs and capital occupation. Establish long-term cooperative relationships with reliable suppliers and strive for more favorable purchase prices and payment terms. At the same time, pay attention to price fluctuations in the raw material market and increase the purchase volume appropriately when prices are low.
- Material substitution and optimization: Under the premise of ensuring product quality, study the use of lower-priced but similar-performance raw materials for substitution. For example, look for more cost-effective plastic raw materials, or use mixed materials to reduce costs. In addition, optimizing the raw material formula and reducing the use of unnecessary additives can also reduce costs to a certain extent.
- Waste recycling: Classify and recycle the waste generated during the production process. Through processes such as crushing and granulation, the waste is remade into raw materials that can be used for production, reducing the waste of raw materials and procurement costs. However, attention should be paid to the quality control of the waste after recycling to ensure that it will not have a negative impact on product quality.

Equipment cost control
- Reasonable selection and configuration: When purchasing a bottle blowing machine, you should choose equipment with suitable performance and reasonable price according to factors such as production scale, product requirements and budget. Avoid excessive pursuit of high-end equipment and cause cost waste, and at the same time ensure that the equipment can meet production needs, ensure product quality and production efficiency. In addition, reasonably configure the equipment's ancillary devices and accessories to avoid unnecessary functions and configurations that increase costs.
- Regular maintenance: Establish a complete equipment maintenance system, and regularly inspect, clean, lubricate, debug and other maintenance work on the bottle blowing machine. Timely discover and solve hidden dangers of equipment failure, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce the cost of equipment repair and replacement. At the same time, do a good job of daily maintenance of the equipment, such as keeping the equipment clean, regularly replacing wearing parts, etc., to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
- Improve equipment utilization: Arrange production plans reasonably, make full use of the production capacity of the bottle blowing machine, and improve equipment utilization. Avoid equipment idleness and idling, reduce energy consumption and equipment wear. The actual production time of the equipment can be increased and the equipment cost per unit product can be reduced by optimizing the production process and improving production efficiency.

Energy cost control
- Equipment energy-saving transformation: Carry out energy-saving transformation of bottle blowing machines, and adopt energy-saving motors, heating systems and control systems. For example, changing the traditional resistance heating method to electromagnetic heating can improve heating efficiency and reduce energy consumption. At the same time, optimize the control system of the equipment to achieve precise control and reasonable distribution of energy to avoid energy waste.
- Optimize production process: Reduce energy consumption by optimizing extrusion blow molding process parameters such as temperature, pressure, speed, etc. On the premise of ensuring product quality, appropriately reducing heating temperature, reducing blowing pressure and shortening production cycle can effectively reduce energy costs. In addition, reasonably arranging the production sequence to avoid frequent start and stop of equipment can also reduce energy loss.
- Energy management: Establish an energy management system and strengthen the monitoring and analysis of energy consumption. Install energy metering devices to monitor the energy consumption of equipment in real time, find out the links and causes of energy waste, and take corresponding measures to improve them. At the same time, provide energy conservation training for employees to improve their energy conservation awareness and create a good atmosphere for all employees to participate in energy conservation.

Human cost control
- Reasonable staffing: According to the production process and work tasks, reasonably allocate production personnel to avoid redundant personnel. Clarify the responsibilities and work content of each position to improve work efficiency. The manual operation links can be reduced and the labor cost can be reduced by optimizing the production organizational structure and adopting automated production equipment.
- Employee training and skill improvement: Strengthen employee training and improve employees' operating skills and business level. Skilled employees can operate bottle blowing machines more efficiently, reduce errors and scrap rates in the production process, and improve production efficiency and product quality. At the same time, the improvement of employee skills will also help enterprises to carry out technological innovation and process improvement, and further reduce costs.
- Performance management: Establish a scientific and reasonable performance appraisal system to link employees' work performance with remuneration. Motivate employees to work actively and improve work efficiency and quality. Through performance appraisal, timely discover employees' problems and deficiencies, and carry out targeted training and guidance to promote the growth and development of employees.

Quality cost control
- Strengthen quality control: Establish a strict quality control system, from raw material procurement, production process to finished product inspection, and strictly control the quality of each link. Strengthen the monitoring of the production process, timely discover and solve quality problems, and avoid the production and flow of unqualified products into the market. Reduce the scrap rate and rework rate by improving product quality, and reduce quality costs.
- Quality improvement: Regularly analyze and evaluate product quality to find out the root causes of quality problems and improvement directions. Continuously improve product quality levels by continuously improving production processes, optimizing equipment performance, and strengthening employee training. At the same time, actively collect customer feedback, and adjust product quality standards and production processes in a timely manner according to customer needs and market changes to improve customer satisfaction.
