1-2. INTRODUCTION
1-2-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The J141-214A DigiPackⅡis a user friendly, high performance 100 Point Digital Blow Molding Parison Wall
Thickness controller producing lighter, stronger containers at increased production rates.
A properly installed and intelligently used system will deliver higher operating efficiency from your blow
molding machine as a result of faster molding cycles, shorter change over times and reduced scrap.
The DigiPackⅡsystem consists of three main components, the DigiPackⅡcontrol panel, a die gap tooling
actuator, feedback transducers to measure tooling die gap opening and in the case of accumulator based
blow molding machines, accumulator position. Together, they operate as follows:
The DigiPackⅡcontrol panel is used by the operator to control the tooling die gap opening required to
obtain a container with the desired, normally constant, wall thickness required.
The die gap tooling actuator controls the thickness of the parison at the tooling die gap in response to the
DigiPackⅡcontrol panel signals.
The DigiPackⅡcontrol panel provides an digital interface with the blow molding machine’s PLC controller,
providing information such as program end, sequential program points status etc.

When used with continuous blow molding machines, the DigiPackⅡcontrols the parison wall thickness
relative to the machine cycle time. The machine cycle starts when the parison cutoff knife cuts the parison
off. Cycle time may be determined by:
a) a fixed, operator set cycle time or,
b) an automatic cycle time, set by repeated measurement of the time between parison knife cuts or
c) using a fixed DigiPackⅡtime cycle and having the DigiPackⅡinitiate a machine function such as
closing or moving the mold.
The shape of the parison wall profile is set digitally by the operator. The size of the die gap, measured by a
die gap position transducer, is compared with the operators commanded position as set on the DigiPackⅡ
display.
The error between the operators set position and the actual position causes the servovalve to flow oil to
the actuator to reduce the position error to a very small value. This feedback process ensures that the
actual die gap follows the commanded die gap very accurately.
When used with accumulator machines, the DigiPackⅡcontrols the parison wall thickness relative to the
accumulator position as the plastic is being extruded.
As the total quantity or volume of plastic extruded is proportional to the accumulator position, then it
follows that the resulting parison wall thickness at any given point on the length of the container must be
related to the accumulator position. Given that the physical properties of the plastic and its temperature
are constant from container to container, then each container’s weight and strength will be consistent.
