2 – EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND TEST METHODS<br />

2.1 Materials and Setup<br />

2.1.1 Conventional Air Setup<br />

Setup of the conventional blow settings was accomplished with the help of<br />

Bekum America. The settings are set so that the container is formed in the<br />

shortest amount of time possible that would still allow complete formation of the<br />

container. The cycle time of this setup as shown in Table 3 is 9.51 seconds.<br />

The parison program was designed to create approximately equal wall thickness<br />

throughout the wall and heel of the container. These set points are saved in the<br />

machine as “16OZ ROUND THESIS” along with the parison program.<br />
