Case Study: Custom 700ml Glass Liquor Bottle for a Mexican Distillery

1. Mold Redesign & Adjustments

• Improved Venting: Added micro-venting channels along the mold seams to equalize pressure during cooling.

• Optimized Cooling System: Adjusted cooling airflow to ensure uniform temperature distribution.

• Reinforced Wall Thickness: Slightly increased sidewall thickness in critical areas while maintaining the bottle’s sleek profile.

2. Process Optimization

• Stable Gob Weight Control: Ensured consistent glass distribution by fine-tuning the feeder system.

• Modified Annealing Cycle: Slowed down the cooling rate in the annealing oven to minimize residual stress.

3. Rigorous Quality Control

• Implemented automated optical inspection (AOI) to detect early signs of deformation.

• Conducted pressure resistance tests to validate structural integrity before mass production.
