Launching the BMT Inline Temperature Measurement Device
Temperature of the heated preforms is one of the most important process parameters, determined by a large number of external variables, such as operator subjectivity, environmental changes, product line changeovers and unplanned stop/starts. Temperature variations can be a major cause of process faults and product abnormalities, leading to wastage, product deformation and decreased productivity.
The device will be available to view at our stand for the duration of the K-Show.
BMT will reveal our ground-breaking new temperature measurement device for the stretch blow moulding industry, which advances beyond our current stand-alone THERMOscan3D and proposes multiple innovations in both its technology, application and user scenarios.

Product category: Measuring and test equipment for rheological properties
THERMOscan3D
THERMOscan is a practical, standalone portable device that can be placed virtually next to any SBM machines capable of ejecting a preform. THERMOscan appeals across the entire supply chain from raw material producers to brand owners, and for challenges from the initial set-ups, through production troubleshooting to production scale-ups. Better understanding of such a key process characteristic is fundamental to solving existing problems and establishing the basis for future innovation and growth.

Instrumented Data Rod
BMT has created an intelligent rod that contains a pressure sensor – for measuring the air pressure development right in the expanding preform, and a load cell – located at the tip of the stretch-rod to accurately measure the stretching force.
The intelligent data-rod allows the mapping of a ‘process fingerprint’ that, along with the rod displacement, offers an unmatched record of the in mould preform development into the fully formed bottle.

SBM Simulation Software
Our simulation software provides a unique way to breakdown this highly complex process and make it simple, accessible, more cost effective and functionally superior.
Using tailor-made algorithms, our cloud-based simulation allows the user to input their parameters through a 5-step easy process, which includes bottle geometry, preform geometry, machine parameters, process parameters and simulation parameters.

About us
Company details
Our vision is to provide a scientific approach to stretch blow-moulding and help remove the trial and error black art approach that currently exists within the industry. We develop high technology software and hardware products that reduce energy consumption, optimise setup and increase productivity.
Our company was founded in September 2011 with our first product - the THERMOscan, a device for preform temperature measurement. In addition, we offer high-value add-on products which include T-Solver Software, a Remote Trigger, an Instrumented Data-Rod.
We also provide our expert services in Material Characterisation, Preform Characterisation, Material Modelling, Virtual Preform Design and Preview Simulation. We are continuously expanding our portfolio of products, service and software for the ISBM plastic bottle industry.
Our mission is to ‘provide the latest technological innovations to industry to allow the production of lower cost quality products with minimum wastage while increasing the value of the services they provide to their customers.’
Our products and services appeal across the entire ISBM supply chain - including material producers, converters and brand owners. The customer base for BMT includes major multinational clients within the Injection Stretch Blow Moulding Industry.
