The 3Bloc for PET comprises three concatenated machines: blow molder, filler, and labeler. The particular version of the Flexa labeler can vary, either featuring pressure-sensitive labeling with a Flexa Sensicol station or wraparound labelling with a roll-feed capability. This version is suitable both for cylindrical and square PET bottles and also for containers with special shapes. The maximum speed is 16,000 bottles/hr. per hour. In the case of HDPE containers, the blow molder is replaced by an unscrambler for erecting them as they are fed. This 3Bloc variant is able to handle up to 25,000 bottles/hr.
