Model and application
The TDBX-1500A is a large-panel accumulator-head blow molding machine, previously listed as HT-1500L. Tongda has confirmed that TDBX is the large-panel family, while TDBS is the large-storage-tank family. Its selection should therefore be based on panel and mold requirements, rather than a water-tank capacity label.
Product and mold selection
For a pallet, panel or other large hollow structural part, begin with the overall footprint, projected area, part depth, target weight and load requirements. The standard machine has a 1200 × 1850 mm mold envelope, a 600–2000 mm platen distance and 1200 kN clamping force. Reinforcing features, pinch-off areas and cooling must be reviewed against the actual drawing.
Configuration comparison
The brochure lists 1500 L under maximum product volume, but this rating does not make the TDBX-1500A a general-purpose 1500 L water-tank recommendation. Its 135 mm screw and 35 L accumulator serve the specified panel process. For storage tanks, ask about the TDBS family; for multilayer IBC inner bottles, compare the TDB-1200A configurations.
Compare IBC inner-bottle machines or discuss a storage-tank project. These product families have different selection requirements.
How to read the specifications
Specifications are the standard configuration in Tongda’s latest brochure (printed pages 41–42), confirmed by Tongda’s marketing department. Custom configurations require a separate specification.
- HDPE extrusion output is a mass-flow specification, not finished products per hour.
- Dry cycles describe machine cycles, not the production rate of an accepted container or panel.
- Installed power is the machine rating, not measured electricity consumption. Auxiliary equipment needs a separate utilities review.
For a production estimate, send your drawing and requirements, including resin, target part weight, dimensions and required accepted output.
FAQ
Is TDBX-1500A a water-tank machine?
Tongda positions TDBX as the large-panel series and TDBS as the large-storage-tank series. Choose this machine for a reviewed panel or large hollow-part project, not solely from the 1500 L brochure volume rating.
What is the confirmed HDPE extrusion output?
The latest brochure lists 450 kg/h for TDBX-1500A. The 420 kg/h value belongs to TDBX-1000A and must not be transferred to this model.
Is 100 dry cycles/h a guaranteed panel production rate?
No. It is the brochure dry-cycle specification. Finished panel output depends on the part, mold cooling, resin, handling and acceptance criteria.
