The invention relates to an extrusion blow molding machine () with at least one extrusion head () and with at least two sheet dies (), arranged next to one another, for the extrusion of sheet-like plastic preforms (), with a multipart molding die () for processing two preforms into an essentially closed hollow body, having a device for handling the preforms (). The device for handling the preforms comprises at least two grippers (), arranged next to one another on a common carrier (), for receiving the preforms (), the distance between the grippers () being variable.

Extrusion blow molding machine and method for the production of a hollow plastic body

A blow molding machine, includes a base frame, a blow mold adapted for receiving a tubular parison and having a first mold support plate for support one mold half and a second mold support plate for support of another mold half. A transport unit is mounted to the base frame for so moving the first and second support plates that the mold halves are free from any direct, form-fitting coupling, with the transport unit including a first drive mechanism operatively connected to the first support plate and a second drive mechanism operatively connected to the second support plate and operating independent of the first drive mechanism. Secured to the support plates is a locking mechanism for pinching off the tubular parison and clamping the mold halves during the blow molding operation.
