An apparatus for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers, having a transport device which transports the plastic preforms along a predetermined transport path. The transport device has a movable and in particular rotatable transport carrier on which a plurality of forming stations is arranged. The forming stations each having blow molding devices with at least two blow mold side parts and a bottom part which form a hollow space inside which the plastic preforms are formed into the plastic containers by applying a flowable medium. The forming stations each having application devices for applying the flowable medium to the plastic preforms. A diameter of the transport carrier is smaller than 2 m, and 4-16 forming stations are arranged on the transport carrier or a diameter of the transport carrier is smaller than 3 m, and 17 to 35 forming stations are arranged on the transport carrier.

Apparatus and method for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers

Apparatus for heating plastic preforms with a transport device which transports the plastic preforms during their heating along a predetermined transport path, with a first feed transport device which directly transfers the plastic preforms to the transport device in a transfer region, wherein this first feed transport device having a carrier which can be rotated with respect to an axis of rotation and has a plurality of holding devices which hold the plastic preforms, wherein each of these holding devices is in each case assigned an application device, wherein these application devices being arranged on a carrier which can be rotated about an axis of rotation.

Apparatus and method for heating plastic preforms with blow-out device

A reshaping station for reshaping plastic preforms into plastic containers, wherein the reshaping station includes a blow mold for reshaping plastic preforms into plastic containers, the blow mold having a base part, a first lateral part, and a second lateral part is provided. In the assembled state of the blow mold, the base part together with the lateral parts forms a cavity within which the plastic preforms can be expanded in order to form the plastic containers. The reshaping station also includes a support device for supporting the blow mold, and the support device has a first lateral part support and a second lateral part support, the first lateral part being arranged on the first lateral part support and the second lateral part being arranged on the second lateral part support. Also disclosed is a transforming station for transforming plastic parsons into plastic containers.

Transforming station for transforming plastic parisons with shell-free mounting of the blow mould

An apparatus for producing plastic containers is provided, comprising a heating device that heats plastic preforms, and including a shaping device provided downstream of this heating device in the transport direction of the plastic preforms, which shaping device shapes the plastic preforms into the plastic containers, wherein a tempering device for tempering the plastic preforms heated by the heating device is provided in the transport direction of the plastic preforms between the heating device and the shaping device, which tempering device has at least one tempering unit provided on a carrier rotatable about a predetermined rotary axis, and which tempering unit has at least two contacting devices, between which at least one section of the plastic preform can be received, which contacting devices can be moved in relation to one another along a predetermined direction.

Apparatus and a method for producing oval plastic containers

Provided is an apparatus that conveys container pre-forms comprising a first circulating carrier and a plurality of engagement devices constructed and arranged on the first circulating carrier. The engagement devices circulate along a pre-set circulation path during a movement of the first circulating carrier. The circulation path has at least one portion at which the engagement devices are fed during the movement along the circulation path onto a flow of the containers. The engagement devices are shaped such that during the feed onto the flow of the containers each engagement device applies a force between two adjacent containers and forces the two containers apart from each other.
