Workpieces of a synthetic plastics material are heated to enable further lding thereof to be effected. Heating is effected by infra-red radiators and, in order to ensure that localized overheating is avoided, the surface of the workpiece which is exposed to radiation is cooled during the heating process.

Method for heating plastics materials

In a blow-moulding process, the base of a hollow plastics body is formed initially of convex configuration and then a portion of the base is deformed inwardly to provide a concave area surrounded by an annular support surface. Deformation of the base is controlled in response to an increase of pressure in the mold cavity after termination of venting thereof.

Method for blow molding a hollow plastic article having a concave base

Hollow articles of thermoplastics, especially bottles, are made from tubular blanks by heating the ends thereof and press molding first their bottom and neck portion. Then the preformed blanks are heated around their center portion and are transferred into blow molds for inflating them to the final shape. The machine consists of a first rotary table with preheating and press molding means, a second rotary table with final heating means and a third rotary table with blow molds. The rotary tables are connected by transfer stations so that the blanks can be automatically transmitted and conveyed around all tables. The high throughput allows installation before racking plants.

Method of making hollow articles, especially bottles, of thermoplastics

A tubular slug of thermoplastic material is preheated and is then gripped a position spaced from an open end of the slug, the gripping means being such as to effect a reduction in cross-section of the gripped portion of the slug. Such reduction in cross-section provides a shoulder which abuts the gripping means during application of pressure to the end face of the slug to deform the end portion thereof to provide a thread, groove or other profiled formation.
