The invention relates to a method and guide system for the transport of containers or container components, in particular, preforms and/or closure caps, in industrial systems for container production and/or product filling, wherein the containers/container components are transported along at least one guide element. By generating an air cushion between the guide element and the containers/container components by flowing through a microporous layer formed on the guide element, even container components which are lightweight and/or do not slide well can be reliably slidingly transported along the guide elements, and containers can be reliably supplied to dividing worms or similar using dynamic pressure.

Method and guide system for the transport of containers or container components in industrial systems for container production and/or product filling

Hollow part manufacturing machine includes at least one mold in which hollow parts can be manufactured by application of a pressurized medium, a valve unit, having at least two valves, wherein an inlet of a second valve is connected to a second pressure accumulator, which is pressurized under a second pressure, and an outlet of the second valve is connected to a blow nozzle via a channel. The inlet of a first valve is connected to a first pressure accumulator that is under a first pressure and the outlet of the first valve is also connected to the blow nozzle via a channel. During at least a part of the molding process, the blow nozzle seals the material to be molded, and/or the mold, relative to the environment.

A transforming device for transforming plastic preforms into plastic containers, comprising a blow-molding device which forms a cavity inside which the plastic preforms can be transformed into the plastic containers through the application of a flowable medium, wherein the blow-molding device has at least two side parts which are arranged at least indirectly on blow-mold carriers, wherein the side parts are arranged on the blow-mold carriers by an attachment device is provided. The attachment device also has a return which, at least temporarily during a working mode, pushes at least one side part towards the blow-mold carrier on which the side part is arranged.

An apparatus for shaping plastics material preforms into plastics material containers includes a plurality of shaping stations each having two blow mould parts which are movable with respect to each other and which can be moved between a closed and an opened state. In the closed state the shaping station form a cavity, inside which the plastics material pre-forms are shaped. The shaping stations have a stressing device which acts upon the preforms with a gaseous medium to expand them, and stretch bars which are capable of being inserted into the preforms to stretch them in the longitudinal direction. The shaping stations each have at least one drive device which drives a movement necessary for the shaping procedure, as well as a control device for controlling this drive device. The control device is arranged on the apparatus through a damping device.
