Abstract
An apparatus for coating a PET container in a coating chamber includes a lance that introduces material and energy into the container while it is in the coating chamber. This results in a reaction that coats the bottle's interior with a silicon oxide. Before reaching the coating chamber, the bottle will have passed through a cooling system connected to coating chamber. The cooling system passes cooled gas through a feed, thereby cooling said bottle before it reaches the coating chamber.
