Abstract
In an apparatus for manufacturing containers out of glass, a parison is formed from a gob of molten glass and is transferred to a mould having a cavity in the shape of the required container. Instead of the conventional blowing operation, the parison within the mould is heated so that the parison flows to conform to the shape of the cavity. The heating may be by a gas burner and air may be blown on to a neck portion of the parison to cool it during heating of the parison.
