Abstract
An apparatus for shaping plastics material pre-forms into plastics material containers has a movable carrier on which are arranged a plurality of shaping stations for shaping the plastics material pre-forms into the plastics material containers. Each shaping station has a stressing device which acts upon the plastics material pre-forms for the expansion thereof with a gaseous medium, and a pressure preparation device which prepares the gaseous medium. The pressure preparation device is arranged in a stationary manner and supplies the shaping stations with the gaseous medium for the expansion of the plastics material pre-forms by way of at least one connection line. A distribution device is provided which distributes the gaseous medium from the pressure preparation device shaping stations. A control air line supplies the valve device with a control gas, and a blowing air line supplies the shaping stations with the gaseous medium, are separate from each other at least downstream of the distribution device in a flow direction of the gaseous medium.
