Abstract
A method is disclosed for providing dimensional accuracy of a pour opening in or on a plastic container produced by extrusion-blow-molding. The method can include inserting a section of a plastic hose, extruded in one or more layers through an extrusion nozzle, into a mold cavity of a blow mold tool; and inflating the plastic hose by a calibrating blow pin according to a shape of the mold cavity, whereby at least one pour opening of the plastic container is determined with respect to its inside diameter and its inside contour to form a completed inflated plastic container, and wherein the calibrating blow pin is axially inserted into the plastic hose section after a head plate of the blow mold tool has been closed.
