Abstract: An apparatus for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers having a transport device which transports the preforms to be formed along a predetermined transport path, wherein the transport device has a rotatable transport carrier on which a plurality of forming stations are arranged which each have a blow-molding device within which the preforms can be formed into the containers. The forming stations each have a pressurizing device which pressurizes the preforms with a flowable medium, i.e., compressed air, wherein the pressurizing device subjects the preforms to a preblowing pressure, at least one and preferably two intermediate blowing pressures, and a final blowing pressure. The apparatus has a detection device which is configured for detecting at least one value characteristic of the plastic container, wherein depending on this value characteristic of the container, the duration of the pressure rise time of at least one intermediate blowing pressure can be regulated.

Abstract: A method for minimizing a deviation of a physical parameter of a blow-molded container from a target value comprises determining a physical parameter of a container assigned to a machine parameter value of a blow molding machine and an environmental condition, based on the physical parameter and the target value, determining a change in the machine parameter, based on an iteration process, determining an optimal machine parameter value for achieving a minimum deviation from the target value of the physical parameter of a blow-molded container, the iteration process comprising a first iteration step for determining a deviation from the target value of the physical parameter of a blow-molded container based on a change in the machine parameter value, and a second iteration step for determining an adjusted change in the machine parameter value based on the deviation of the physical parameter of a blow-molded container from the target value.

Abstract: The invention relates, inter alia, to a device for transporting objects. The device has a guide track and at least one movement device having a main body and a bracket for holding an object. The bracket is connected to the main body pivotably about a pivot axis, and the pivot axis is oriented at an angle to a vertical axis of the at least one movement device. A pivoting device is arranged separately from the at least one movement device and is designed to cause the bracket to pivot about the pivot axis. The device makes it possible for different handling devices with differing requirements on an orientation of the object to be able to be run with just one movement device without it being necessary, in the meantime, to hand the object over from the movement device.

Abstract: A machine block and a method for filling bottles with liquid products, in particular beverages, are described. Accordingly, at least a first and second filler of circulating design with infeed starwheels and outfeed starwheels are provided. Filling can take place with a small amount of required space and comparatively low machine output in that the empty bottles are alternatingly removed from a transport path which runs linearly at least in some portions and supplied by means of the infeed starwheels to the first and second fillers interlocking with said transport path, and the bottles thus filled are transferred again to the transport path into transport gaps produced between the bottles during removal.
