A vertical additive processing system for use with a blow molding machine having a flow head from which a plastic parison is delivered to a mold and producing an article. The system has a servo-controlled accumulation technology (SCAT) unit including (a) an accumulator collecting plastic material when retracted and delivering plastic material when extended, and (b) an actuator directing the accumulator to retract and extend. The system further has a tooling unit including a bushing body adapted to engage the flow head, a distribution ring, a bushing cap, a central aperture defining a main parison flow path, and a distribution channel delivering plastic material received from the accumulator to the main parison flow path. The system still further has a material duct connecting the two units through which plastic material delivered by the SCAT unit is transported to and received by the tooling unit. Also disclosed is a related method.

A device for producing and filling containers, in which at least one hose of plasticized plastic material emerging from an extrusion head (2), can be extruded into an opened mold, wherein a filling device (14) can be used to at least introduce the filling material into the relevant container by means of filling mandrels (12), which, at least during operation, extend through the extrusion head (2) along at least one row of passages (40), is characterized in that the extrusion head (2) has a cuboid shell (20, 22) and in that the overall height (H) of the extrusion head (2), viewed in parallel to the orientation of the relevant filling mandrel (12), is smaller than the length (L) of the extrusion head (2), viewed along the pertinent row of passages (40).

A method for producing hollow bodies made of plastics by blow molding or deep drawing using a deep-drawing tool or a blow-molding tool, comprising the extrusion of preforms from thermoplastics, the method comprising a wall thickness control of the preforms, wherein a measurement of the wall thickness of the preforms takes place within the tool on the mold cavity side on at least one reference point of a preform, the measured value obtained is compared as an actual value with a predetermined target value and the wall thickness control is triggered to change the wall thickness of the preform during extrusion or between extrusion cycles depending on the deviation between the actual value and the target value.

1. Device for producing and filling container products 2. A device for producing and filling container products, in which at least one hose (19) of plasticized plastic material can be extruded into an opened mold (7) starting from an extrusion head (13) along a hose guide, wherein by means of at least one filling mandrel (1), which at least in one functional position extends through the extrusion head (13), a filling material can be introduced into the relevant container and wherein at least one process gas feeder device (21, 23) can be used to bring a process gas into the interior of the hose (19), wherein the process gas feeder device (21, 23) has a guide duct (21) extending inside the extrusion head (13) along the outside of the filling mandrel (1), is characterized in that at least part of the process gas introduced is discharged through the extrusion head (13) along at least one predeterminable exhaust gas duct (35), which is separated from the relevant guide duct (21).

A molding apparatus includes: a die provided with a die recessed portion; a core being relatively movable toward a first side and a second side in an axial direction of the die, and forming a flow passage for molten resin between the core and the die; a slider housed in the die recessed portion, having a gap in the die radial direction between the slider and the die recessed portion, the slider being slidable in the die axial direction; and a wall portion forming part of an inner wall in the die radial direction of the die recessed portion, positioned to oppose the core, and extending in such a way that a thickness of the wall portion gradually decreases heading from the first side toward the second side; wherein the wall portion is elastically flexible outward in the die radial direction in a case in which the wall portion is pushed by the molten resin.

A method to produce a container made of a plastic composition having an inner coating with a higher mechanical stability and/or a better adhesion to the container, includes preparing a plastic composition with at least one base polymer material and at least a first additive comprising globe-like particles having a hardness on the Mohs scale of at least 4, and extrusion blow molding of a container. The globe-like particles, which located on the inner surface of the container, increase the surface area and the hardness of the inner surface of the container. The method also includes applying the at least one metal layer of the inner coating onto the inner surface of the container, wherein the applied metal layer bonds to the globe-like particles of the first additive located on the inner surface of the container.

A method for forming an object made of a polymeric material, wherein the polymeric material has a melting temperature (Tf), comprising the following steps: melting the polymeric material; cooling the polymeric material below the melting temperature (Tf); extruding the polymeric material into a tubular shaped body (H); inserting the tubular body (H) into a mould (60) having an internal cavity; closing off the tubular body (H) at a first end thereof; blowing air into the tubular body (H) through a second end, in order that the tubular body (H) adheres to the internal cavity of the mould (60).

The method for manufacturing a container having a substantially stiff outer container and a readily deformable inner bag of thermoplastic plastic materials which do not form a weld connection with one another, with a container opening and holes in the outer container, wherein the method includes forming holes in the wall of the outer container at diametrically opposed positions, which lie on the intersection line of a plane defined by the base seam and the longitudinal axis of the container with the container wall and that a pin-shaped tool forces the inner bag through the holes by a predetermined distance from the wall of the outer container and thereby detaches it from the wall, whereafter a pressure medium is introduced through the holes into the gap between the inner bag and the outer container, which detaches the inner bag from the wall of the outer container.
