To prevent core misalignment when performs are stretched during blow molding, provided is a blow molding device that blow molds a preform into a container in a forming mold. The blow molding device includes a support pin that is disposed in the forming mold. The support pin includes a head that supports a bottom portion of the preform, and a shaft that is connected to the head and that is displaceable upward and downward in a direction of an axis of the preform. The head is provided, at one end thereof supporting the bottom portion of the preform, with a concave portion for receiving at least a part of the bottom portion.

A mold includes a first mold for receiving a neck mold that holds a neck part of a resin preform having a bottom, and for enclosing the preform inside, and a second mold inserted into the neck mold. At least one of a first sliding surface between the neck mold and the first mold and a second sliding surface between the neck mold and the second mold includes a solid lubricant embedded therein.

Method for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers, wherein a plastic preform is introduced into a blow mould and is expanded into a plastic container by being applied by a flowable medium, wherein the plastic preform is applied by at least two different pressure levels and wherein furthermore preferably a rod-like body is introduced into the plastic preform, in order to expand the plastic preform in its longitudinal direction, wherein a pressure curve and/or a movement curve of the rod-like body being determined by a measuring device during the expansion process, wherein least one of the curves is evaluated by means of a processor device and at least one point or region of this curve which is characteristic of the course is determined.

A plant produces plastic films subjected to stretching. The plant includes a flat extrusion head made of polyethylene-based plastic material, first and second rollers forming a rolling press, and a third cooling/stabilizing roller. Molten plastic material/melt exiting the flat head passes through the first and second rollers before being directed onto the third cooling/stabilizing roller. The extrusion head has a width of 1,000-5,000 mm, the first and second rollers each have a diameter of 200-800 mm. The third roller has a diameter of 400-1,000 mm. The first and second rollers are made of ferrous material, with a conductive heat transfer coefficient of at least 15 W/(mK). The ferrous material is a construction steel with a chrome-plated and mirror-polished surface, having a roughness (Ra)<1 m, copper coatings, or coatings having thermal-conductivity and surface-roughness values corresponding to the rollers. The first and/or second roller has a deformable and non-stick coating.
