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 improving the impact resistance of an extrusion blow molded article by extrusion blow molding an ultra-high IV polymer resin having an IV of at least 0.9 dL/g, wherein the extrusion blow molding is carried out in a mold with a texturized base surface such that a base surface of the extrusion blow molded article is textured.

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 head is disclosed for use with a manufacturing system. The head may have a housing configured to discharge a tubular structure reinforced with at least one continuous fiber and having a three-dimensional trajectory, and a cure enhancer operatively connected to the housing and configured to cure a liquid matrix in the tubular structure during discharge. The head may also have a nozzle configured to discharge a fill material into the tubular structure, and a wand extending from the housing to the nozzle.

Provided is a blow-molding method capable of suppressing generation of blister-like bubbles and producing a high quality hollow molded article when forming a thick hollow molded article by blow-molding. A blow-molding method includes setting a die-slit interval in a die head according to a target wall thickness of a hollow molded article to be molded, extruding a molten resin in an accumulator into a cylindrical shape from the die slit to form a parison, and molding the parison in a mold. The die-slit interval is made smaller than a value set according to the target wall thickness at start of extrusion, and then is increased to match the value set according to the target wall thickness. The value set according to the target wall thickness is preferably corrected considering wall thickness reduction due to drawdown. The wall thickness of the hollow molded article is preferably 3.5 mm or more.

The invention relates to a hose extrusion head for producing a hose (50), said head comprising a head housing, a duct (14) formed in the head housing (12) for supplying a hose material (22), a pin (16) which is arranged in the duct (14), a die (18) and at least one securing element (20). According to the invention, the securing element (20) is attached by one end (39) to the die (18) such that said end (39) follows the movement of the die (18).
