Provided is a resin container manufacturing method including: an injection molding process of injection molding a plurality of preforms along a predetermined arrangement direction; a temperature adjustment process of adjusting a temperature of the preform; and a blow molding process of molding a resin container from the preform. After the injection molding process, the preform and the container are conveyed along a conveying direction intersecting the arrangement direction over the temperature adjustment process and the blow molding process. The temperature adjustment process includes a first temperature adjustment process of adjusting the temperature of the preform, a second temperature adjustment process of adjusting the temperature of the preform under a condition different from that of the first temperature adjustment process, and a fine adjustment process of finely adjusting the temperature of the preform.

A molding device suitable for performing at least one of injection molding of preforms and blow molding of the preforms includes a pitch changing device including: N holding units capable of holding the preforms and arranged at a predetermined pitch in a predetermined direction, N being inter equal to or larger than 2; a coupling unit coupling the holding units adjacent to each other such that the pitch is changeable; a drive unit configured to generate a predetermined drive force; and a drive force transmission unit configured to transmit the drive force to each of one end-side and the other end-side, in the predetermined direction, of the coupled N holding units. The one end-side and the other end-side are configured to be moved in the predetermined direction by the drive force to change the pitch.

This information management method for a resin molded product in a molding device for intermittently producing resin molded products includes: classifying the resin molded products into molded product groups for each molding cycle; acquiring an information group for each of the molded product groups; and recording the acquired information groups in association with the molded product groups.

A container manufacturing device having a preform manufacturing portion, a conveyor, a blow molding device, where the preform is to the blow molding device while maintain the residual heat from the preform manufacturing portion. The preform manufacturing portion includes a molding die and a feeder for supplying a molten thermoplastic resin to a cavity of the molding die. In the blow molding portion, liquid is used to mold the preform into a container of a predetermined shape.

Disclosed is a dual carriage linear motor equipped with a controller inside a blow-molding device, a first carriage of the motor ensuring the movements of a first mobile support of a stretching rod equipping the blow-molding device along at least one first course, while a second carriage of the motor ensures the movements of a second mobile support of a nozzle equipping the blow-molding device along at least one second course, each of the first and second courses being controlled independently by the controller.
