Disclosed is an apparatus for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers, having a blow molding device with at least two blow mold side parts and a base part movable in a longitudinal direction of the plastic container, wherein the blow mold side parts and the base part form a cavity, within which the plastic preforms can be formed into the plastic containers through exposure to a flowable medium. The apparatus has a movable carrier on which a plurality of blow molding devices are arranged, and the blow mold side parts are arranged respectively on a first mold carrier and a second mold carrier, which are movable with respect to a main shaft that is stationary relative to the carrier for opening and/or closing. An opening and/or closing movement of the first mold carrier takes place by a first angle, and an opening and/or closing movement of the second mold carrier takes place by a second angle, wherein the first angle and the second angle are substantially identical.
