Mold filling machine for molding a plastic container from a preform in a hollow mold and for filling the plastic container with product in the hollow mold, and with a valve head comprising a filling member for filling a product into the plastic container in the hollow mold, characterized in that a reaction chamber is provided for an ignitable gas mixture in order to inject a molding fluid, in particular the product, via the valve head into the plastic container by igniting the gas mixture.

Process for aseptically forming containers (100) starting from parisons made of thermoplastic material, comprising the steps of: injecting sterile compressed air inside a parison arranged in a stretch-blowing forming mould (2) so as to obtain a container (100); evacuating the exhaust compressed air from the formed container (100); making at least a part of the exhaust compressed air evacuated from the formed container (100) passing through a sterile filter (SF) so as to obtain recovery sterile air; injecting the recovery sterile air in another parison arranged in another forming mould (2).

A tubular molded body that can reduce restrictions on attachment to another member to be easily attached to another member. The tubular molded body 10 includes a tube main body 11 formed in a tubular shape and an attachment flange 100 formed in a flange shape to project from the tube main body 11. The attachment flange 100 includes a thin-walled hinge 130 and is rotatable by the hinge.

Provided is an apparatus for transforming plastic preforms into plastic containers having at least one transforming station which has a blow molding device, within which the plastic preforms are able to be transformed into the plastic containers by application with a flowable medium, having an application device which applies the flowable medium to the plastic preforms and having a stretching device which has a rod-like body which is able to be introduced into the plastic preforms, in order to stretch the plastic preforms at least temporarily during their transforming process in the longitudinal direction thereof, wherein the stretching device has a drive device for moving the rod-like body as well as a control device for controlling the drive device and wherein the apparatus has a valve arrangement which controls the application of the plastic preforms with the flowable medium with at least two different pressure levels.

Disclosed is a processing unit for an electromagnetic processing of plastic parisons and including a series of processing modules, each including a hollow housing, a light emitting assembly and a dehydration circuit for preventing each hollow housing from moisture via a dehydrated fluid. The dehydration circuit extends outside the main body, where the circuit can be in fluid communication with a source of pressurized fluid, on which are disposed a fluid dehydration unit and fluid circulation unit for forcing the dehydrated fluid to feed the respective hollow housings.

In a method for operating an apparatus for transforming plastic preforms into plastic containers, the apparatus acts upon a flowable medium to plastic preforms in order to expand these plastic preforms to form the plastic containers, and the apparatus carries out this transforming operation while taking account of a plurality of process parameters. The plurality of process parameters is determined on the basis of a machine model, wherein a predefined number of input parameters are transferred to this machine model and at least one processor unit determines the process parameters and/or values characteristic of these process parameters on the basis of these input parameters.

Process to produce containers out of preforms, in which the preform is inserted in a form-filling station, molded and filled in this station. Gas, which remains in the head space after the end of the filling process, is replaced by a purge gas, and a form-filling machine is provided to produce and to fill containers made of preforms.
