A machine for blowing or stretch-blowing bottles or containers made of a polymer material includes molds movable on a transport system. Each mold includes a front, back, and bottom with a first and second half-molds hinged about a hinge axis and a base. Each of the molds includes a mechanism for synchronized actuation of the half-molds and the base independently from the machine's motor, to cyclically form with shaped portions, a closed cavity for receiving a preheated preform and to allow expansion by blowing or stretch-blowing the preform inside the cavity to obtain a bottle or container. The base is wedge-shaped with a horizontal closing surface facing the bottom of the mold, and an inclined surface. The actuation mechanism includes a wedge-shaped element having a surface inclining towards the front of the mold. The inclined surfaces of the base and of the wedge-shaped element are) being slidingly coupled.

A blowing or stretch-blowing machine for preforms made of polymer material. The blowing or stretch-blowing machine (1) has a plurality of molds (1) movable on a transport system, in which each of the molds (1) comprises a first half-mold (2a) and a second half-mold (2b) hinged around a hinge axis (3) and a bottom plate (4) adapted to cooperate with the half-molds (2a, 2b) for closing the bottom of the mold (1), and a mechanism for vertical/translational movement of the bottom plate, to cyclically form a closed cavity adapted to receive a preheated preform and allow expansion, by blowing or stretch-blowing of the preform inside the cavity, to obtain a bottle or container. Each of the molds (1) comprises a system for synchronized opening/closing of the half-molds (2a, 2b) and of the bottom plate (4) actuated by an actuator thereof (30) independent from motorization of the machine.
