A method for forming a shaped container includes introducing a preform (10) to a necking station (S1-S4) of a necking assembly (20) and compressively necking an open end (12) of a preform (10) at one or more stations (S1-S4) of the necking station (20). The method also includes introducing the preform to a dual process station (S4) of the necking assembly (20). At the dual process station (S4), the open end (12) of the preform (10) is compressively necked and the preform (10) is also blow formed. Blow forming the preform (10) includes pressurizing an interior of the preform (10) to expand the preform into a mold (52) of the shaped container. A necking assembly (10) and a dual process station (S4) suitable to carry out the method are also disclosed. |
