PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To highly accurately predict the limitation of interfering displacements or sequences between glass and mechanisms and between the mechanisms. SOLUTION: A glass forming machine includes a number of devices that are operated at defined event times within a 360°machine cycle. An unwrapped glass forming process takes more than the time of one machine cycle to complete. A control system is provided with: a computerized model of mathematical representation of a network constraint diagram of an unwrapped bottle forming process, wherein the displacement of a displaceable mechanism occurs between a start node and an end node; and a computer analysis means for analyzing the computerized model as a constrained optimization problem. The network constraint diagram includes at least one user collision branch connected between either the start or end nodes of displacement of two potentially interfering mechanisms.
