PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for producing a wide mouth hollow glass article wherein the productivity and process stability are increased. SOLUTION: The method and apparatus for producing a wide mouth hollow glass article comprises delivering a gob of glass to a blank mold, providing a first neck ring to a position adjacent to the blank mold, forming the gob in the blank mold into a parison, blowing the parison in the blow mold to a hollow article, removing the hollow article from the blow mold, returning first neck ring to a position adjacent to the blank mold to repeat the cycle, delivering a second gob of glass to the blank mold to form a second parison and controlling the positioning and movement of the first neck ring and second ring independently of one another such that the velocity and movement of each neck ring are varied without affecting the overall forming cycle. |
