Process and apparatus for the thermal treatment of a preform's body or of an intermediate container, made of thermoplastic material.

摘要

The invention relates to the heat treatment of the body (2) of a preform (1) or of an intermediate container made of thermoplastic material during a process for manufacturing a container, such as a flask or a bottle, especially by blowing or drawing-blowing; the entire body (2) of the preform is heated to a temperature above the softening temperature of the material and at least one longitudinal portion (13) of the body (2) of the preform, rotating about itself, is at an even higher temperature than that of the rest (14) of the body, this enabling a final container with a body of complex shape to be obtained.
