Opfindelsen angår en fremgangsmåde til fremstilling af et beskyttende overtræk på en glasbeholder, som har en helt eller hovedsagelig cylindrisk kropdel og en bund med en understøtningsflade, ved 5 anbringelse af et i begge ender åbent hylster af var-mekrympeligt plastmateriale omkring beholderens kropdel, inklusive det område heraf, hvor beholderen har sin største diameter, efterfulgt af en opvarmning af hylsteret.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of producing a protective coating on a glass container having a wholly or substantially cylindrical body portion and a bottom with a support surface by applying a heat shrinkable plastic material open to both ends about the body portion of the container, including the area of which the container has its largest diameter, followed by a heating of the casing.

10 Fra USA-patentskrift nr. 3 235 112 kendes on fremgangsmåde af den art, hvor et hylster af en tynd varmekrympelig plastfolie anbringes således omkring kropdelen af en glasbeholder, at hylsteret rager op over et påsat skruelåg og ved den følgende krympning 15 trækkes ind i tæt anlæg mod kropdelen og i det mindste den nederste del af beholderhalsen og låget. Formålet hermed er dels at beskytte beholdervæggen, dels at sikre hermetisk lukning af beholderen.US Patent No. 3,235,112 discloses a method in which a sheath of a thin heat-shrinkable plastic film is placed around the body portion of a glass container so that the sheath protrudes over an attached screw lid and is retracted into the following shrinkage 15 close abutment to the body portion and at least the lower portion of the container neck and lid. The purpose of this is partly to protect the container wall and partly to ensure hermetic closure of the container.

Fra USA-patentskrift nr. 3 480 168 kendes en 20 lignende fremgangsmåde, hvor beholderen dog har halv-kugleformet bund og dermed ingen egen understøtningsflade, og hvor hylsteret anbringes således, at dets underkant flugter med det nederste punkt af beholderbunden. I dette tilfælde tjener hylsteret efter krymp-25 ningen, foruden til beskyttelse og afstivning af beholderens sidevæg, til at danne en cirkulær kant, hvorpå beholderen kan opstilles stabilt.U.S. Patent No. 3,480,168 discloses a similar method in which, however, the container has a hemispherical bottom and thus no own support surface, and the casing is positioned so that its bottom edge aligns with the lower point of the container bottom. In this case, after shrinkage, in addition to protecting and stiffening the side wall of the container, the sheath serves to form a circular edge on which the container can be stably placed.

Fremgangsmåden ifølge nærværende opfindelse er ejendommelig ved, at der anvendes et hylster, som ved 30 påsætningen rager et sådant stykke ned under beholderbunden, at det ved opvarmningen bringes i tæt anlæg mod beholderbundens understøtningsflade, og som er fremstillet af et opskummet og biaksialt orienteret termoplastmateriale, hvis orienteringsgrad er mindst 35 dobbelt så høj i retning af hylsterets omkreds som i retningen vinkelret herpå.The method of the present invention is characterized by the use of a sleeve which, during application, protrudes such a portion below the container bottom that it is brought into close contact with the support surface of the container floor and which is made of foamed and biaxially oriented thermoplastic material. the orientation of which is at least 35 times as high in the direction of the circumference of the sheath as in the direction perpendicular thereto.

Herved opnås, at hylsteret efter sin krympning ligger tæt an mod og dermed beskytter ikke blot beholderens kropdel, men også dens bundflade såvel mod stød og slag, der umiddelbart kunne medføre knusning 5 af det skøre glasmateriale, som mod slid og ridser, der kan fremkomme ved kontakt mellem beholdere indbyrdes eller mellem beholdere og understøtningsflader i et fylde- og lukkemaskineri. For at opnå denne virkning er det nødvendigt, at plasthylsterets varme-10 behandling resulterer i en diameterreduktion af hylsterets oprindeligt nedragende del, som er mange gange større end diameterreduktionen af hylsterets øverste del, der ligger an mod beholderens i det væsentlige cylindriske kropdel. Samtidig er det en 15 betingelse, at der ikke opstår folder eller rynker i hylstermaterialet eller hulrum mellem det færdigkrympe-de hylster og beholderen som følge af de markante forskelle mellem dimensionsændringerne af hylsterets øvre og nedre dele. Det har overraskende vist sig, at 20 de nævnte betingelser opfyldes ved den foreskrevne anvendelse af et biaksialt orienteret, opskummet plastmateriale med det angivne minimumsforhold mellem orienteringsgraderne i hylsterets omkreds- og højderetning. Dette resulterer i en praktisk taget enakset 25 krympning i hylsterets omkredsretning med ingen eller kun uvæsentlig krympning i højderetningen.Hereby, the shroud, after its shrinkage, is closely resembled and thus protects not only the body portion of the container, but also its bottom surface both from bumps and strokes, which could immediately cause crushing 5 of the brittle glass material, as well as from wear and scratches that may result. by contact between containers between themselves or between containers and support surfaces in a filling and closing machine. To achieve this effect, it is necessary that the heat treatment of the plastic casing results in a diameter reduction of the casing's initially projecting portion which is many times greater than the diameter reduction of the casing's upper portion which abuts the substantially cylindrical body portion of the container. At the same time, it is a condition that no folds or wrinkles occur in the casing material or voids between the pre-shrunk casing and the container due to the marked differences between the dimensional changes of the casing upper and lower portions. Surprisingly, it has been found that the aforementioned conditions are met by the prescribed use of a biaxially oriented foamed plastic material having the specified minimum ratio of orientation degrees in the circumferential and vertical directions of the casing. This results in a practically single-axis shrinkage in the circumferential direction of the casing with no or only insignificant shrinkage in the height direction.

Det ifølge opfindelsen anvendte hylstermateriale vil normalt være væsentlig tykkere end de ikke-opskummede foliematerialer, som anvendes ved den oven-30 for omtalte kendte teknik. Ifølge en udførelsesform for opfindelsen kan materialets tykkelse være mindst 0,25 mm.The sheath material used according to the invention will normally be substantially thicker than the non-foamed foil materials used in the above-mentioned prior art. According to one embodiment of the invention, the thickness of the material may be at least 0.25 mm.

Plastmaterialets relativt store tykkelse og lave varmeledningsevne som følge af dets skumstruk-35 tur kan gøre det vanskeligt at opnå den ønskede ens- 3 163642 artede krympning i hele hylsterets tykkelse, navnlig ved overgangen mellem beholderens krop og bund, hvor beholderkonturen opviser bratte ændringer og små krumningsradier. Det har vist sig, at disse vanskelighe-5 der kan overvindes ved, at beholderen ved anbringelsen af hylsteret omkring den holdes på en temperatur, som ligger inden for det temperaturinterval, i hvilket hylstermaterialets krympning foregår. Idet hylsteret herved opvarmes samtidig udefra og indefra, sker 10 krympningen af dets yderste og inderste lag stort set lige hurtigt, hvilket sikrer, at hylsteret efter krympningen overalt slutter tæt til beholderens overflade.The relatively large thickness and low thermal conductivity of the plastic material due to its foam structure can make it difficult to achieve the desired uniform shrinkage throughout the thickness of the casing, especially at the transition between the body of the container and the bottom, where the container contour exhibits steep changes and small radii of curvature. It has been found that these difficulties can be overcome by holding the container around the container at a temperature which is within the temperature range within which the shrinkage material shrinkage takes place. As the casing is thereby simultaneously heated from the outside and from the inside, the shrinkage of its outermost and innermost layers occurs almost equally quickly, ensuring that the shrinkage, after shrinking, all ends close to the surface of the container.

Når hylstermaterialet er opskummet polystyren, vælges beholdertemperaturen fortrinsvis mellem 80° 15 og 150°.When the sheath material is foamed polystyrene, the container temperature is preferably selected between 80 ° 15 and 150 °.

Opfindelsen forklares nærmere i det følgende under henvisning til tegningen, hvorpå fig. 1 viser en beholder med et overtræk fremstillet ved en udførelsesform for fremgangsmåden iføl-20 ge opfindelsen, set i perspektiv, fig. 2 et snit gennem denne beholder efter linien 2-2 i fig. 3, fig. 3 beholderen ifølge fig. 1 liggende på en vandret understøtningsflade, 25 fig. 4 et sidebillede, delvis i snit, af en glaskrukke med et plastovertræk fremstillet ved en fremgangsmåde ifølge opfindelsen, fig. 5 et sidebillede af en flaske med overtræk fremstillet ved en fremgangsmåde ifølge opfin-30 delsen, fig. 6 et perspektivbillede af en anden flaske med overtræk fremstillet ved en fremgangsmåde ifølge opfindelsen, fig. 7 et perspektivbillede af flasken og hyl-35 steret ifølge fig. 1 før disses sammenføjning, 4 143642 fig. 8 et snit efter linien 8-8 i fig. 7, fig. 9 flasken og hylsteret skudt sammen før varmebehandlingen, fig. 10 flasken og hylsteret under transport 5 til varmebehandling, og fig. 11 flasken og hylsteret under varmebehandlingen.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, in which fig. 1 is a perspective view of a container with a coating made by an embodiment of the method according to the invention; FIG. 2 is a section through this container along line 2-2 of FIG. 3, FIG. 3 shows the container of FIG. 1 lying on a horizontal support surface, FIG. 4 is a side view, partly in section, of a glass jar with a plastic coating made by a method according to the invention; FIG. 5 is a side view of a bottle of coating made by a method according to the invention; FIG.

Fig. 1-3 viser en glasflaske 10 med en munding 11, der afgrænses af en kantvulst 12, som gen-10 nem en indsnævret hals 13 og en konveks skulder 14 går over i flaskens cylindriske kropdel 15. Gennem en hjørnerunding 16 går kropdelen 15 over i flaskens bund 17, som er svagt konkav, således at der dannes en ringformet standflade 18 til understøtning 15 af flasken 10 på en vandret flade.FIG. 1-3 show a glass bottle 10 with an orifice 11 bounded by an edge bead 12 which, through a narrowed neck 13 and a convex shoulder 14, passes into the cylindrical body portion 15 of the bottle. the bottom 17 of the bottle, which is slightly concave, so that an annular stand surface 18 is formed to support the bottle 10 on a horizontal surface.

Et hylster 19 af opskummet varmekrympelig plastfolie er krympet uden på flasken 10 på den i det følgende beskrevne måde. Hylsteret 19 kan være fremstillet af et rektangulært arkemne, hvis modståen-20 de kantzoner 20 og 21 er sammenføjet ved varmefor-segling i en overlapningssøm til dannelse af en hul cylinder, hvis højde er lidt større end afstanden fra en linie 15a over kropdelen 15 til en linie 18' ved den indre kant af standfladen 18, se fig. 2.A sheath 19 of foamed heat-shrinkable plastic film is shrunk on the outside of the bottle 10 in the manner described below. The casing 19 may be made of a rectangular sheet blank whose resistive edge zones 20 and 21 are joined by heat sealing in an overlap seam to form a hollow cylinder, the height of which is slightly greater than the distance from a line 15a over the body portion 15 to a line 18 'at the inner edge of the stand surface 18, see FIG. 2nd

25 Den hule cylinder føres op omkring kropdelen 15, indtil cylinderens øvre kant når op til linien 15a.The hollow cylinder is raised around the body portion 15 until the upper edge of the cylinder reaches line 15a.

Herefter indføres flasken 10 og cylinderen i en opvarmet atmosfære ved tilstrækkelig høj temperatur til krympning af plastmaterialet, og de holdes der, ind-30 til cylinderen ved krympningen er bragt til at slutte stramt omkring flasken som et hylster 19, der mellem sin nedre kant 23 og sin øvre kant 22 dækker flaskens kropdel 15 og standflade 18.Thereafter, the bottle 10 and the cylinder are introduced into a heated atmosphere at a sufficiently high temperature to shrink the plastic material, and are held there until the cylinder is shrunk by the shrinkage to close tightly around the bottle as a sleeve 19 which between its lower edge 23 and its upper edge 22 covers the body portion 15 of the bottle and face 18.

På arkemnet kan der i forvejen være trykt et de-35 korativt billede 24 mellem kantzonerne 20 og 21.A decorative image 24 may already be printed on the sheet blank between the edge zones 20 and 21.

143642 5 Når hylsteret 19 strækker sig højere op end kropdelen 15 og ind på skulderdelen 14, vil glasvæggen på intet punkt komme i kontakt med en vandret understøtningsflade 26, hvis flasken vælter som vist 5 i fig. 3. Halsdelen 13 og mundingsvulsten 12 er beskyttet af et lukke 27. Det ses, at plasthylsteret også beskytter hjørnerundingen 16 mellem flaskens kropdel og bund.As the casing 19 extends higher than the body portion 15 and onto the shoulder portion 14, the glass wall will in no point contact a horizontal support surface 26 if the bottle overturns as shown in FIG. 3. The neck portion 13 and the mouth bead 12 are protected by a closure 27. It is seen that the plastic casing also protects the corner round 16 between the body portion and bottom of the bottle.

De af hylsteret beskyttede områder er i fig.The areas protected by the sheath are shown in FIG.

10 4 området ved skulderen 37, hjørnerundingen 43 og standfladen 44. På beholderen 45 i fig. 5 er det de udvidede områder 47 og 48 foroven og forneden på kropdelen, hjørnerundingen 49 og standfladen 53.10 4 the area of the shoulder 37, the corner round 43 and the stand surface 44. On the container 45 in FIG. 5, it is the extended areas 47 and 48 at the top and bottom of the body part, the corner round 49 and the stand surface 53.

Lukket 27 omfatter et ydre metallåg 28 15 af aluminium med en gribering 29, som er forbundet med en rivestrimmel, der fra lågets topfelt fortsætter ned i lågskørtet. Under låget 28 sidder en pakning 30 af elastomert materiale, f.eks. polyethy-len, som slutter tæt til flasken 10's mundingsvulst 20 12.The closure 27 comprises an outer metal cover 28 15 of aluminum with a gripping ring 29 which is connected to a tear strip which continues from the top field of the lid down into the lid skirt. Under the lid 28 is a gasket 30 of elastomeric material, e.g. the polyethylene which terminates close to the mouth bead 20 of the bottle 10 12.

Beholderen 26 ifølge fig. 4 er en glaskrukke, hvis hals 34 har et afbrudt gevind 35. Gennem en cylindrisk indsnævring 36 og en afrundet skulder 37 går halsen 34 over i krukkens cylindriske krop-25 del. Det påkrympede hylster 25, som kan være fremstillet af en sømløst ekstruderet og biaksialt orienteret plastrørfolie har en sådan højde, at dets topkant 25a overlapper skulderen 37, og dets bundkant 25b ligger inde under krukkens standflade 44.The container 26 of FIG. 4 is a glass jar whose throat 34 has a disconnected thread 35. Through a cylindrical constriction 36 and a rounded shoulder 37, the neck 34 enters the cylindrical body portion of the jar. The crimped sleeve 25, which may be made of a seamlessly extruded and biaxially oriented plastic tube film, has such a height that its top edge 25a overlaps shoulder 37 and its bottom edge 25b lies below the stand surface 44 of the jar.

30 I fig. 6 er hele flasken 10's sidevæg og dens ikke viste standflade dækket af et påkrympet plasthylster 19b,som strækker sig op over flaskehalsen 13.In FIG. 6, the entire side wall of the bottle 10 and its not shown surface are covered by a crimped plastic sheath 19b which extends over the bottle neck 13.

I fig. 5 har flasken 45 under sin mundings-35 vulst 46 en temmelig lang hals, der skråner nedad 6 143642 og udad og går over i den cylindriske kropdel gennem en udvidet skulder 47. Kropdelen har forneden et udvidet område 48, som gennem en runding 49 går over i flaskebunden 53. Det påkrympede hylster 25's 5 overkant 25a ligger lige over den øverste kant af skulderen 47, og dets nederste kant 25b ligger inde på den ringformede standflade af bunden 53.In FIG. 5, the bottle 45 under its mouth 35 beads 46 has a rather long neck that slopes downwardly and extends outwardly into the cylindrical body portion through an extended shoulder 47. The body portion below has an expanded region 48 which extends through a rounding 49 into the bottom of the bottle 53. The upper edge 25a of the crimped sleeve 25 is just above the upper edge of the shoulder 47, and its lower edge 25b lies on the annular stand surface of the bottom 53.

Hvadenten hylsteret fremstilles ved sammenføjning af et arkemne eller ved afskæring fra et sømløst 10 rør, udsættes emnet før anbringelsen omkring beholderen for en sådan biaksial strækning, at materialets orienteringsgrad i den retning, som i det færdige hylster er omkredsretningen, bliver mindst dobbelt så stor som i retningen vinkelret herpå. Strækningen udfø-15 res hensigtsmæssigt i forbindelse med udgangsmaterialets ekstrusion til et rør, som opskæres enten direkte til rørformede hylster emner eller i ark eller baner, hvoraf hylsteremner senere skæres ud i de passende mål.Whether the casing is made by joining a sheet blank or by cutting from a seamless tube, the blank is subjected to the biaxial stretch prior to its placement around the container such that the orientation of the material in the direction of the finished casing is perpendicular to at least twice as much as in the direction perpendicular thereto. The stretch is conveniently carried out in connection with extrusion of the starting material into a tube which is cut either directly into tubular casing blanks or in sheets or webs, of which casing blanks are later cut into the appropriate dimensions.

20 Massefylden og vægtykkelsen af det opskummede termoplastmateriale kan fastlægges ved den indledende foliefremstilling, men det er også muligt at anvende hylsteremner med ret høj massefylde, f.eks. af polystyrenfolie med en massefylde på omkring 1040 3 25 kg/m , idet skummaterialet kan ekspandere yderligere ved opvarmningen og krympningen omkring beholderen, hvorved den endelige massefylde bliver lavere.The density and wall thickness of the foamed thermoplastic material can be determined by the initial foil manufacture, but it is also possible to use casing blanks with a fairly high density, e.g. of polystyrene foil having a density of about 1040 3 25 kg / m, the foam material being able to expand further by the heating and shrinkage around the container, thereby reducing the final density.

Som eksempel på anvendelige plastmaterialer til hylsteret kan nævnes copolymerer af carboxylsyre-30 holdige monomerer med ethylen, som forhandles under det registrerede varemærke "SURLYN", polyethylen, polypropylen, polystyren, cellulosepropionat og cellu-losebutyrat af middelhøj eller lav massefylde. Den foretrukne tykkelse af folien ligger i området 0,25 35 til 0,75 mm.Examples of suitable plastic materials for the casing include copolymers of carboxylic acid-containing monomers with ethylene, which are traded under the registered trademark "SURLYN", polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, cellulose propionate and medium or low density cellulose butyrate. The preferred thickness of the film is in the range of 0.25 mm to 0.75 mm.

I praksis har det vist sig, at emner fremstillet 143642 7 ud fra en folie af opskummet polystyren, der er orienteret som beskrevet, og som har en tykkelse på ca. 0,5 3 mm og en massefylde på 240 kg/m , er velegnet til overtrækning af glasflasker til øl og andre drikkevarer 5 med et rumindhold på 30-35 Cl.In practice, it has been found that blanks made from a foam of foamed polystyrene are oriented as described and having a thickness of approx. 0.5 3 mm and a density of 240 kg / m, is suitable for coating glass bottles for beer and other beverages 5 with a capacity of 30-35 Cl.

Fig. 7-11 anskueliggør, hvorledes et hylsteremne kan anbringes på og krympes omkring en beholder ved fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen. Et af foliematerialet udskåret rektangulært emne formes omkring 10 en roterende dorn 31 til et cylindrisk hylster 19 med overlapning mellem emnets bageste kantzone 20 og dets underliggende forreste kantzone, som fastholdes til dornen ved sugning. Ved hjælp af varme og tryk sammenføjes de overlappende kantzoner af hylsteret.FIG. 7-11 illustrate how a casing blank can be applied to and shrunk around a container by the method of the invention. A rectangular blank cut from the foil material forms about 10 a rotating mandrel 31 into a cylindrical casing 19 with overlap between the trailing edge zone 20 of the blank and its underlying leading edge zone which is secured to the mandrel by suction. By means of heat and pressure, the overlapping edge zones of the casing are joined.

15 En flaske 10, som har en temperatur på over 80°C, anbringes i flugt med hylsteret 19 oven på dornen 31, og en med dornen koaksial afstryger 38 løftes og medtager derved hylsteret 19, hvis tværsnit på grund af overlapningssømmen antager let elliptisk 20 form. Hylsteret formes på dornen 31 med en diameter, som er en smule større end flaskens største diameter, og på grund af det elliptiske tværsnit kommer hylsteret til at sidde passende stramt om flasken på to diametralt modstående steder, som vist i fig. 8.A bottle 10 having a temperature greater than 80 ° C is flush with the sleeve 19 on top of the mandrel 31, and a coaxial stripper 38 is lifted, thereby including the sleeve 19, whose cross section due to the overlap seam assumes slightly elliptical 20. form. The casing is formed on the mandrel 31 with a diameter slightly larger than the largest diameter of the bottle, and due to the elliptical cross section, the casing will fit snugly about the bottle at two diametrically opposed locations, as shown in FIG. 8th

25 Der er opnået udmærkede resultater ved krymp ning af hylsteret på en varm flaske, hvis temperatur ligger i området 80°-150°C. Når hylsteret er af polystyren, er temperaturen af den varme flaske fortrinsvis ca. 105°C.25 Excellent results have been obtained by shrinking the casing on a hot bottle whose temperature is in the range of 80 ° -150 ° C. When the casing is made of polystyrene, the temperature of the hot bottle is preferably approx. 105 ° C.

30 I afhængighed af det benyttede plastmateriale og tykkelsen af hylsteret kan temperaturen af den varme flaske varieres, og omvendt kan tykkelsen af hylsteret vælges under hensyn til en bestemt temperatur, som den varme flaske har fra sin fremstilling.30 Depending on the plastic material used and the thickness of the casing, the temperature of the hot bottle may be varied, and conversely, the thickness of the casing may be selected taking into account a particular temperature that the hot bottle has from its manufacture.

35 Fig. 9 viser stillingen af hylsteret 19, når 8 143642 det er skubbet op på flasken 10, således at den nedre kant af hylsteret ligger i en med 0 angivet afstand under flaskebunden 17 . En afstand 0 på omkring 1,25 cm vil som regel være tilstrækkelig til, at det 5 færdigkrympede hylster overlapper standfladen 18 på bunden 17 af flasken.FIG. 9 shows the position of the sheath 19 when it is pushed up on the bottle 10 so that the lower edge of the sheath is at a distance indicated by 0 below the bottom of the bottle 17. A distance 0 of about 1.25 cm will usually be sufficient for the 5 shrink shroud to overlap the stand surface 18 on the bottom 17 of the bottle.

Afstrygeren 38 trækkes nu ned igen, og flasken 10 med hylsteret 19 ophænges i en overføringstang 41, der transporterer flasken og hylsteret ind i og 10 gennem en aflang tunnelovn 42, se fig. 10 og 11, hvor opvarmet luft cirkuleres i en lodret strømning.The stripper 38 is now pulled down again and the bottle 10 with the sheath 19 is suspended in a transfer rod 41 which transports the bottle and sheath into and 10 through an elongated tunnel oven 42, see fig. 10 and 11, where heated air is circulated in a vertical flow.

Med et hylster 19 af opskummet polystyrenplast er lufttemperaturen fortrinsvis ca. 205°C, og i løbet af et tidsrum på 4-15 sekunder vil hylsteret 19 krympe 15 til stramtsiddende indgreb med flasken 10 til dannelse af den færdige beholder med overtræk som vist i fig. 1-3. Med cirkulation af varm luft vil den nødvendige gennemløbstid ligge omkring undergrænsen for tidsområdet, medens krympetiden i en ovn med stille-20 stående luft ved 205°C vil være nærmere 10-15 sekunder. Lufttemperaturen i ovnen 42 vil selvsagt variere med den ønskede produktionshastighed og med det anvendte hylstermateriale. De fleste krympelige ter-moplastmaterialer kan krympes med rimelige produktions-25 hastigheder ved ovntemperaturer i området 80°-430°C.With a foamed polystyrene plastic sheath 19, the air temperature is preferably approx. 205 ° C, and over a period of 4-15 seconds, the sheath 19 will shrink 15 to tightly engage the bottle 10 to form the finished container with coating as shown in FIG. 1-3. With hot air circulation, the required throughput time will be around the lower limit of the time range, while the shrinkage time in an oven with still air at 205 ° C will be closer to 10-15 seconds. The air temperature in the furnace 42 will, of course, vary with the desired production rate and with the sheath material used. Most shrinkable thermoplastic materials can be shrunk at reasonable production rates at oven temperatures in the range of 80 ° -430 ° C.

Forvarmning af flasken til en temperatur i området 80°-150°C afhængigt af plastmaterialet forøger produktionen og resulterer i forbedret kvalitet af produktet .Preheating the bottle to a temperature in the range of 80 ° -150 ° C depending on the plastic material increases production and results in improved product quality.

30 Så snart hylsteret 19 er krympet stramt på flasken 10, tages flasken ud af ovnen. Eftersom den vertikale overlapningssøm i hylsteret har en anden tykkelse og/eller massefylde end de tilstødende enkeltlag, vil der opstå en lille ujævnhed i hylsteret på 35 tværs af standfladen 18. Ved at presse flasken mod enAs soon as the casing 19 is shrunk tight on the bottle 10, the bottle is taken out of the oven. Since the vertical overlap seam of the sheath has a different thickness and / or density than the adjacent single layers, a slight unevenness will occur in the sheath across the stand surface 18. By pressing the bottle against a
