  • PET blanks referred to below as preforms
  • preforms are first blown into PET bottles in a blow molding machine.
  • the bottles are passed by means of a transfer device (or transport device) to a filler in order to be filled there with (hot) filling material.
  • the bottles which have not yet been closed are subsequently "nitrogen-dried" with nitrogen and sealed shortly thereafter.
  • This process is also known as nitro-hotfill process.
  • the bottle bottom is cooled in the transfer area between a blowing machine and a filler by means of water jets working in series.
