Iterms about the Process of Glass Whiskey Bottles
BLOW & BLOW：expression used to identify the production principleof the I.S machine making narrow neck containers. glass is brown in the blankmold and later brown again in the blow mold.
The funnel has two functions. First it acts as a guide for the gob to enterthe blank. Second it provides clearancefor the introduction of “settle blow” air into the blank.
2. Baffle
The baffle has two functions. First it provides settle blow air throughinternal porting in the baffle. Secondit seats on top of the blank completing the blank cavity for the formation of theparison.
3. Blank
The blank is the primary piece usedto form the parison through the use of settle blow air and counter blowair. It is designed to provide thecorrect amount of glass wall thickness throughout the finished container.
4. Neckring
The neckring consists of twoneckring halves and a guide ring. Theguide ring is an internal part and normally forms the top of sealing surface ofthe finish. The neckring forms thefinish and holds the parison during transfer from the blank to the mold. The guide ring is sometimes referred to as aguide plate.
5. Thimble
The thimble guides the plunger intothe neckring and creates a seal for counter blow air.
6. Plunger
The plunger forms the inside surfaceof the finish and provides counter blow during the parison forming process.
7. Mold
The mold forms the finished container.
8. Bottom Plate
The bottom plate is used inconjunction with the mold to form the finished container. The bottom plate forms the bottom of thecontainer.
9. Blowhead
The blowhead sits on top of themold. It is used to introduce final blowair into the parison blowing it to the shape of the mold.
