Machine for manufacturing a hollow article made of thin glass

A machine for manufacturing a hollow glass article comprising at least one thin side wall, said machine comprising:

• at least one molten glass parison distributor,
• a blank mold comprising a cavity designed to successively receive at least one parison of molten glass,
• a first blowing nozzle connected to a source of pressurized gas for forming a blank of said article in the blank mold,
• a finishing mold,
• a handling arm for transferring the blank into a cavity of the finishing mold,
• a second blowing nozzle connected to a source of pressurized gas for forming the article in the finishing mold,
• wherein the cavity of the finishing mold comprises at least one side part provided with a concave cavity to form, on the side wall of the article, a convex bulge directed towards the exterior of said article, wherein the cavity is adapted to form a planar inner face on the side wall of the article,
• wherein the machine comprises a cutter to remove the bulge to give the side wall of the article a substantially constant thickness, said
• cutter configured to cut the bulge so as to form an exterior face of the side wall of the article, and
• a polisher configured to polish the exterior face.
