Method and apparatus for the hot forming of glass workpieces, and hot-formed glass container

A method for molding glass, comprising the following steps:

• a) heating a glass workpiece until the glass of the workpiece softens;
• b) molding the workpiece with a molding tool, wherein the workpiece is positioned on an inner molding tool and is rotated about an axis of rotation and outer lateral surfaces of the workpiece are molded by an outer molding tool, wherein the outer molding tool has at least one shaping roller with at least one shaping surface and the at least one shaping roller is fixed to an accommodating apparatus by a releasable locking device, such that, during the molding, a relative movement is executed between the at least one shaping surface and the workpiece, and at least a part of the at least one shaping surface that comes into contact with the workpiece during the molding is covered with an oil as lubricant;
• and
• c) releasing the locking device, rotating the at least one shaping roller through an angle α, repeating steps a) and b), and fixing the at least one shaping roller again such that, when steps a) and b) are repeated, a different part of the at least one shaping surface of the at least one shaping roller comes into contact with the workpiece, wherein, during one of steps a) to c), oil is applied to a part of the at least one shaping surface that is not in contact with the workpiece at the time the oil is applied.
