A system for producing filled plastic containers from sterilized plastic preforms, includes a transport device for transporting the plastic preforms and plastic containers produced from the plastic preforms by forming, along a predetermined transport path through the system, a forming apparatus for forming the sterilized plastic preforms into plastic containers, and a filling apparatus for filling the plastic containers during their at least sectional transport substantially along a circular line about a central axis of the filling apparatus. The forming apparatus and the filling apparatus have a maximum distance from one another in relation to their respective central axes of 5.5 m, preferably of 5.3 m, and the forming apparatus has a maximum number of 24 forming stations or of 6.0 m, preferably of 5.6 m, and the forming apparatus has more than 24 forming stations.
A system for producing filled plastic containers from sterilized plastic preforms, comprising a transport device for transporting the plastic preforms and plastic containers produced from the plastic preforms by forming, along a predetermined transport path through the system, comprising a forming apparatus for forming the sterilized plastic preforms into plastic containers, wherein the transport device is suitable and intended for supplying the sterilized plastic preforms to the forming apparatus, wherein the forming apparatus has a transport carrier which can be moved about a central axis and on which a plurality of forming stations each for forming a plastic preform into a plastic container by applying a flowable medium is arranged, comprising a filling apparatus for filling the plastic containers during their at least sectional transport substantially along a circular line about a central axis of the filling apparatus,
A method for operating a system for producing filled plastic containers from sterilized plastic preforms, comprising a transport device, which transports the plastic preforms and plastic containers produced from the plastic preforms by forming, along a predetermined transport path through the system, comprising a forming apparatus, which forms the sterilized plastic preforms into plastic containers, wherein the transport device supplies the sterilized plastic preforms to the forming apparatus, wherein the forming apparatus has a transport carrier which can be moved about a central axis and on which a plurality of forming stations each for forming a plastic preform into a plastic container by applying a flowable medium is arranged, comprising a filling apparatus for filling the plastic containers during their at least sectional transport substantially along a circular line about a central axis of the filling apparatus,
