Method and device for producing containers from thermoplastic material

A method for producing containers from preforms made of thermoplastic material with a blow molding machine comprising at least one temperature control device and one forming device having at least two forming stations, wherein the preforms are heated to a temperature for radial and axial expansion under control of the temperature control device on the basis of specifiable first control parameters, wherein one temperature-controlled preform, respectively, is formed by one of the forming stations on the basis of specifiable second control parameters into a finished container, wherein at least one of the second control parameters is individually specified for each of the forming stations, wherein at least one property of the finished container is metrologically acquired, and in consideration of the metrologically acquired property, the individual second control parameters for the forming station used for forming the relevant container are suitably specified to influence the relevant property with regard to desired container specifications for containers subsequently molded in the same forming station, wherein a time behavior of at least one of the individual second control parameters is acquired for the forming station, and wherein a possible change of a component characteristic of a component of the forming station associated with the at least one control parameter is derived from the time behavior of the at least one control parameter.
