Apparatus for producing plastic containers has a heating device having a transport device for transporting the plastic preforms singly along a predefined transport path. The transport device has a plurality of holding devices for holding the plastic preforms, and at least one heating unit for heating the plastic preforms, wherein furthermore a rotating device is provided which rotates the plastic preforms held by the holding devices and is connected to a forming device, which transforms the plastic preforms transported by the heating device into plastic containers. The apparatus has an alignment device which enables alignment of the rotational position of the plastic preforms with respect to their longitudinal direction relative to the holding devices holding these plastic preforms and/or the apparatus has a rotational position alignment device arranged along the transport path which enables alignment of a rotational position of the holding devices with the plastic preforms arranged thereon.
An apparatus for producing plastic containers, having a heating device for heating plastic preforms, wherein the heating device has a transporting device configured to transport the plastic preforms individually along a predetermined transport path, and this transport device has a plurality of holding devices configured for holding the plastic preforms, and at least one heating unit is provided configured to heat the plastic preforms, wherein further a rotating device also being provided, configured to rotate the plastic preforms held by the holding devices during their transport through the heating device with respect to their longitudinal direction, and with a forming device configured to form the plastic preforms transported by the heating device into plastic containers, wherein this forming device has at least one forming station configured to form the plastic preforms into the plastic containers by the action of a flowable medium,
A method for producing plastic containers, wherein plastic preforms are heated by a heating device, wherein the heating device has a transport device which transports the plastic preforms singly along a predetermined transport path, and this transport device has a plurality of holding devices which hold the plastic preforms, and at least one heating unit being provided, which heats the plastic preforms and wherein furthermore a rotating device rotates the plastic preforms held by the holding devices during their transport through the heating device with respect to their longitudinal direction and wherein a forming device forms the plastic preforms transported by the heating device into plastic containers, wherein this forming device has at least one forming station which forms the plastic preforms into the plastic containers by being acted upon by a flowable medium,
