Continuous stretch blow moulding system applied to specified integral handle pet preform and container structures

A continuous transfer system comprising containers stretch blow molded from injection molded preforms with integral handles in a continuously rotating stretch blow molding machine are fed to a filling and capping machine;

• and an orientation of the integral handle controlled from entry of a preform into the stretch blow molding machine to the emergence of filled and capped containers from the filling and capping machine.

A continuous transfer system for containers with integral handles stretch blow-molded from injection molded preforms with integral handles, comprising:

• the transfer system transferring the containers with a known orientation of the integral handle from a continuously rotating stretch blow-molding machine to an automatic continuously filling and capping machine;
• a re-orientation device intermediate a discharge channel of the stretch blow-molding machine and the automatic continuously filling and capping machine adapted to optionally reorient the containers from the known orientation to another desired orientation prior to entry into the automatic continuously filling and capping machine.
