US Patent 11801628 Method for producing hollow bodies made of plastics

A method for producing hollow bodies made of plastics by blow molding or deep drawing using a deep-drawing tool or a blow-molding tool, comprising the extrusion of preforms from thermoplastics, the method comprising a wall thickness control of the preforms, wherein a measurement of the wall thickness of the preforms takes place within the tool on the mold cavity side on at least one reference point of a preform, the measured value obtained is compared as an actual value with a predetermined target value and the wall thickness control is triggered to change the wall thickness of the preform during extrusion or between extrusion cycles depending on the deviation between the actual value and the target value.
