ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for controlling a gob distributor of an IS or RIS machine for manufacturing hollow glass articles. The apparatus comprises a hydraulic drive, which is connectible to a position control device associated with the gob distributor, so as to move the distributor in oscillating or swinging motions. The hydraulic drive is controlled by a valve which, in turn, is actuated by a computer unit. The electronic arrangement of the apparatus includes an adapter, a digital-analog converter operatively connectible between the valve and the adapter, a parallel interface and connectible to the latter, a computer, a memory, and a synchronizer. The apparatus affords swift, precise, and controlled deposition of a glass gob which leads to the production of a parison in glass article manufacture.
