ABSTRACT:
A method for continuous transferring of hollow plastic articles from a first station to a second station, wherein articles at the first station are arranged in a first number of N.sub.1 columns and wherein articles at the second station are arranged in a second number of N.sub.2 columns, and wherein N.sub.2 differs from N.sub.1 and equals N.sub.1 times x, x being either an integer greater than 1 or a fraction, includes the steps of: transferring a first batch of articles on a carrying member from the first station to an array of N.sub.2 columns on the holding member at the second station; advancing at least a portion of the articles on a first number of holding members from the second station toward the blow molding station and replacing the advanced first number of holding members with a corresponding second number of holding members; transferring a second batch of articles on the carrying member from the first station to an array of N.sub.2 columns on the holding member of the second station, including at least the second number of holding members; and advancing at least a portion of the articles on the second number of holding members from the second station toward the blow molding station.
