ABSTRACT:
A method of making tubular bodies from thermoplastic material by extruding a parison through an extruder head die slit which is then expanded in a blow mold. The position of the parison and particularly a thickened portion thereof is regulated and/or controlled relative to critical cross-sectional regions of the hollow body blown therefrom. The hollow body of the separated lower waste portions and/or the net weight of the hollow body is measured in order to control and/or regulate the position of the thickened portion of the parison and to change the die slit as need be upon deviation from a reference value. The latter is particularly beneficial in accumulation head operation, while in continuous operation, either the hollow body net weight and the weight of the lower waste-portion is measured and compared with a reference characteristic or the hollow body net weight is compared to a reference characteristic and markings reflective of the critical cross-sectional regions of the blown article are sensed.
