Abstract: A container treatment system for producing and treating preforms, wherein the container treatment system comprises a production machine for producing preforms, at least one container treatment machine arranged downstream of the production machine in a transport direction of the preforms, and a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to control a flow of preforms in the container treatment system based on a component of the container treatment system being down.

Abstract: A container processing system, the container processing system comprising a production machine for producing preforms, in particular an injection molding machine, a heating device for heating preforms, a blow molding machine for molding preforms into containers, a first transport device for transporting preforms along a first transport direction to the heating device and a second transport device for transporting heated preforms from the heating device to the blow molding machine, wherein the container processing system occupies a fictitious base area in the shape of a rectangle and the production machine, the heating device and the blow molding machine each occupy a fictitious component base area in the shape of a rectangle, wherein a longest side of the base area has a length that is smaller than the sum of the longest sides of the component base areas and the length of the first and the second transport device.
