Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of packaging liquids or semi-liquids in containers, and in particular, to a machine provided with a system for printing information directly on a container or label applied to said container. In particular, the invention relates to a machine (1) for printing information on a container or blank label applied to said container, comprising: at least one rotary information printing station (2, 2?); a system (3) for feeding containers to said at least one rotary information printing station (2, 2?); a system (4) for picking the printed containers from said at least one rotary information printing station (2, 2?).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heating system for preforms upstream of a blowing or stretch-blowing machine, in particular a heating system using monochromatic infrared radiation, preferably laser-generated. In particular, the invention relates to a heating system (301) for preforms (P), comprising a carousel for treating the preforms (P) comprising a plurality of heating elements (304) configured to be inserted either inside or outside each preform (P) and to radiate electromagnetic radiation in the infrared field which forms, in such a device, a disc of radiation according to a radial symmetry which departs from the center of the axis of the preform and which appropriately converges and diverges.

Abstract: Described herein is a preform heating device, in particular a heating device which uses monochromatic infrared radiation preferably generated by lasers. In particular, a heating device for preforms is configured so as to be positioned outside a preform and radiate an electromagnetic radiation in the infrared range, forming a radiation disk in such a device according to a radial symmetry with respect to the center of the preform axis.
