Gob loading explained:

The gob of molten glass travels down the delivery system and enters the blank mold through the funnel. The funnel serves two purposes; first is to guide the gob into the blank mold without causing marks and second is to provide the seat for the baffle to start step two.

After the baffle has seated on the funnel compressed air enters the blank mold through the baffle and compresses the glass into the neck ring to form the finish of the container.

While the baffle is moving to seal the bottom of the blank mold the plunger moves down from the finish and compressed air enters the finish through the plunger to blow the glass tight against the blank mold to form the parison. Once the parison is formed the counterblow air shuts off, the thimble moves down, the baffle moves off the blank mold and the blank mold opens.
