Claim 7:
8. A container treatment method for containers, where said containers are transported with a transport device, where said containers are treated by at least one treatment assembly at a first transport section of said transport device, where at least one robot unit subsequently channels individual treated containers out and/or in at a second transport section of said transport device, and where said individual treated containers are inspected with at least one inspection device,
wherein,
said treated containers are transported in said second transport section as a container flow that is widened as compared to said first transport section, so that said individual treated containers are transported there at reduced speed and/or with reduced dynamic pressure when being channeled out and/or in, and
said individual treated containers are channeled out from said widened container flow in a first step by said at least one robot unit, subsequently inspected with said inspection device in a second step, and then in a third step are channeled into said widened container flow at least in part by said at least one robot unit.
