Products/Services for Extrusion Die Manufacturers

  •  
    Sheet and Film Dies - (17 companies)
    Sheet and film dies, also referred to as slit dies, create large, thin expanses of plastic material from extruded polymers. Sheet and film dies transform extruded polymer into thin, malleable masses after extrusion. These dies process polymers...
  • Extrusion Machines-Image
    Extrusion Machines - (335 companies)
    Extrusion machines force or pull unformed material into alignment guides and shaped dies to produce lengths of stock forms and cross-sectional shapes. They are used mainly in the plastics, metals, and composite-forming industries. Extrusion machines...
  •  
    Metal Extrusions - (141 companies)
    ...tin, and steel. What is Extrusion?. Extrusion is a process used to create a shape of a fixed cross-sectional profile. Extrusion is done by squeezing metal in a closed cavity through a tool known as an extrusion die using either a mechanical...
  • Aluminum Extrusion Services-Image
    Aluminum Extrusion Services - (202 companies)
    Extrusion is done by squeezing metal in a closed cavity through a tool known as a die using either a mechanical or hydraulic press. Extrusion produces compressive and shear forces in the stock. No tensile is produced which makes high deformation possible...
  • Tool and Die Makers-Image
    Tool and Die Makers - (1265 companies)
    Tool and die makers manufacture progressive tooling, stamping dies, jigs, fixtures, and other tooling. Tool and die makers manufacture fourslide tooling, jigs and fixtures, progressive dies, sheet metal forming dies, welding fixtures, and custom...
  •  
    Downstream Extrusion Equipment - (96 companies)
    ...or punched by an extrusion die cutting machine, formed and bent into long sections that are then further processed by a metal cutting machine into smaller pieces. Applications. Aluminum extrusion products are used extensively in building...
  •  
    Extrusion Services - (859 companies)
    ...in a closed cavity through a tool known as a die using either a mechanical or hydraulic press. Extrusion produces compressive and shear forces in the stock. No tensile is produced which makes high deformation possible without tearing the metal...
  •  
    Impact Extrusion Services - (21 companies)
    Impact extrusion services produce components by using a die and high-impact pressure. Rams force small amounts of materials through dies, often in tubular or specially-shaped cross-sections. Because very significant material deformation occurs...
  •  
    Plastic Extrusion Services - (328 companies)
    Extrusion is a process used to create a shape of a fixed cross-sectional profile. Extrusion is done by squeezing material in a closed cavity through a tool known as a die using either a mechanical or hydraulic press. Extrusion produces compressive...
  •  
    Mold and Die Change Equipment - (64 companies)
    ...and quick die change equipment is used to expedite many different processes. Examples blow molding, compression molding, die casting, die forging, extrusion, injection molding, investment casting, lost foam casting, permanent mold casting, powder metal...

...to the extrusion die at relatively constant temperature, pressure and viscosity. However, even the slightest variation in the raw material or process will affect product dimensions. The manufacturing of small diameter tubing which must be held to ±0.001" or less dimensional tolerances, is particularly sensitive...

Extrusion is the process where a solid plastic (also called a resin), usually in the form of beads or pellets, is continuously fed to a heated chamber and carried along by a feedscrew within. The feedscrew is driven via drive/motor and tight speed and torque control is critical to product quality...

Plastic extrusion is a popular manufacturing process that involves melting resin pellets and pushing them through a die to create a continuous plastic profile or shape. However, this process can be limited to producing parts that are only capable of the limits of the single material being extruded...

Co-extrusion is a process in which multiple types of plastic are extruded simultaneously through a single die. There are several benefits to using co-extrusion for parts made via plastic extrusion....

In this second of our 'educational' blogs we introduce the subject of tooling. When asked what the word "tooling" means in the context of the plastic extrusion process, there is a two-part answer. Part one is the die, which is used to shape the cross-section of the profile as the plastic...

The molten die-casting method is the basis of the injection molding process. The injection-molding unit consists of two elements: the clamping unit, and the injection unit. Unlike extrusion, injection molding forms three-dimensional shapes. Joseph Brahman patented the first hydraulic press in 1795...

It is often said that the three most important factors in producing a high-quality extrusion are temperature, temperature and temperature. The temperature of the billet (sometimes called a log), the temperature of the die and the temperature profile of the extrusion as it quenches (cools) are all...

The extrusion process may be very easily visualised perhaps the best examples are the meat grinder and the toothpaste tube. However the very simplicity of these examples belies the complexity of the process and extrusion technology is highly developed both as a science and as an art. The extrusion...

All commercially-available In Die Tapping (IDT) designs today utilize some sort of spring-loaded misfeed protection system which is intended to protect the tap and, most importantly, the tapping device itself in the event of a: * No-hole condition due to a short feed of the material strip...
