Extrusion molding is used to produce a wide range of plastic products, including pipes, tubing, window frames, and electrical insulation.

Extrusion Mould

Extrusion molding is a manufacturing process used to produce long, continuous shapes with a constant cross-section, such as pipes, tubing, and rods. The process involves pushing or pulling a heated material, usually plastic, through a die to form the desired shape.

The benefits of extrusion molding include the ability to produce long, continuous shapes with a uniform cross-section, high production rates, and the ability to produce parts with a wide range of shapes and sizes. However, the process is limited in its ability to produce parts with complex shapes or features.

01Material preparation

Plastic pellets or granules are melted and fed into an extruder.

02Extrusion

The molten plastic material is pushed or pulled through a die, which shapes it into the desired cross-sectional profile.

03Cooling

The extruded material is cooled by passing it through a water bath or air cooling system.

04Cutting

The extruded material is cut to the desired length.
