How to design plastic extrusion for optimum quality and cost effectiveness
Application Any profile such as a channel or tube can be extruded.
Part Design Avoid multiple enclosures. Eliminate mass where possible this contributes to uneven walls. Uniform walls are key.
Thickness Ideal thickness is 030 – 080. Thicker walls up to .250 can be extruded.
Tolerance The wider the tolerance the faster the extrusion can run. 1-2% of the dimension is ideal.
Avoid unnecessary thick walls.
Materials Some materials process easier than others. Some materials require more sophisticated
dies and after forming equipment.
Multiple Enclosures
