Co-Extrusion
|
|
Co-extrusion is a technique in which multiple layers are extruded together. It is used widely in sheet, film, and tubular extrusion applications.
|
| |
Cold Extrusion
|
|
Cold-working extrusion processes are performed at or near room temperature. High stresses require robust tooling. Because cold-working is a strengthening process, the worked material is not subject to the same levels of oxidation inherent in the thermal cycling associated with hot extrusion. Cold extrusion is suitable for tubing, gear blanks, etc.
|
| |
Dual Extrusion
|
|
Dual extrusion and multi-durometer extrusion are techniques in which materials of different hardnesses are combined in a single extrusion. A common application is the combination of a rigid material with a flexible material in one cross-section. The rigid component adds strength and structural alignment, while the flexible component may have a function such as sealing. Variations can include combining materials of different colors and laminates with varying layer properties.
|
| |
Hot Extrusion
|
|
Hot-working extrusion processes uses the good deformability of heated metallic or thermoplastic materials for shaping. Extrusion at elevated temperatures enables considerable changes of shape to be achieved in a single operation where otherwise shaping them is impractical. Very complex sections can be produced that are not achievable with other shaping techniques. Extrusion can also offer economic advantages in that the dies are relatively inexpensive and are interchangeable, so that one extrusion machine can be used for the production of a wide variety of sections.
In hot extrusion, a metal billet heated to the appropriate temperature is fed into the cylindrical container of the extrusion press and is forced by the action of a ram through a steel die whose orifice has the desired shape to produce the solid or hollow section. The metal emerges from the die as a continuous bar, which is cut to the required lengths. Extrusion products are therefore essentially “linear” in character, in the sense that shaping is confined to the cross section only.
|
| |
Hydrostatic Extrusion
|
|
Similar to impact extrusion, hydrostatic extrusion relies on a more gradual ram application than the impact extrusion technique.
|
| |
Impact Extrusion
|
|
Impact extrusion is a technique in which a small amount of material is forced through a die by a ram, often in a tubular or similar cross-section. Very significant material deformation makes this process suitable for relatively soft materials such as aluminum, lead, or tin. One application of impact extrusion is for collapsible tubular sections or cans.
|
| |
Reverse / Backwards Extrusion
|
|
Reverse or backwards extrusion is a technique in which the material blank is forced to flow in the direction opposite the extruding pin, plunger, or ram. It may be combined with impact or hydrostatic extruding. This process is used for cans or collapsible tubes.
|
| |
Wire Drawing
|
|
Wire drawing processes force a material through successively smaller dies, thereby reducing the cross-section.
|
| |

Unlisted, specialized, or proprietary extrusion technique.

Secondary Operations
|
|
|
| |
Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Machining
|
|
Suppliers can perform machining operations such as turning, milling and boring on extruded parts.
|
| |
Grinding
|
|
Grinding provides smooth and precise material finishes. It can also be used to finish high-hardness wear surfaces.
|
| |
EDM Cutting
|
|
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) cuts metal via discharge from an electrode. The two primary types are wire EDM, in which the electrode is a thin wire typically made of brass or other alloys, and ram EDM, in which the electrode is a specially shaped piece of graphite or copper alloy.
EDM is noted for tight dimensional tolerances and high finish quality without secondary operations such as lapping or grinding.
|
| |
Water / Abrasive Jet Cutting
|
|
Water jets and water abrasive jets rely on highly pressurized water (20,000 - 60,000 psi) flowing through a nozzle or "jewel" approximately 0.010" in diameter. Advantages include almost no material heating during cutting, low side loads, and ability to achieve complex shapes and tight inside radii. Low fixturing costs and fast setup and programming times make this process very suitable for prototypes or short runs. It is most widely used for two-dimensional cutting; three-dimensional machining is possible in specialty applications.
Pure water jets are typically used to cut very soft material such as fabrics or rubber; metals usually require abrasives in the stream. "Water Jet" is a generic term that is sometimes used to cover both processes.
|
| |
Heat Treating / Stress Relieving
|
|
Heat treating is a broad category of processes for treating metals. Processes include annealing, passivation, hardening, etc. Stress relieving may be important to relieve residual stresses imposed during the extrusion process.
|
| |
Welding
|
|
Welding joins metals and metal-extruded parts by melting and re-forming a metal bond between materials, with or without additional filler metal.
|
| |
Anodizing
|
|
Anodizing is a galvanic finishing process well-suited to aluminum and its alloys. Anodize finishes can be hard for wear-resistance applications, or can include corrosion-resistant properties or a wide variety of colors.
|
| |
Electroplating
|
|
Electroplating is a finishing process often used for materials such as brass, bronze, and copper. A wide variety of colors and textures can be achieved.
|
| |
Painting / Powder Coating
|
|
Painting and powder coating apply decorative and/or protective finishes. Coatings are usually thicker than plating or anodizing finishes.
|
| |
Printing / Labeling
|
|
Printing and labeling techniques are used for inventory management and identification purposes, and include processes such as etching, stamping and screen printing.
|
| |
Other
