If your product is a difficult design challenge‚ you can go beyond conventional design methods using an extrusion.

In the extrusion process‚ heated material is forced through a die by a hydraulic ram. The shape of the opening inside the die represents the section of your final product.

Processing your parts this way can save you money and even eliminate parts by combining them into one piece.

There are 3 primary reasons to use extrusions:

• When a uniform section and repeatability of the product is required
• When the structural strength of the product is imperative
• When higher quantities also require lower cost

When you have a large quantity of parts that may be cut from a very complex‚ continuous cross–section needing exact dimensions and structural integrity‚ extrusion would be the process for you.

Often times multiple components can be made into one part‚ lowering your overall costs.
