Automatic systems for extrusion-dies

Retrofit-able automatic system for your extrusion-dies. This is the most economical way to switch to thickness control in film and sheet extrusion. Many manufacturers of extrusion-dies use these systems in order to offer automatic extrusion-dies.

Actuators: steel bolts with heating cartridges, operating range 300 µm + manual adjustment.
Partition of actuators: 30, 28 or 25,4 mm (1”) 
A perfect system for automatic for thickness control in film- and sheet extrusion. The system is controlled by modern thickness gauges, which are able to control automatic extrusion-dies.

Standard System: Thermal bolts 

Actuators: steel bolts with heating cartridges, operating range 300 µm + manual adjustment.
Partition of actuators: 30, 28 or 25,4 mm (1”). 
Perfect system for automatic extrusion-die adjustment.

Sophisticated System: FRAD (Full Range Automatic Die)

System for automatic extrusion-die adjustment in order to get a even thickness profile + electronically gap changing.retrofitted extrusion-die
