Taking pride in what you offer to your customers is just one facet of the automotive industry. There’s a complex interplay that runs through every stage of production, showcasing a level of craftsmanship that, even in our robotic age, is evident in the meticulous attention given to each component.

A vital element of this process is extrusion, one of the most prevalent manufacturing techniques today. Mastering this method can lead to significant improvements in production speed, quality, and overall efficiency.

As you probably already know, extrusion is a manufacturing technique that involves pushing raw material through a specially shaped die to produce items with a defined shape and profile. While plastic injection molding leads the way in this field, the extrusion process is specifically designed to create objects with a consistent cross-sectional profile. Moreover, extrusion aligns the molecules in the plastic, enhancing the strength of the final product along its length. This method of producing long, continuous profiles is also quite cost-effective.

However, there’s much more to extrusion than simply pushing plastic through pipes.

Selecting the right manufacturer who understands the advantages and disadvantages of using ram, screw, or multi-screw methods, and who can provide guidance on hot, warm, or cold extrusion, can be a significant benefit. This choice can lead to high-quality parts, ultimately enabling you to deliver exceptional products to your customers.
