Extruder Types

Focusing on delivering the best quality extrusion type for your next project 

Profile-extrusion: Single screw extrusion uses one screw within a cylindrical barrel to continuously push plastic through a metal die cut into the desired shape.

Co-extrusion: Plastic co-extrusion is used to create an extruded part with multiple performance characteristics related to the different types of plastic materials. 

Tri-extrusion: Tri-extrusion is fundamentally the same process as co-extrusion, except with three different materials to create a part instead of two.
