UPVC Profile Extrusion Line – Version 6 by EXTRUTEX

High-Capacity, High-Precision, and Long-Term Profitability

Introduction

In the fast-paced world of modern construction, UPVC profiles have become an essential material for windows, doors, and structural elements that demand durability, insulation, and minimal maintenance. Unlike wood, which is prone to swelling, or aluminum, which can conduct heat and corrode, UPVC delivers a balanced combination of thermal stability, weather resistance, and cost-effectiveness.

Behind every reliable UPVC profile lies a carefully engineered extrusion line, where raw PVC compounds are melted, shaped, cooled, cut, and stacked into finished profiles ready for assembly. The heart of such production lies in the extrusion tooling that defines the geometry, and the downstream equipment that ensures stability, accuracy, and efficiency throughout the line.

EXTRUTEX, a company with decades of European engineering experience, has consistently pushed the boundaries of extrusion technology. With the introduction of the Version 6 UPVC Profile Extrusion Line, EXTRUTEX offers its most advanced solution to date — a line designed for output up to 450 kg/h while maintaining world-class dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

This new generation system integrates high-performance extrusion tooling, intelligent downstream equipment, and energy-efficient drives, ensuring manufacturers can achieve high capacity, high profitability, and unmatched consistency in their production.

Technical Introduction – Double Strands Extrusion Tooling for UPVC Profiles, Version 6 Line

Introduction

In modern UPVC profile production, extrusion tooling is the heart of the process. It is the critical component where melted raw material is transformed into precise, stable, and high-quality profiles. When the tooling is engineered with precision, it directly influences the dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and efficiency of the entire extrusion line.

For manufacturers looking to achieve high output with stable quality, the Double Strands Extrusion Toolingdeveloped for the Version 6 EXTRUTEX line offers an advanced, industrial solution. This system is designed to produce two identical profiles simultaneously, delivering a production capacity of 450 kg/h with speeds above 3.5 meters per minute, while ensuring durability, cost efficiency, and long-term stability.


Key Features of the Double Strands Extrusion Tooling

✅ Dual Outlet Structure (Double Strands Cavity)

The tooling incorporates two fully independent flow channels that form two UPVC profiles at once. Each cavity is engineered with symmetrical flow distribution to guarantee identical dimensions and surface quality.

Benefits:

  • Doubles productivity without increasing screw speed.

  • Optimizes plant floor utilization by producing two profiles in parallel.

  • Reduces per-meter production cost, ideal for high-volume manufacturing.


✅ Optimized Melt Flow Distribution

Inside the tooling, CFD-based flow simulations have been applied to design perfectly balanced channels. The melt is distributed evenly, preventing local pressure build-up or cooling delays.

Result:
Both strands exit the tooling with identical thickness, geometry, and surface smoothness.


✅ Robust, Wear-Resistant Construction

The body of the tooling is manufactured from alloyed tool steel with hardened surfaces and hard chrome platinginside the flow channels. This ensures maximum resistance against abrasion caused by fillers such as calcium carbonate, while also maintaining surface finish for years.

Advantages:

  • Long tooling life with minimal degradation.

  • Reduced downtime due to fewer replacements.

  • Stable operation under high-pressure extrusion.


✅ Integrated Cooling System

Given the high output capacity of 450 kg/h and profile thicknesses above 3 mm, efficient thermal management is crucial. The tooling includes internal water-cooling channels arranged in a closed-loop system to control mold temperature.

Outcome:

  • Dimensional stability of the extruded profiles.

  • Prevention of deformation, burning, or warping during the shaping stage.

  • Smooth transition to downstream calibration.


✅ Adjustable Inserts for Dimensional Flexibility

The tooling incorporates removable and adjustable inserts at the die exit. This design allows fine-tuning of profile width or thickness within a defined range, without replacing the entire tooling set.

Key Benefits:

  • Faster setup when switching between similar profile sizes.

  • Cost reduction by minimizing the number of separate tooling sets needed.

  • Easier maintenance and part replacement.
