Die Support Tooling and Die Housing

With increasing demands on the extruder for close tolerance and thin wall extrusions necessitating minimal die deflection, stringent requirements for support tooling are paramount. Intoco’s engineers are actively involved in the design and manufacture of new tool stacks to accommodate this requirement.
