Die design criteria the die is the assembly located at the end of an extruder which contains an orifice used to shape a plastics melt figure 1.
Pvc extrusion die design.
Die design is basically a procedure where the internal die configuration is shaped to deliver polymer from the entrance to the exit with the same pressure drop.
A cold die will restrict flow where as a too hot die will affect dimensions.

Extrusion process plastic profile extrusion is a molding method in which plastic resin is continuously melted pushed through a die with the desired cross section a profile and then pulled through a water bath until fully cooled.
When optimum temperatures are reached it is known as the temperature profile.
2002 discussed how the size and shape of an extruded product changes from that of the die flow channel and how to control the size and shape of the product.
