According to the study of the experiment the extrusion die dimensions, parts and function in the die

is discussed. The extrusion die includes, the female die, mandrel, heating band and. In terms of die
design the objective is to produce an annular extrudate that is uniform in thickness and velocity
around its circumference and which has no weld lines a processing fault which occurs when the
melt flow front is divided and the fronts do not knit together fully when rejoined due to insufficient
time, melt pressure or melt temperature. The central core (or mandrel), generates the internal
features of the internal features of the profile. Holds the melt that has been distributed to a number
of channels within the mandrel. The cross-section of these channels decreases in the flow direction,
whilst there is a corresponding increase in the gap between the mandrel and the cylindrical outer
wall of the die. Thus, as the melt flows around the circumference of the mandrel it is increasingly
forced from the spiraling channel into the axial flow within this gap. A spiral mandrel is of use here.
The melt flows from the adapter through a hole to a spiral channel around the mandrel. As the melt
flows up the spiral, progressively more melt is able to escape from the spiral and flow by the annular
gap between mandrel and die. Eventually all the melt is flowing up the annulus and on into a
reservoir just behind the die land. Female die and male dieheating bandthermoelement.
Conclusion:

Extrusion die is suitable in producing uniform profile for pipes and tubing. Understanding the part
functions of die, the mandrel, stem, and heating band. Extrusion die produces product that
