MTD offers a global, integrated approach to the extruder's needs.

The MTD integrated problem-solving approach combines extrusion practice, technology knowledge, experience in extrusion problem solving for small and big press, as well as numerical trials performed with electronic computers.

The MTD Simulation Aided Design integrates numerical simualtion within the usual design procedures and includes die design, extrusion process and cooling optimisation.

Key factors for the extruder are e.g. extrusion speed for big runners, flow balance, process parameters and process control, mastered thermal evolution, profile cooling, dimensional tolerances, microstructure, metallurgy, weld seam quality and mechanical properties. This MTD integrated approach acts as a decision factor to make the right choice between different concepts.
