Well-balanced dies

Adequate flow balance is a key factor for product quality, geometrical tolerances, die life and extrusion speed. Improved flow balance is reached by improving the die geometry. This is why MTD performs CAD die conception together with numerical simulation (the MTD Simulation Aided Design). To optimise the flow balance in extrusion dies, MTD resorts to numerical flow modelling to make the right choice between different geometry concepts.

Simulation Aided Design helps to balance flow, predict the bearing lengths, master tolerances and reduce the number of corrections, for any complex die (full / hollow  profiles)
