Flow balancing in extrusion dies for thermoplastic profiles. Part III: Experimental Assessment

A computer code, previously developed by the authors for the automatic die design, is used to optimise the flow distribution in a profile extrusion die using two alternative strategies: one based on length optimisation and the other on thickness optimisation. The numerical predictions are then compa...
