Die Head Refurbishment
Die Head Refurbishment Services
– Precision Cleaning, Surface Strengthening & Hardening
We provide advanced die head refurbishment services to restore the performance of your extrusion tooling and extend its operational lifespan. Through a carefully controlled refurbishment process, we ensure consistent quality, improved reliability and optimal extrusion performance.
Our refurbishment process includes:
-
Disassembly and thorough inspection to identify wear, damage and potential defects.
-
Pyrolytic cleaning to effectively remove polymer residues and other contaminants without damaging the tool.
-
Repair and precision machining, when required, to restore critical dimensions and functionality.
-
Mechanical polishing and surface finishing to improve surface quality, reduce friction and optimize performance.
-
PVD coating (when required) to increase wear resistance, extend tool life and improve corrosion resistance.
-
Final quality inspection, where every tool is carefully examined before delivery.
Whether your die heads are affected by wear, polymer build-up, corrosion or dimensional deviations, our refurbishment process delivers reliable and consistent results. Our goal is to restore your tooling to optimal operating condition – and in many cases, even improve its performance and service life.
