Material of the profile to be extruded plays an essential role in determining process parameters and potential limitations of a process. For example, minimum thickness of extruded carbon steel sheet is 3mm whereas same sheet of aluminium can be extruded into minimum sheet thicknesses of 1mm.
DFM stands for design for manufacturing, so as the name suggest the design is manufacturing friendly, in simple terms design that can be manufactured easily and cheaply. DFM guidelines define a set of rules for a person designing a product to ease the manufacturing process, reduce cost and time.
Examples of T-slotted profiles 1964 patent demonstrating early use of extruded T-slot members. Cross-section of 80/20 T-slotted profiles, 10 and 15 series A bicycle trailer for bike-trekking with three Euroboxes and aluminium profile framing
A horizontal hydraulic press for hot aluminum extrusion (loose dies and scrap visible in foreground) There are many different variations of extrusion equipment. They vary by four major characteristics: [1] Movement of the extrusion with relation to the ram. If the die is held stationary and the ram moves towards it then it is called "direct ...
Microextrusion is an outgrowth of microforming, a science that was in its infancy in the early 1990s. In 2002, Engel et al. expressed that up to that point, only a few research experiments involving micro-deep drawing and extruding processes had been attempted, citing limitations in shearing on billets and difficulties in tool manufacturing and handling.

6061 is an alloy used in the production of extrusions—long constant–cross-section structural shapes produced by pushing metal through a shaped die. Cold and Hot Stamping. 6061 sheet in the T4 condition can be formed with limited ductility in the cold state.

Die design is critical because of the large forces required. To reduce the friction of the pushed sample is lubricated with grease for example mixture of graphite and oil, [ 5 ] and to reduce the forces, the process is sometimes carried out at elevated temperatures but then recrystallization can occur which can also leads to excessive grain ...
