Pultrusion die

Flat-strip and deck-board pultrusion dies

A deck-board pultrusion die forms a continuous board section from resin-wetted reinforcement; a flat-strip die forms a solid rectangular section. Henan Zhongsheng lists deck examples of 130 × 27, 150 × 18 and 200 × 50 mm and a 150 × 5 mm flat-strip example. These are customizable catalogue examples, not stock sizes or capability limits.

Configuration brief

Start with the section you need to form.

  1. Flat strip or shaped board

    Provide the complete cross-section, including any internal webs, edge joints and surface features. Width and overall depth alone do not define a deck-board die.

  2. Specify the measurement method

    State the support arrangement and gauge length for flatness or bow checks. Ask the factory to distinguish die-cavity inspection from measurements on cured board samples.

  3. Define downstream fit

    Identify mating boards, fasteners or end fittings that should be checked during sample review. Request separate scope for any surface finishing or secondary operation.

Review the configuration with engineering before the quotation is finalized.

Tooling workflow

Agree each step from drawing to trial

Use these stages to define responsibilities, interfaces and the evidence needed at handover.

  1. 01

    Review the board section

    Confirm overall width, thickness, edge detail and any hollow regions against the drawing.

  2. 02

    Review reinforcement and heating

    Ask for the proposed guide arrangement, heater interfaces and support of any internal tooling.

  3. 03

    Agree a trial protocol

    Define material, sample length, conditioning and checks across the board width.

  4. 04

    Inspect samples and interfaces

    Review the dimensional report, mating-edge fit and die mounting before accepting the agreed scope.

Scope of supply

Define the supply package and its options

Request an itemized quotation against these lists. A catalogue description does not confirm that every item is included.

Core equipment and work to specify

  • Die body and cavity finish: configuration to confirm against the approved drawing
  • DFM and approval documents: deliverables and revision allowance to confirm
  • Preforming guides and mounting interfaces: itemize quantities in the quotation
  • Trial pull, samples and dimensional report: agree materials, duration and charges

Options and services to price separately

  • Heating plates, thermocouples and controls: request a separate scope line
  • Mandrels and supports for hollow sections: confirm whether included or additional
  • Resin injection box and connection to existing equipment: price if required
  • Refurbishment, replacement inserts and sample freight: request separate pricing

Prepare your enquiry

Send a brief that can be quoted

Include the drawings and requirements below so engineering can confirm the configuration, exclusions and lead time.

Include in your RFQ

  • Full cross-section drawing with edge joints and internal webs
  • Width, thickness and flatness tolerances with measurement length
  • Resin formulation, reinforcement and surface-finish requirements
  • Heater width, mounting layout and pulling arrangement
  • Trial sample length, quantity and mating components
  • Requested spare inserts, delivery date and destination

Agree the acceptance evidence

  • Measure thickness at agreed locations across the board width.
  • Check width, edge geometry and any web dimensions against the drawing.
  • Check bow, twist or flatness using the agreed sample support and gauge length.
  • Confirm mating-edge fit and the supplied tooling inventory where contracted.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

Are the four published sizes available from stock?
Stock status is not established. The listed dimensions are catalogue examples; availability, a new drawing and lead time need confirmation.
Does the quoted die include a deck production line?
Only the items explicitly listed in the quotation are included. Pulling equipment, heating, cutting and any secondary finishing should each have a defined scope.
Can I request a different width or thickness?
The source offers customization. Send the full section and machine interfaces for feasibility review; no width or thickness envelope is inferred from the examples.
How should flatness be accepted?
Agree sample conditioning, support points, measurement length and allowable deviation before the trial. Do not substitute a die straightness entry for a finished-board flatness requirement.
