The cost of running my semi-hollow extrusion is almost cost prohibitive. It needs five extrusions, sheet, rivets, etc., and is very labor-intensive. My finished products need to be resilient. Our product is used in food packaging.
Combustibility is a major factor in the design of exterior trim for our product.
The cost of running my semi-hollow extrusion is almost cost prohibitive. A- To reduce the cost of your extrusion, reduce the ratio between the void area and the gap. Any improvements in reducing the size of the void will reduce pressure on the die tongue and provide easier extrusion. Another way to reduce the void is to increase the wall thickness. While the weight per foot will be greater, it is possible that the price per foot will be less.
