Guill Now Offers Pultrusion Dies

Guill Extrusion Division Enters Pultrusion Market with Advanced, Custom-Engineered Tooling Solutions

Guill, a global manufacturer and designer of extrusion dies, proudly announces the expansion of its product portfolio to include custom-engineered pultrusion dies. This strategic move marks a significant advancement in providing comprehensive, high-quality tooling solutions for industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, energy, marine, sporting goods and telecommunications.

As the demand for pultruded composites grows due to their strength, durability and lightweight properties, Guill is well-positioned to meet this need. Leveraging its expertise in extrusion tooling, Guill is now applying its precision engineering capabilities to develop innovative pultrusion dies tailored to the specific requirements of each target industry.

“We are excited to enter the pultrusion market with our advanced tooling solutions,” said Peter Leary, Technical Sales Engineer at Guill. “Our extensive knowledge of extrusion processes and commitment to custom engineering enable us to design dies that not only meet but exceed our clients’ expectations in terms of performance, efficiency and quality.”

The Guill Tool Extrusion Division has a long history of designing and manufacturing tooling for various applications, including medical tubing, wire and cable coating, hose production and multi-layer extrusions.  Its capabilities include creating multi-layer crossheads, in-line, reciprocating, rotary dies and a variety of other custom solutions supporting materials such as plastics, rubber and silicone.

New Pultrusion Tooling for Advanced Composite Applications
Guill’s new line of pultrusion dies is engineered for industries utilizing fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP), such as:

*   Fiberglass Reinforced Polymers (FRP)
*   Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP)
*   Aramid Fiber Reinforced Polymers (e.g., Kevlar)
These dies are compatible with a range of polymer matrices, ensuring versatility and high performance across different applications.

Tom Baldock, Guill sales manager, is looking forward to introducing a whole new set of customers to the company’s dies. He notes, “Pultrusion is a cost-effective process for producing parts with a constant cross section in high volumes, requiring relatively little labor. Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) pultruded composites are durable, corrosion-resistant and eco-friendly.”
