Extrusion dies and die casting molds, designed and made in our own tool room. Available on their own, or as part of a full production package.
CANEX designs and makes extrusion dies and die casting molds in its own tool room, under the same roof as our extrusion presses and die casting lines. Our engineers can design the die from your profile or part drawing, or make it to your own die design. We use simulation software to validate each die design before manufacturing, helping reduce revisions.
Dies are available as a standalone service. Buy the die and we ship it to your plant, or own the die and keep it at CANEX, where we run your extrusion or die casting production with it.
Because tooling is made in-house, die correction and maintenance are handled by the same team that made the die, keeping your production running to specification.
Every stage of die making is handled in our own tool room, from design to aftercare.
