Why choose us

Precision extrusion that delivers measurable results

Every profile is engineered to meet strict tolerances and zero-defect standards.
1

Zero surface defects guaranteed

Our multi-cavity dies eliminate common extrusion flaws — no scratches, pits, or die lines. Each profile passes a 100% visual and dimensional inspection before shipment.

Result: no rework, no scrap, no delays on your assembly line.
2

High-tenacity aluminum-magnesium alloys

We hot extrude 6061-T6 and similar alloys that maintain strength after forming. The material chemistry is verified per heat lot to ensure consistent mechanical properties across every batch.

Result: structural profiles that hold up under cyclic loads and harsh environments.
3

Strict geometric tolerances

Our dies are designed with compensated shrinkage models and precision EDM machining. Typical tolerances stay within ±0.15 mm on critical dimensions, even for complex multi-cavity shapes.

Result: profiles fit without shimming or post-machining adjustments.
4

Multi-cavity die design expertise

We engineer dies with balanced flow channels to produce multiple identical profiles per cycle. This reduces per-part cost while maintaining uniform wall thickness and surface quality across all cavities.

Result: higher throughput without compromising part consistency.
5

Full traceability from melt to pack

Each extrusion run is logged with alloy heat number, die revision, press parameters, and inspection records. You receive a certificate of conformance with every order.

Result: complete audit trail for ISO 9001 or AS9100 compliance.
6

Short lead times for custom tooling

Our in-house die shop can design and cut a new multi-cavity die in 10–14 working days. We use simulation software to validate flow before steel is cut, reducing first-run trial iterations.

Result: faster time to first article and quicker production ramp-up.

Trusted by engineers across the industry

Our extrusion dies and profiles are used in structural frames, rail systems, and architectural assemblies where zero defects are non-negotiable.

⭐ 4.9 / 5.0 Dimensional consistency

We switched to Smabe for our curtain wall mullions. Every profile matches the CAD spec within 0.1 mm. No rework needed on site.

🏭 12 years Multi-cavity die reliability

Their custom die for our rail channel runs 24/7 with zero surface defects. Tool life exceeded our estimate by 40%.

✅ 98% first-pass yield Zero-defect production

After auditing three suppliers, Smabe was the only one that guaranteed no surface flaws on 6061-T6 extrusions. They delivered.

🔧 500+ dies delivered Engineering support

Their team helped us redesign the die cavity to reduce material waste by 15% without affecting tolerances. Practical, no-nonsense advice.

Extrusion Capabilities & Process Control

Every profile is produced through a tightly controlled hot extrusion process, from multi-cavity die design to final dimensional verification.

Multi-Cavity Die Engineering

We design and manufacture custom multi-cavity dies for high-tenacity aluminum-magnesium alloys. Each die is optimized for balanced metal flow, consistent wall thickness, and minimal post-extrusion finishing.

Tighter geometric tolerances across all cavities

Hot Extrusion of 6xxx Series Alloys

Our presses run 6061, 6063, and 6005A alloys at controlled billet temperatures and ram speeds. The process parameters are logged per batch to ensure repeatability across production runs.

Zero surface defects and consistent mechanical properties

In-Line Dimensional Inspection

Every extruded length passes through laser micrometers and vision systems that check critical cross-section dimensions, straightness, and twist against the CAD model. Out-of-spec profiles are flagged and removed automatically.

100% inspection with real-time SPC data

Surface Quality Assurance

We enforce a strict die maintenance schedule and use nitrogen purging during extrusion to minimize oxidation. Finished profiles are visually inspected under controlled lighting for scratches, die lines, and discoloration.
