A lean and smart pultrusion die is proposed. The concept arose from a thermal analysis which showed that present dies involve large heat losses balancing large power inputs with temperature excursions being damped by high die mass. As power costs increase and control costs decrease, pultrusion dies may evolve toward low mass, highly insulated dies with a computer for monitoring and control purposes as well as for heat transfer estimates.
