Abstract: It is provided a WPC extrusion profile comprising a WPC material, in which plant fibers are embedded in a plastic matrix, wherein the WPC material has a content of naturally growing plant fibers of between 30 and 75 wt-%, and the WPC extrusion profile includes at least one foam-filled hollow chamber. The at least one hollow chamber of the WPC extrusion profile is completely filled up with a foam, in particular a closed-pore foam. The foam includes or consists of a plastic material of the same type of plastic as the matrix of the WPC material. The foaming is effected by using a physically acting blowing agent, in particular CO2, wherein the density of the foam is less than 0.4 g/cm3 and the average cell size of the foam has a mean diameter of less than 0.4 mm.

Abstract: The invention relates to an extrusion nozzle for an extrusion device for extruding plastic profiles, having at least one nozzle plate (1) which has at least one flow channel (2) for plastic melt, and at least one insert element (4) which is inserted into the at least one flow channel (2) in order to reduce a cross-sectional area of the at least one flow channel (2) through which the plastic melt can flow. At least one holding device (3) is provided in the at least one flow channel (2), on which the at least one insert element (4) is arranged.

Abstract: It is provided an apparatus for supporting the erection of a plastics profile during the start-up process of an extrusion line for the extrusion of plastics profiles. An initially bulky profile strand of the plastics profile, which is withdrawn through a calibration unit, can be enclosed by a profile guiding trim of a profile guiding device in front of a caterpillar take-off, wherein the profile guiding trim and/or the profile guiding device can be spatially fixed against a displacement in the extrusion direction in front of an inlet region into the caterpillar take-off and can be shifted and fixed with regard to the vertical and/or lateral position and/or can be rotated about the extrusion direction and be fixed.
