Abstract

Abstract The work or blank holder, die, mandrel and press punch or ram in an extrusion press are cleaned, particularly for removal of residue resulting from lubrication of the blank with glass prior to extrusion, in that a mica ring is placed between punch or ram and blank and extruded for most of its parts in the last phases of extruding that blank to obtain the cleaning. A left over portion of that ring is extruded ahead of extruding the next blank.
