ABSTRACT:
A method of shaping an extruded section of polymer directly onto the surface edges of a glazing or glass plate. In one embodiment, a rotatable plate member having a plurality of calibrated die cross sections is placed in front of the exit orifice of an extrusion die. The plate member is rotated to obtain, an extruded section having different profile cross sections and the flow rate of the polymer through the die is controlled in response to the position of the plate member so that the amount of polymer being fed corresponds to the respective profile section being extruded. In another embodiment, an obturating slide member is placed in front of an extrusion die exit orifice sized to correspond to the largest desired profile cross section. To produce abrupt changes in profile cross section, the slide is moved quickly at predetermined locations along the path of the extrusion die. To produce a continuous transition between profile sections, the slide is moved slowly during extrusion. The flow rate of the polymer material to be extruded is regulated in response to the position of the obturating slide member.
