Abstract
This chapter deals with computer aided design of profile extrusion dies used for
polymer processing. After a brief introduction to the overall problem and the terminology of
optimisation, the POLYOPT optimisation layer, which uses POLYFLOW as the
simulation software and DOT as the optimisation software, is introduced. Several examples
will show the feasibility of this approach.
