  • the rollers roll on the rectangular rail on the top, bottom and side surfaces for guiding the extrusion puller along the extrusion axis.
  • US-A-4,079,616 discloses a draw bench for producing cylindrical tubular items.
  • a roller mounted carriage is mounted on a set of rollers to traverse the drawing axis.
  • the guide means are essentially an inverted W-shape cross-section wherein the rollers of the extrusion puller are inserted into the bight portions of the inverted W-shaped guide means and supported on an inward extending flange. Rollers are incorporated on the extrusion puller for tracking along the flanges.
