BRICK DIES

French manufacturer of dies, BMI designs and manufactures solutions adapted to the extrusion equipment of the clay industry.

our EXPERTISE

MULTI-BRAND & CUSTOM-MADE

Dies available in multi-outlet configurations (8 or 12 outlets) to meet high production rate requirements.

Custom design possibility to adapt the die to the characteristics of your clay, shrinkage and product format.

BMI dies are designed to ensure homogeneous clay distribution and stable extrusion.

The design of the frame, tie bars and adjustment systems optimizes compression and the quality of extruded products.

Externally adjustable braking system, allowing quick adjustment of outlet speeds. Removable inlet frames and die architecture designed to facilitate maintenance operations.

Selection of technical materials and treatments adapted to extrusion constraints to improve wear resistance and die service life.

BMI designs and manufactures dies intended for brick production for the clay industry.
Developed according to your machine, your clay and your production objectives, our dies ensure extrusion stability, dimensional accuracy and product consistency.

We offer standard multi-outlet dies for high production rates as well as custom dies, developed according to the specific constraints of your process.

  • Independent outlets Independent outlet adjustment with our externally adjustable braking system and our stackable counter cores to optimize outlet speeds.

  • Optimized compression Long frame length to improve product density.

  • Homogeneous clay distribution Conical multi-outlet comb holder frame.

  • Tie bars Independent tie bars per outlet and rod system with anti-rotation to ensure better adjustment.
