Tooling & Spares
Keep the press running.
High-performance tooling and critical spare parts for aluminium extrusion. Containers, stems, tooling components and critical wear parts operate under extreme mechanical and thermal loads, and their condition directly affects productivity, extrusion quality, equipment reliability and unplanned downtime.
Reliable tooling. Longer service life. Less downtime.

More than a spare part
The right component for the right operating condition.
A replacement part should not simply fit dimensionally. It must also perform under the actual operating conditions of the extrusion line. All of these factors can influence component lifetime and performance, so ECONS approaches tooling and spare-part supply from an engineering perspective: components are specified according to your actual operating conditions rather than treated as generic catalogue items.

- Press force
- Billet diameter
- Production cycle
- Alloy mix
- Wear mechanism
- Cooling conditions
- Maintenance practice
Extrusion containers
Built for pressure. Heat. Repeated cycles.
The extrusion container is one of the most highly loaded components of an extrusion press. It must withstand repeated thermal cycling, high extrusion forces and continuous production while maintaining dimensional stability and supporting reliable billet processing. Every press is different, so container solutions are engineered according to the actual line rather than selected solely from standard dimensions.
- Billet diameter
- Container dimensions
- Liner concept
- Heating concept
- Material selection
- Operating temperature
- Press force
- Interface dimensions
Extrusion stems
Transfer the force. Protect the process.
The extrusion stem transfers the press force directly into the billet and is a critical link between the main press system and the extrusion process. High mechanical loading, alignment requirements and repeated operating cycles make correct design and manufacturing essential.
- Stem diameter
- Stem length
- Press force
- Connection concept
- Material
- Alignment
- Operating conditions
- Reliable force transmission
- Stable press operation
- Reduced risk of premature tooling failure
- Consistent alignment
- Improved tooling reliability
Critical tooling components
Designed for the extrusion process.
Depending on the press configuration and application, ECONS supplies additional extrusion-tooling and wear components. The exact supply scope is defined according to your existing equipment, tooling concept and production requirements.
- Die rings
- Bolsters
- Pressure components
- Tooling supports
- Wear components
- Press-specific tooling
Critical spare parts
Small component. Big consequence.
A critical machine with no spare part available is still an unreliable asset. Spare-part scope is matched to the equipment on your line, the wear behaviour you see in production and the service strategy you want to run.

Send us your press configuration, billet dimensions and wearing components. We come back with a specification, not a catalogue page.
Customized to existing equipment
New machine or 20-year-old press — the part still has to fit.
Extrusion plants often operate equipment from different manufacturers, generations and countries of origin. The challenge is therefore not simply supplying a part — it is ensuring that the replacement component is compatible with the actual installed equipment.
ECONS can work from available technical information to define the required replacement solution. Where sufficient technical data is available, tooling and spare parts can be adapted to the customer’s existing equipment and interface conditions.

Spare parts strategy
Reduce the risk of waiting for the part after the failure.
For critical production equipment, spare-parts strategy should be defined before a breakdown occurs. ECONS can support customers in identifying components that should be held as:
Operational Spares
Parts used routinely in normal operation.
Critical Spares
Components whose absence stops the line.
Wear Parts
Consumable components with a predictable life.
Strategic Long-Lead Spares
Items that must be secured well in advance.
Supplier flexibility
The best source for the application.
ECONS is not limited to one manufacturing source. Depending on the component, material, tolerance requirements, delivery schedule and commercial target, we can evaluate suitable manufacturing options.
The objective is not simply to find the lowest price. It is to identify the best overall supply solution for the application.

Quality where it matters
Tooling is a production asset.
Critical press tooling should be evaluated with the same discipline as machine equipment. Depending on the component and project requirements, quality control can include verification of:
Material Specification
Heat Treatment
Critical Dimensions
Machining Quality
Interfaces
Documentation
Final Inspection
Because a component that fails prematurely can cost far more in production losses than the original purchase price.
From drawing to delivery
From Drawing to Delivery.
01 — Requirement
Customer machine, component and operating data are reviewed.
02 — Technical Definition
Dimensions, material, interfaces and operating conditions are clarified.
03 — Supplier Selection
Suitable manufacturing partners are evaluated.
04 — Manufacturing
The component is produced according to the agreed technical specification.
05 — Quality Control
Critical requirements are checked before release.
06 — Delivery
The finished component is prepared for shipment to the customer.
Why ECONS tooling & spares?
Why ECONS Tooling & Spares?
Engineering-Driven
Components are selected around the actual machine and process requirements.
Customized
Designed according to the customer’s installed equipment.
Multi-Source
Access to different qualified manufacturing options.
Technical + Commercial
Performance, quality, delivery and cost are evaluated together.
Critical-Spares Focus
Support for parts that directly influence plant availability.
Extrusion Know-How
Tooling decisions are made with an understanding of the extrusion process, not only the drawing.
Tooling & spares
Protect production before downtime starts.
The right tooling. The right spare. At the right time. Every hour of press downtime has a cost — the value of a critical spare part is measured by the production it helps protect.
Tooling that performs. Spares that keep you running.
Reliable supply. Engineered fit. Better plant availability.
