The invention relates to a moulding system (3), in particular a
calibration die (17), for an extrusion plant, with preferably parallel
inlet and outlet faces (28, 29) spaced at a distance apart and with side
faces (30, 31, 32, 33) extending between them. A longitudinal axis for
the object to be fed through a calibration orifice (24) is disposed
substantially perpendicular to the inlet and outlet face (28, 29).
Provided between a shaping surface (25, 26) and a side face (30, 31, 32,
33) is a gap (37, 38) extending at least across a part of the distance
between the inlet and outlet face (28, 29). The gap (37, 38) is disposed
between several immediately adjacent parts of several shaping surfaces
(26) of the calibration orifice (24) and at least one of the side faces
(30, 31, 32, 33). At least the parts of the shaping surfaces (26)
co-operating with the gap (37, 38) are displaceable relative to the other
shaping surfaces (25).
