A fin block is provided for a calibrating device for the calibrating of an extruded plastic profile, wherein the fin block includes a back structure and a fin structure having a plurality of fins. The fins are spaced apart from one another and arranged on the back structure in longitudinal direction (L) of the back structure. The back structure of the fin block has a plurality of apertures, the shape and/or arrangement of which within the back structure depends on a predetermined mechanical load capacity for the back structure. Furthermore, a method for the production of the above-mentioned fin block and a calibrating device, which includes a plurality of the above-mentioned fin blocks, is provided. Furthermore, a system for the additive manufacture of the above-mentioned fin block, a corresponding computer program and a corresponding data set is provided.

Fin block for a calibrating device

A seal for use in an extrusion device for producing continuous profiles, in particular plastics pipes includes an elastic sealing disc, which is arranged in a plane approximately perpendicularly to the extrusion direction and has a through-passage opening letting through the continuous profile and having a sealing rim bearing against the continuous profile. Connection members are arranged along the sealing rim, and clamping elements are provided for exerting a force on the connection members, with the force acting radially with respect to the extrusion axis. The clamping elements are arranged in a plane parallel to the sealing disc, have a passage opening for the continuous profile and include connecting members for connecting the connection members to the clamping elements.
