Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods and systems for producing plastic profiles. In one example embodiment, a method is disclosed including the steps of plasticizing a starting material in an extruder on an extrusion line, pressing the starting material through an extrusion die, cooling and calibrating the extruded material in a dry calibration and/or a wet calibration, and cutting the extruded material to length to form individual profile rods, cutting to length one or more profile samples can be requested intermittently at any point in time, applying, via a labeling device, on the profile samples characteristic information relating to the current extrusion process, taking into account the transit time of the profile.

Electronic assistance for cutting profile samples to length, with the extrusion and test parameters being accurately assigned

The invention describes an apparatus for cooling and calibrating an extruded plastic profile () with a cooling tank () receiving a cooling liquid, with calibrating elements () disposed within the cooling tank () for the plastic profile () subjected to the cooling liquid, and with a draw-off device () which is disposed downstream of the cooling tank () in the draw-off direction of the plastic profile (). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that at least one damping device () is provided between the inlet-sided calibrating element () of the cooling tank () and the draw-off device (), which damping device rests at least in sections in the zone of one circumference on the plastic profile ().
