1. A method for making seals, comprising
providing an upstream/downstream system, where the upstream portion includes at least one first main extruder, at least one first calibrator device, and at least one first cooling tank; and, where the downstream portion includes at least one downstream extruder, at least one second cooling tank, and at least one pulling device; extruding a first material with said at least one first main extruder to form a structural member; pulling said structural member through said first calibrator device and said first cooling tank, forming a final profile of said structural member; extruding a second material with said at least one downstream extruder, forming at least one additional feature for bonding to said structural member, said second material having a different durometer than said first material; bonding said at least one additional feature to said structural member; pulling said structural member with said at least one additional feature using said pulling device through said second calibrator device and second cooling tank, forming a final profile of said at least one additional feature; and cutting said seals to a predetermined length. |
