Method for producing individual polymer profiles by extruding interconnected polymer profiles and separating them

A method for producing polymer profiles, having a varying thickness over a width of said polymer profiles and with only one longitudinal side tapering off to form a thin edge, said method comprising the steps of:

• extruding simultaneously a plurality of said polymer profiles through a common die such that said thin edge of each one of said polymer profiles is connected to said thin edge of at least a neighboring one of said polymer profiles to form an interconnected extrudate;
• providing in a cross-section of said interconnected extrudate an arrangement of said individual polymer profiles in which each angle between angle bisectors of said interconnected neighboring thin edges is between 45.degree. and 135.degree., said arrangement having one common connection line, with said thin edges extending towards said common connection line of said arrangement;
• and
• separating said polymer profiles from one another after said step of extrusion.
