Abstract
A method of forming a sealing or mounting strip on the periphery of a vehicle door 4 is disclosed. The method includes providing a fixed extrusion device 15 for producing an extruded sealing or mounting strip, moving the door 4 with respect to the fixed extrusion device 15, while operating the extrusion device 15 to produce the extruded sealing or mounting strip, such that the sealing or mounting strip 10 is formed along a desired path 10 on the door 4. The door 4 is mounted in a frame 27 which clamps the door 4 around the door's edge. The frame 27 is movable by any suitable means, such as by a robot typically used in automated vehicle fabrication plants. By making use of the frame 27 and movement means already provided in a conventional automated vehicle fabrication plant, little or no additional cost is incurred by providing for movement of the door 4 with respect to the fixed extrusion die 15.
