Abstract
An apparatus for forming a conduit having at least one strip-shaped substrate dividing the conduit into channels. The apparatus contains an extrusion die having an exit and defining a flow direction for polymeric material forming the conduit. The extrusion die contains a first point for the introduction into the extrusion die of polymeric material forming a first polymeric layer of the conduit, a second point for the introduction into the extrusion die of polymeric material forming a second polymeric layer of the conduit, and a slot within the extrusion die having a thickness, a width, a first edge, and a second edge. The slot is configured for receipt of a strip-shaped substrate and extends in the flow direction along the extrusion die. The thickness of the slot varies along the width of the slot and the thickness of the slot is greatest at the first edge and second edge of the slot.
