Systems and methods for adjusting the thickness of extrudate in an extrusion die system are disclosed. The lip adjustment assembly includes: an engagement member connected to a moving lip of the extrusion die and movable in a first direction and a second direction opposite the first direction; an actuator configured to move the engagement member in a first direction and a second direction; a coupler connected to both the engagement member and the actuator and disposed between the engagement member and the actuator; and an insulator on the coupler and configured to prevent heat from being conducted from the engagement member to the actuator. When the engaging member moves in the first direction, the moving lip moves toward a second lip of the extrusion die, and when the engaging member moves in the second direction, the moving lip moves away from the second lip. 公开了用于调节挤出模具系统中挤出物的厚度的系统和方法。唇部调节组件包括：接合构件，该接合构件连接到挤出模具的移动唇部并且能够在第一方向和与该第一方向相反的第二方向上移动；致动器，该致动器被构造成使接合构件在第一方向和第二方向上移动；联接器，该联接器连接到接合构件和致动器两者并且设置在该接合构件和该致
