(FMC) and moisture content of feed (MCF) viz. 10%, 15%, 20%, 30% and 10%, 15%, 20%, 30% (wb) respectively. Then the blend was placed in a close vessel at room temperature for 2 hours to equilibrate before extrusion. The mixtures were then sieved using 0.5 mm mesh screen. Extrusion Process: Extrusion was performed with a co-rotating twin-screw extruder (Model BTPL-1, Basic Technology Pvt. Ltd. India). The extruder screw and ply cutter were driven by 5 hp motor and a variable speed DC motor respectively
1.2. INTRODUCTION TO EXTRUSION LINE The word Extrusion Line means machinery used in extrusion. Here, the word extrusion line is used for machine which is used in production of PVC pipe. Pipe extrusion is defined as a process of forcing the polymer melt through a shaping die (in this case: circular). The extruded from the die is sized, cooled and the formed pipe is pulled to the winder or a cut off device with the aid of haul off device. prior to this, the plastic material in the form of polymer granules
INTRODUCTION Extrusion technology which had emerged in 19th century was initially used to blend the rubber scraps and reuse them with an economical aspect. Thomas Hancock had developed the first extruder which was not known as extruder at that time and was rather known as the rubber masticator (GogosC.G., 2006). In later stages, extrusion came as an emerging technology for manufacturing of plastics - mainly, after the development of twin screw extruder in Italy (RauwendaalC., 2001). Along with the
Extrusion Extrusion is a compressive and deformation process. The process entails squeezing a block of material such as Aluminium, forcing it through a die. The die has a job of reducing it’s diameter and increasing it’s length. This method results in a constant cross-sectional cut and a desired shape. The process of extrusion is mainly used in situations where the material can’t be hammered or bended due to their specific properties such as being too soft or too brittle. The common materials
Extrusion produces material such as pipe or tubing, weather-stripping, fencing, plastic films and sheeting, deck railings, window frames, thermoplastic-coatings, and wire insulation. In the plastics extrusion, the raw compound material is usually in the form of nurdles, small beads which often called resin, that are gravity fed into a top mounted hopper
contributes to the hardness, intense yellow colour and nutty taste of the pasta. Besides this, it also produces pasta with excellent cooking quality and stability to overcooking. (Sissons 2008) Pasta making process usually involves wetting, mixing and extrusion. Semolina will be hydrated during mixing to produce pasta dough that is strong and elastic. Upon application of mechanical work or energy under control temperature and moisture condition, pasta dough will be forms. Dough properties such as dough
Food extrusion is a high-temperature short-time process “HTST” which utilizes a combination of temperature, pressure, and shear force to convert the moistened starchy and proteinaceous raw materials into highly expanded, low-density products with unique physicochemical properties. Advantages of extrusion process include improving digestibility by gelatinization of starch, denaturation of proteins and inactivation
The extrusion process parameters, like screw speed, feed rate, temperature, geometry, moisture content, protein and fiber content, heat capacity, et, al., largely define the final product characteristics, including product microstructure, product chemistry or the macroscopic shape of products. According to operating temperature, the extrusion can be classified into sub-zero Celsius processes for the manufacture of ice cream, normal extrusion for food products, including snacks
1. Introduction Polymeric materials play a functional role in every aspect of daily life, from clothing to infrastructure. Polymers differ greatly from other materials, such as ceramics or metals, based upon the types of bonding. Metals bond metallically, creating a sea of electrons, and ceramics generally bond ionically, strongly tying electrons to lattice points. Polymers bond covalently in carbon chains, which (in general) make their properties more variable due to the possibilities of arrangement
very fast much faster than other processes that were present at this time. However because the electrodes were so expensive to make they had to be sold expensive as well which made them hard to sell. It was only till 1927 that they developed and extrusion method of producing these electrodes efficiently enough to lower the cost substantially enough to for stick welding to really take off and gain the popularity that it has now as the one of the four most used welding
Companies in the news for security breaches are now benefiting from their newly found hindsight via way of a lack of security point of view. These views come at a highly expensive cost and it should come as no surprise that many companies will continuously and gratuitously benefit from those views. The reason I believe this is because companies just don 't get it. At the cost of millions of dollars spent post compromise, companies rush off to apply band-aids where sutures are needed. Anyone with
discrete particles gradually from the material from the contacting surface of the screwdriver. Improvements that can be made: In manufacturing the handle we can use injection molding instead of extrusion method. Because extrusion molding method has a limitation in the types of handle it can make. Though extrusion method also can make a selective variety of handles but it will be more cost effective and time affective when compared to injection molding.

Aluminum Extrusion Group in Lausanne, Switzerland. Ferdows and Thurnheer examined the difference between factory fitness and leanness. The article examined how the Hydro Aluminum Extrusion Group designed, launched, and managed a comprehensive factory fitness program in 42 locations across five continents between 1986 and 2001. Importantly, the factory fitness program was based on the sand cone model, but was slightly modified to fit the business strategy of the Hydro Aluminum Extrusion Group. The

4. TYPES OF PLASTICS MANUFACTURING Plastics have revolutionized the way we do business, the way we move from place to place, and the way we imagine our world. Devices like cellular phones, laptops, syringes, cars and credit cards all use plastic in their manufacture and were not uneconomical or in some cases physically impossible to make without this malleable substance. Plastic manufacturing varies by product. 4.1.Injection Mold • The most common and recognizable plastic manufacturing process is
INTRODUCTION: Traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) occur with great frequency in preschool, school age children and young adults comprising 5% of all injuries for which people seek treatment.1,2 A twelve year review of the literature reports that 25% of all school children experience dental trauma and 33% of adults have experienced trauma to the permanent dentition with the majority of injuries occurring before age 19.3 Luxation injuries are the most common TDIs in the primary dentition, whereas crown
One of the most exciting new technologies being developed today is the manufacture of replacement body parts to be used to treat illnesses in humans. Today, this is accomplished in part through the use of bio-printing to 3-D print living cells into more complex structures. In the movie, The Fifth Element, there is a scene that takes this technology to the extreme and manufactures an entirely new human. The process used in the movie starts from a sample of one cell, preserved inside of a metal
