Operation<br />
The wet mixture is separately prepared,<br />
typically using a kneader or a pug mixer<br />
(available from <strong>LCI</strong>), and metered into<br />
the feed hopper. Twin screws transport<br />
the wet material to the extrusion zone<br />
where it is wiped through perforated<br />
screens by tapered extrusion blades<br />
to produce well formed cylindrical<br />
extrudates of a controlled diameter.<br />
Extrudates break off (by their own<br />
weight) and are collected for the next<br />
processing step.<br />
