<strong>Extruders</strong> And Extrusion<br />

<strong>Rubber</strong> extruders have a varied field of application.<br />

So, when you come across a rubber profile, strip,<br />

hose, cable, wire, cord coating, tire tread, v-belt,<br />

tube, or blank remember that they are only a few<br />

handful of products manufactured using extrusion<br />

process.<br />

<strong>Rubber</strong> industry only had Hot Feed <strong>Extruders</strong> until<br />

1950’s. Then came the Cold Feed <strong>Extruders</strong> and<br />

other variations as we see them today.<br />

Life today is mostly spent trying to catch up with<br />

latest developments. However, in the process the<br />

basics and fundamentals are sometimes overlooked.<br />

In this issue, we bring to you a ‘collector’s edition’<br />

on <strong>Extruders</strong> and Extrusion incorporating the<br />

fundamentals, that I hope will find space in your<br />

digital library.<br />

My sincere thanks to Dr. S. N. Chakravarty, President<br />

of Elastomer Technology Development Society, for<br />

his inputs with the material for this edition.<br />

As always, I welcome your feedback on<br />

<strong>Extruders</strong> and the<br />

process of Extrusion<br />

applications in the<br />
