<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 />
