Today we will learn about extrusion process working, types, application, advantages and disadvantages of epdm extruder. Extrusion is a metal forming process in which metal or work piece is forced to flow through a die to reduce its cross section or convert it into desire shape. This process is extensively used in pipes and steel rods manufacturing. The force used to extrude the work piece is compressive in nature. This process is similar to drawing process except drawing process uses tensile stress to extend the metal work piece. The compressive force allows large deformation compare to drawing in single pass. The most common material extruded are plastic and aluminum.

Advantages:
High extrusion ratio (It is the ratio of billet cross section area to extruded part cross section area).
It can easily create complex cross section.
This working can be done with both brittle and ductile materials.
High mechanical properties can achieved by cold extrusion.

Disadvantages:
High initial or setup cost.
High compressive force required.
