Hot extrusion is a hot working process, which means it is done above the material's recrystallization temperature to keep the material from work hardening and to make it easier to push the material through the die. Most hot extrusions are done on horizontal hydraulic presses that range from 230 to 11,000 metric tons (250 to 12,130 short tons ...
Plastics extrusion is a high-volume manufacturing process in which raw plastic is melted and formed into a continuous profile. Extrusion produces items such as pipe/tubing, weatherstripping , fencing, deck railings , window frames , plastic films and sheeting, thermoplastic coatings, and wire insulation.
A cell being extruded from an epithelium, with actin in red, microtubules in green, and DNA in blue. model of extrusion signaling Cell extrusion, discovered in 2001, [1] is a process conserved in epithelial from humans to sea sponge [2] to seamlessly remove unwanted or dying cells while maintaining the integrity of the epithelial barrier.

Extrusion cooking results in "chemical reactions that occur within the extruder barrel and at the die" like most other forms of cooking. [7] Extrusion enables mass production of some food, and will "denature antinutritional factors" [1] while destroying toxins or killing microorganisms.
During an extrusion process it is essential to consider the surface finish of exposed product surfaces. As a general rule, the narrower an exposed surface, the more uniform its finish becomes. Webs, flanges and abrupt changes in metal thickness may show up as marks on the opposite surface of an extrusion, particularly on thin sections. The ...
Depiction of the loop extrusion process where a loop extruder lands (top), extrudes a loop (middle), and unbinds (bottom). Loop extrusion is a major mechanism of Nuclear organization. It is a dynamic process in which structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein complexes progressively grow loops of DNA or chromatin.
Still, Massa respects the work of Wolverton and his team, despite its flaws. “Science continually evolves as new tools and technologies improve our understanding,” she explains.
Microextrusion is an outgrowth of microforming, a science that was in its infancy in the early 1990s. In 2002, Engel et al. expressed that up to that point, only a few research experiments involving micro-deep drawing and extruding processes had been attempted, citing limitations in shearing on billets and difficulties in tool manufacturing and handling.
