Macro Engineering & Technology Inc. has developed and patented a new process to produce trash bags using post-consumer materials. With conventional methods for producing bags with high amounts of ...

Aluminum is particularly well suited to the extrusion process due to its excellent plasticity at extrusion temperature. Only a minor degree of work-hardening takes place at this temperature and ...

On the right, a vacuum-assisted extrusion is leveraged in large-scale additive manufacturing to reduce porosity in printed parts. The inset image, on the left, is a close-up of the vacuum-assisted ...

High-moisture extrusion is widely used for producing fibrous, meat-like structures from plant protein ingredients at industrial scale. By combining thermomechanical treatment with controlled cooling, ...

We have a fascination with gloss. Think of shining shoes, polishing apples for the teacher, don’t touch my car, squeaky-clean and more. Somehow, shiny noses are the other way around, which is why we ...

Using a novel Solid Phase Processing approach, a research team eliminated several steps that are required during conventional extrusion processing of aluminum alloy powders, while also achieving a ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a multimaterial extrusion 3D printing platform designed to fabricate complete electric machines in a single manufacturing step.

The hot melt extrusion (HME) process can be employed in the production of a wide range of pharmaceutical dosage forms, including capsules, tablets, lozenges and implants. HME is suitable for both ...

Extrusion technology has emerged as a versatile method in food processing, integrating mixing, heating, shearing, and shaping into a single, continuous process. This method not only facilitates the ...

Additive free, multimaterial 3D printing is achieved for milk-based products without temperature control. Researchers from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) developed a method ...
