Extruder assembly for composite materials

摘要

An extruder assembly for composite materials, the extruder assembly having a barrrel with feed and compression sections, a rotatable screw adapted to convey a composite material through the barrel, at least one fiber alignment means, and a die. The screw diameter in the feed section is approximately twice the screw diameter in the compression section, and the flight spacing in the feed section is approximately twice the flight spacing in the compression section.
