The mass to be extruded is forced into an extrusion duct (die) (1) so as to make it emerge in the extruded state from the outlet end (3) of the duct in a direction (2) generally-axial of the duct itself. An annular flow of fluid is generated around the outlet end (3) of the extrusion duct (1), oriented in an axial direction relative to the extrusion duct (1), and surrounds the extruded mass, preventing it from bending accidentally. The extruded mass is divided into pieces by a cutting operation (9) carried out within (7) the zone in which the annular flow of fluid acts. |
