This course provides participants with an understanding of the theory of the extrusion process, combined with pilot plant exercises demonstrating how the principles are applied across different products and extruder types.

This applied extrusion course, which we have presented in Thailand since 2011, provides participants with an understanding of the theory of the extrusion process, combined with pilot plant exercises demonstrating how the principles are applied across different products and extruder types.

Introductory sessions cover relevant extrusion theory, followed by a discussion in which the product formulation and screw configuration/ process parameters are “designed”. Practice at a pilot plant and product making will take place, running the formulation with the designed screw profile.
