Complete Description
The Society of Plastics
Engineers proudly announces its new, updated
and expanded video series titled SPE Single
Screw Extrusion Video Program. The two videos,
shot on location, are enhanced with computer
animations that provide a look inside the extruder
and graphically show what is happening "behind
the scenes" in the extrusion process.
The SPE Handbook on Single Screw
Extrusion is included, and is designed to be
used in conjunction with the SPE Single Screw
Video Program for the training and education
of extrusion operators and production floor
personnel. It also serves as an excellent introductory
volume for new company hires, sales professionals
and others associated with single screw extrusion
operations. The material is presented in a straightforward,
easy to understand format and offers a practical
approach to understanding the subject matter.
In addition to providing supplemental detail,
the handbook contains thought-provoking review
questions at the end of each chapter.
