This article is part of WikiProject Metalworking, an attempt to cleanup, categorize and expand Wikipedia articles related to metalworking. If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page or visit the project page, where a list of open tasks is maintained.

This article should have one of those boxes that states "needs to be cleaned up."

Yes. Perhaps we can add subsections, most notably one for "Extrusion Cooking." --MYTom 22:58:09, 2005-09-02 (UTC)

[edit] the big addition...

The big addition to this article from a few months ago sure seems like a text dump from some book or another. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 02:33, 4 September 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Organization

I think that plastics extrusion should be merged into this article. And it should either be referred to as "Polymer Extrusion" or "Plastic Extrusion", but not "Plastics Extrusion". --PrecisionEx 17:41, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

I just added a few links to sites that i consider to be relevant, content rich, and generally good sources of information. These sites being; Society of Plastics Engineers, eFunda - Extrusion, and Strictly-extrusion. --AnTony 05:05, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
I can't even view Strictly-Extrusion without JavaScript, and WP isn't a directory to business associations like Society of Plastics Engineers, so removed them. Femto 15:52, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
