Many screw designs have been utilized over the years for the various extrusion processes and materials.... The best-known screws can be loosely separated into two categories-conventional screws and barrier screws. Conventional screws usually are single flighted designs with the flight lead(or flight pitch) equal to the screw's nominal diameter. This type is termed a square-pitched screw, and when no mixing devices are present, it usually is referred to as a metering screw.

CONT

The two basic approaches are used: the single metering or compression screw ...; and the barrier flight screw.

Unified and American National screw thread standards for screws, bolts, nuts, and other threaded parts consist of six series of threads and a selection of special threads that cover nonstandard combinations of diameter and pitch. In general, the unified screw threads are limited to three series : coarse(UNC), fine(UNF), and extrafine(UNEF). A 1/4-inch-diameter thread in the UNC series has 20 threads/in., while in the UNF it has 28... The extrafine thread series(UNEF and NEF) is used principally in aeronautical structures where an extremely shallow thread is needed for thin-walled material and where a maximum practicable number of threads is required for a given length.

A linear imperfection in a crystalline array of atoms.

CONT

Two basic types are recognized :(1) an edge dislocation corresponds to the row of mismatched atoms along the edge formed by an extra, partial plane of atoms within the body of a crystal;(2) a screw dislocation corresponds to the axis of a spiral structure in a crystal, characterized by a distortion that joins normally parallel planes together to form a continuous helical ramp(with a pitch of one interplanar distance) winding about the dislocaion. Most prevalent is the so-called mixed dislocation, which is any combination of an edge dislocation and a screw dislocation.

DEF

Défaut linéaire dans l'empilement atomique d'un cristal

CONT

Deux types principaux de dislocations sont définis : la dislocation «coin» et la dislocation «vis». La dislocation coin correspond à l'insertion d'un demi-plan supplémentaire d'atomes dans un cristal. Le bord intérieur de ce demi-plan définit la ligne de dislocation. Le déplacement des atomes consécutif à cette introduction est principalement orienté perpendiculairement à la ligne de dislocation. La dislocation vis correspond à une distorsion locale qui amène les plans atomiques à se raccorder en forme de rampe hélicoïdale s'enroulant autour d'un axe, la ligne de dislocation. Le pas de cette rampe est égal à une distance interatomique dans la direction de la ligne de dislocation. D'autres types de dislocations existent, résultats de l'association des deux types principaux définis ci-dessus. On distingue également les dislocations dissociées en partielles.

The unified thread form accompanied by the unified thread standards has in the past fulfilled the necessary requirements for interchangeability of threaded products between the United States, Great Britain, and Canada. This modified thread form represented two compromises between British Whitworth and United Stated National thread forms. The British accepted the 60° thread angle of the American thread, and the Americans accepted a rounded root and crest similar to the Whitworth form. The United States National unified form for external threads has a rounded root and may have either a rounded or flat crest. The unified thread contours provide advantages over both the earlier forms .... The unified thread is a general-purpose thread that is particularly suited for fasteners.

CONT

Unified and American National screw thread standards... consist of six series of threads and a selection of special threads that cover nonstandard combinations of diameter and pitch. In general, the unified screw threads are limited to three series; coarse(UNC), fine(UNF), and extrafine(UNEF).

La vis Maillefer consiste en deux canaux séparés, constitués par deux filets de vis de pas différents, se succédant le long de la vis avec une zone de chevauchement des deux filets. Le filet supplémentaire, dont le pas est tel qu'il correspond à un tour de moins que le filet principal sur la longueur de la zone de compression, balaie dans cette zone la largeur du canal, définissant deux canaux de largeur variable. En fait la position du filet supplémentaire correspond à celle que prendrait la frontière entre solide et liquide du processus de plastification par l'arrière du filet. On peut alors constater que le solide reste contenu dans le filet principal et que le liquide s'accumule dans le filet secondaire situé en arrière. Tout se passe comme si le filet supplémentaire était une frontière forcée entre le lit solide et la poche de matière fondue. Ainsi les deux états de la matière sont parfaitement séparés, ce qui permet d'éviter la pollution de la poche liquide par des fragments de solide.
