Abstract

High Specific Mechanical Energy extruder screw assemblies () and complete extruders () are provided, which include wide-flight intermediate screw sections () having axial flight widths greater than the flight widths of the inlet and outlet screw sections () on opposite sides of the intermediate sections (). The intermediate sections () provide increased friction and shear serving to enhance the SMEs imparted to comestible food materials during processing thereof.
