Abstract

An extrusion device comprises a die provided with disconnected feed passageways and interconnected grid-shaped extrusion slots and a die mask which covers the outer peripheral portion of the die on the extrudable material outlet side through a pooling zone. The width of the uncovered grid shaped extrusion slots along the die mask is made larger on the extrudable material outlet side compared with that on the extrudable material inlet side. The extrudable material is supplied from the covered extrusion slots into the uncovered extrusion slots through the pooling zone.
