Extruder

1. An extruder comprising

a casing,

at least one bore which is formed in the casing and has a diameter Da,

at least one screw which is arranged in each bore in a rotatably drivable manner, which is provided with single-threaded screw elements with an external diameter Da, and which has a screw tip arranged at a downstream end, in relation to a direction of flow, said screw tip in turn being provided with a screw stem having a stem diameter Di,

a nozzle plate which is arranged downstream of and adjacent to the screw tip so as to close the at least one bore, which is provided with a plurality of nozzle holes, and which is formed on an annular surface of the nozzle plate,

wherein the screw tip is double-threaded with two screw flights which taper in the direction of flow down to the stem diameter Di, wherein the last half screw flight of each screw flight increases in each case in the direction of flow until the external diameter Da is reached,

wherein a shearing tool is arranged at the screw tip directly in front of the nozzle plate,

wherein the shearing tool has two arms which are in each case arranged superimposed with the downstream end of the respective screw flight of the screw tip and are attached to a hub, wherein to a diameter Dmin of the hub applies: Dmin<Di, and

wherein a shearing gap with a gap width s is formed between said shearing tool and the nozzle plate, wherein to the gap width s applies: 1.0≦s≦3.0 mm.

2. An extruder of claim 1 ,

wherein at least one of the arms has a surface conveying material towards the hub.

3. An extruder of claim 1 ,

wherein at least one of the arms has a surface leading towards the shearing gap.

4. An extruder of claim 1 ,

wherein the nozzle holes are arranged on the annular surface having an internal diameter Dmin and an external diameter Da.
