The work is devoted to modeling the dependence of the temperature of the extrusion process in the melting zone on the composition of the feedstock and the rotational speed of the screw shaft. The quality of the finished product can not be determined in real time, but it depends on the values ​​of the technological parameters of the production process. Therefore, the quality of products can be controlled through the control of technological parameters. Therefore, the problem of determining the temperature dependence is an important problem. The model is obtained on the basis of experimental data from a number of alternative models. As parameters, the rotational speed of the screw shaft was used. As a criterion for the quality of the model, the sum of the theoretical model errors from the experimental data is used. As the speed of the screw shaft increases, the temperature of the extrusion process increases with a gradually decreasing rate. The resulting model of the extrusion process can be used in automatic extrusion control systems to control the quality of finished products.
