A rubber extrusion device includes a sensor which detects a deviation from a preset reference position of a rubber extrudate extruded from an extrusion port. Based on this detection data, a control unit provides control for correction of the deviation by adjusting a position of a die relative to a head along a leading end surface of the head or a rotational speed of a screw. A rubber material is mixed and kneaded while being extruded forward by a screw installed inside a cylinder. Resultant unvulcanized rubber is fed into an extrusion flow path and extruded from the extrusion port formed in the die.

A method of manufacturing a part, includes: obtaining recycled fibers; mixing the recycled fibers with a thermoplastic to obtain a fiber-reinforced intermediate; and manufacturing the part with the fiber-reinforced intermediate. The recycled fibers may come from a grinding operation of recycled composite parts. A feedstock may be manufactured using recycled fibers. The feedstock may then be used in subsequent manufacturing.
