A buildup of compacted or dry material in the barrel and\/or die increases operating temperature, which creates steam and builds pressure with no escape.<\/p>\n<p>Pressure builds suddenly and where the pressurized region occurs is unpredictable. Volatiles in your raw material can result in an explosive event under the same heat conditions.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<div class=\"shortcode-wrapper shortcode-video fitVids clearfix\"><span>Failed to load media.
