Glad to hear someone else recognized it!  I see these things everyday at
work (I'm a design engineer for a company called Plastic Process Equipment).
I've seen some incredibly complex mixing screws, a couple feet in diameter
and so large you need a truck to move them.  I even designed one that was
used to inject meat by-products into dog bone molds.  I once designed a
screw used by a company making solid rocket propellant.  The temperature had
to be kept to very strict tolerances to avoid any unfortunate mishaps.
