About esde Maschinentechnik
esde Maschinentechnik GmbH is a manufacturer of extruders and extrusion lines for flat film and plastic sheets based in Bad Oeynhausen. The company designs and builds single-screw extruders with output rates of 1 to 1,300 kg/h, high-speed extruders, slot dies (coat-hanger dies), polishing roll stands, winding systems as well as complete lines for flat film, sheets, inline thermoforming, regrind processing and laboratory extrusion. Thermoplastics such as PP, PS, PE, PET, PC, ABS, PA, PMMA, TPU, TPE, EVOH and PEEK are processed in the form of granulate or regrind. In addition to production lines for film manufacturers and the packaging industry, esde builds laboratory systems for research institutes, universities, medical technology, pharmaceuticals and chemical corporations. All lines are designed and built at the Bad Oeynhausen site; services include remote maintenance, pilot plant trials and the rental of laboratory extruders.
