Extruder Development  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

KMD Plastifizierungstechnik GmbH is a developer and manufacturer of high-quality extruders for plastics processing and laboratory systems for fiber spinning.

KMD has a strong research and development team with extensive experience and know-how in a variety of areas including mechanical engineering, fluid mechanics, fine chemicals, plastics technology, synthetic fibers, nonwovens technology, textiles, automation and others. In addition to our internal activities, we are also involved in a large number of joint R&D projects with universities in Europe, the USA and Asia in these areas. Thanks to this interdisciplinary, mutually complementary cooperation, we have been able to significantly increase the efficiency and success of our own projects. KMD's technologies and products are based on this, and this is what everything at KMD revolves around.

Our R&D activities focus on technologies for the plasticization of plastics. Accordingly, the portfolio of products we develop and manufacture ranges from extruders for plasticizing plastics and manufacturing new materials to systems for producing microfibres.

Welcome to LuMa-Tec Handling SystemsLuMa-Tec has a global presence and is at home in Bavaria. From Hofheim, LuMa-Tec develops and produces extrusion lines and the respective downstream models, as well as special machines for plastics processing for national and international customers and markets.

Our main field of activity isthe production of extrusion machines, e.g. various extruders, cutters, coolingbaths, haul-offs, thermal ovens, spare parts, etc., and handling systems,partly for pipes up to 250 mm, sometimes larger on request.


Our highly automated production lines are used in production facilities all over the world. Our aim is to make extrusion processes safer. This includes, for example, very precise control of temperatures and other parameters in the production process. In future, we will achieve this through a very high degree of automation in process control in our newly developed LuMa-Tec production lines.
