Counter-rotating
twin-screw extruder

The Theysohn XTS series represents the latest development for counter-rotating twin-screw extruders and has been specially designed for use in flexible high-performance extrusion lines. The highest melt quality at the highest output is achieved with proven and reliable process units from our own production in Salzgitter (Germany). Modular barrels and screws allow 24D, 26D, 32D and 36D long plasticising units depending on requirements and customer preferences.

TSKaskade
Unity

Saving raw materials with the new extrusion technologies for secondary materials and high filler contents – Technology that inspires! The Theysohn TSKaskade UNITY series represents THE development of the combination of co- and counter-rotating extruder types. The TSKaskade UNITY series was designed especially for the need for flexible high-performance extrusion systems. Highest product quality and flexibility are achieved with proven and reliable modular process units. By the combination of both extrusion technologies each of the single systems can exploit it‘s original advantages, thus offering a never before achieved added value.

Extruder Components

For many decades the name THEYSOHN has stood for high-performance products for plastics and rubber processing. THEYSOHN products are shipped from the Salzgitter factory to many countries around the world. As essential components, they are used in machines of many renowned manufacturers and processors.
Developments were geared towards wear-protected plasticising units at an early stage. Optimum solutions are offered with wear-protected designs of barrels, housings and screws. The production of well over forty thousand screws and barrels in a wide variety of sizes and designs has allowed extensive development and production know-how to mature.

Chronicle Part 4 – A New Era of Independence, Innovation & Global Presence

Chronicle Part 4 – A New Era of Independence, Innovation & Global Presence

From 2000 to 2025, Theysohn entered a new chapter shaped by strategic ownership changes, international growth, and technological realignment.

In 2003, Rudolf Zahradnik, Siegfried Topf, and Sven Wolf acquired the Austrian companies of the Theysohn Group via an asset deal, marking the beginning of a new independent era. Global expansion followed quickly: in 2004, Theysohn India and Theysohn Russia were founded, and by 2007, a joint venture in China had been launched.

Over the next decade, ownership evolved—from the takeover by High Tech Industries AG in 2008 to the management buyout in 2014 by MUT Holding (Michael Döring, Uwe Langanke, and Torsten Grosser), who led the company into a more focused and agile future.

Production and engineering were restructured: in 2016, assembly was consolidated in Germany, while technology, development, and sales of counter-rotating extruders moved to Stockerau, Austria. In 2017, a new facility was built in Pune, India, boosting local service and manufacturing capabilities.

In 2019, the company underwent a strategic realignment, unifying operations under Theysohn Extrusionstechnik GmbH Germany. And as we look to 2025, we celebrate not only our technological advances—such as TSK-Kaskade and counter-rotating extruders for North America—but also the people behind the brand.

This anniversary is a moment to say thank you — to our employees, partners, and customers. Together, we’ve made Theysohn a forward-thinking company built on tradition, innovation, and heart.
