The KraussMaffei Group works with universities and research institutes in a great diversity of research and development projects. The company bundles these activities in the PRIMUS Network for Innovation. PRIMUS stands for Process Integrated Machinery for Unique Solutions. In a wider sense, the name also stands for our claim to leadership in innovation and new solutions. PRIMUS has set itself the goal of developing sustainable production solutions for the most important technology trends in engineering plastics processing machinery: energy consumption, renewable raw materials, packaging, intelligent surfaces and reducing unit manufacturing costs.

Our comprehensive know-how and a portfolio that spans the key machine technologies of injection moulding, extrusion and reaction processing, give KraussMaffei unique strengths. Unlike machinery suppliers limited by their specialization in single technologies, KraussMaffei with its broad portfolio is in a position to give customers neutral advice and to supply optimal solutions. In addition, our ability to integrate different process technologies in one solution opens up strong potential for increased productivity.
