C.F. Scheer & Cie GmbH & Co. KG was a German manufacturer that became widely recognized for its pelletizing and granulation systems. From strand pelletizers to underwater designs, Scheer machines were known for precision cutting, consistent pellet quality, and the ability to handle a broad range of polymers. Their equipment found its way into plastics plants across the world, helping processors improve throughput and product uniformity.
Over the years, Scheer built a reputation as a true specialist in pelletizing technology. Their engineering focus on durability and accuracy set standards that influenced how modern extrusion and compounding lines were designed. Many processors relied on Scheer’s equipment to push production forward, and the company became a trusted name wherever high-volume polymer processing was required.
In 2008, financial difficulties led C.F. Scheer into insolvency, and Reduction Engineering acquired its granulation and pelletizing business. That business later became part of the MAAG Group, where the Scheer name still lives on as a product line. While the original company no longer operates independently, its legacy continues through the equipment still in use today and through the ongoing development of pelletizing systems built on Scheer’s foundation.
