1964 I moved to the Paul Leistritz engineering works in Nu-
remberg and began setting up a new product field called ex-
trusion technology – starting from scratch with the
development, production and sales of single and twin-screw
extruders.
So you learned compounding technology at Leistritz –
a technology with which you have been associated
for almost all of your life.
TENNER:
When I joined Leistritz, I started learning all about
“plastics and plastic processing” – a new and difficult di-
mension for me and at the same time I started learning about
masterbatch. We discovered masterbatch when we were loo-
king for suitable uses for the twin-screw extruder developed
and manufactured at Leistritz. We needed machines that
could enable a high dispersion quality and exceptional mi-
xing quality to produce high-quality masterbatches. Only
counter-rotating twin-screw extruders were available at that
