What EEP Plömacher does

EEP Plömacher GmbH is a family-owned German industrial services company founded in 1979 and headquartered in Marienheide, with a second operational site (Werk Nord) in Salzhausen-Oelstorf. The company specializes in precision deburring of plastic and rubber molded parts for B2B customers, employing over 40 staff and operating 34 highly specialized machine types. It is registered as a private limited company (GmbH) under HRB 38593 in Cologne, with VAT ID DE 122545538, and is led by founder and managing director Egon Plömacher.

The company's core technology is precision deburring across multiple process modalities: Strahlentgratung (cryogenic beam deburring at temperatures down to -170°C using centrifugal force), Trommelentgratung (cryogenic drum deburring optimized for large batches and external burrs), Fliehkraft-Gleitschleiftechnologie / Trowalizing (centrifugal barrel, vibratory, and drum mass finishing), and rubber/elastomer deburring using nitrogen with kinetic energy. Supporting services include washing, drying, tempering, final inspection, assembly, and packaging, providing a complete pre- and post-processing platform. The company is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and markets a "0-Fehler Sortierung" zero-defect sorting capability.

EEP Plömacher generates revenue primarily through professional services (deburring and secondary processing of customer-supplied parts), supplemented by hardware sales of abrasive blasting media (Strahlmittel, minimum order 25 kg) and a CITRA-Norm line of industrial cleaners (universal cleaner, descaler, commercial cleaner). Pricing is opaque and quote-based. The go-to-market is sales-led direct B2B, with customer contact via phone, email, and website forms. Served verticals include automotive, medical technology, electrical/electronics, construction, and the sealing industry. Geographic footprint is limited to Germany (DACH-adjacent), with no subsidiaries, acquisitions, external funding, or partnerships disclosed in the source material.

Products and services

• Plastic Deburring (Kunststoffentgratung) Precision deburring of plastic molded parts including thermoplastics, thermosets (Duroplaste), and elastomers, using specialized machines for varied geometries. Delivered as a B2B contract service to industrial manufacturers across automotive, medical technology, electrical, construction, and sealing industries.
• Rubber / Elastomer Deburring (Gummientgratung) Deburring of rubber parts and elastomers using nitrogen combined with kinetic energy, removing burrs efficiently without damaging the elastomer base material. Designed for sealing-industry manufacturers and other rubber-component producers.
• Cryogenic Deburring (Tiefkalt-Entgratung) Highly economical cryogenic deburring solutions for large and small parts including 2-component molded parts. Provided to industrial customers in automotive, medical technology, electrical, construction, and sealing industries.
• Cryogenic Beam Deburring (Strahlentgratung) Cryogenic deburring where blasting media is shot at temperatures down to -170°C onto cooled molded parts via a centrifugal wheel. Supports fill volumes of 0.1l–90l and media sizes 0.5mm–3mm in plastic or CO2, enabling shorter processing times, higher quality, and a wider range of moldable parts.
• Cryogenic Drum Deburring (Trommelentgratung) Cryogenic drum deburring, a simple, proven, and cost-effective method particularly suited to large quantities and external burr removal. Fill volume 1l–60l, with aggressiveness regulated via 'Beischlag' additive.
