CPM, the world’s leading equipment provider for particle size reduction and pellet agglomeration, has acquired Century Extrusion, from Century, Inc., Traverse City, Michigan. The acquisition adds Century Extrusion’s industry leading extrusion equipment and parts to the CPM product line.

“This expansion of our product line will help our process equipment customers maximize their profitability,” said Ted Waitman, CPM president. “We are committed to helping our customers achieve the lowest possible operating costs through the equipment, parts and services we offer.”
