BUSATIS
Rear mower and front mower from BUSATIS
In 1994, ESM took over the double-blade cutting technology division from the BUSATIS works, which were located in Hückeswagen at the time. Founded in 1888, BUSATIS was traditionally active in the development of knives and cutting components for rear mowers and front mowers for agriculture and forestry. The history of the company goes back to the Austrian brothers Busatis, who managed the company after its foundation in Purgstall and subsequently expanded it.
BUSATIS has followed and helped shape the development of cutting technology from the very beginning. This takeover represented an important step in the development of ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik. BUSATIS technology is ideally suited for the widely used rear mower as well as for installation as a front mower. The result was an ideal addition to the existing ESM product programme. The takeover has helped ESM to become the European market leader in oscillating mower technology and the global leader in double-blade technology.
Optimisation of BUSATIS technology by ESM
The takeover of the double-blade cutting technology division by ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik has meant that the expertise and sophisticated technology of BUSATIS has been incorporated into the rear mowers and front mowers as well as the entire oscillating mower technology of ESM. The development of the ESM company has benefited from the acquisition of this BUSATIS division. In line with the company philosophy of ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik, the double-blade cutting technology of BUSATIS was continuously developed and improved after the takeover. The Busatis company still exists today and is still successfully active in the development of mowing technology.
Expansion of BUSATIS application areas under the ESM brand
Like Busatis, ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik specialises in developing high-quality cutting units for a wide range of different applications. Rear-mounted mowers are just as easy to use as front-mounted mowers or side-mounted cutter bars. Since its foundation, ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik has been designing cutter bars and cutterbars and has registered numerous patents and industrial property rights in this regard.
Since the company was founded, its philosophy has been to contribute to the improvement of mowing technology through innovation. The sales organisation at ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik is clearly focused on supplying industrial and wholesale partners.
Accordingly, the mowers are now used in numerous companies and for a wide variety of applications.
