Acerca de Matthew

I specialize in extrusion process engineering and advanced polymer film systems, with nearly 30 years of experience spanning OEM machinery design, R&D development, and industrial-scale production environments.


My core expertise lies in:


- Multilayer blown film and cast film systems

- Screw design and melt flow optimization

- Process stabilization and defect elimination

- OEM line start-up and commissioning

- R&D development of advanced polymer structures


Throughout my career, I have worked across OEM environments and industrial production systems, including long-term engagement with leading machinery manufacturers and global extrusion projects. This has given me a practical understanding of both machine design and real-world production constraints.


I focus on bridging the gap between machine capability and stable industrial output, particularly in complex multilayer systems where process instability, interface behavior, or material interaction limits performance.


In addition to engineering execution, I support organizations in:


- solving persistent process instability issues

- improving product quality consistency

- optimizing multilayer structures

- supporting OEM start-ups and troubleshooting globally


I am currently open to selective engagements in:


- OEM technology development roles

- senior process engineering or R&D positions

- consulting assignments in extrusion system optimization and commissioning


My focus is always on practical, measurable improvement in extrusion performance and production reliability.

  • Diemax Design Technologies
    Principal Consultant & W&H Global Commissioning Specialist
    febrero de 2017 - Hoy (9 años y 4 meses)
    Lisbon, Portugal
    Mandate: Senior process engineering authority for complex extrusion system challenges. From 2021, retained exclusively by Windmöller & Hölscher as the specialist deployed globally when process failures on high-investment lines exceed the capacity of in-house engineering teams.
    • ▪ Deployed across Europe, Asia, and the Americas to commission, start up, and optimise W&H cast and blown film lines — reducing critical downtime and accelerating customer revenue readiness on multi million-euro assets.
    • ▪ Resolved complex process failures on production systems where in-house engineering had exhausted options; consistently delivered root-cause diagnosis and corrective action within compressed timeframes.
    • ▪ Delivered technical authority across process design, multilayer film structure development, material selection, and full-line troubleshooting on systems ranging from 3- to 11-layer configurations.
    • ▪ Advised OEM and converter clients on barrier, stretch, medical, and specialty film structure development — translating application requirements into process parameters and commercial outcomes.
    • ▪ Built field-team capability through structured training and knowledge transfer during and post commissioning, reducing operator dependency on external support and shortening future startup cycles.
