There is a wide range of techniques that can be used to produce products out of plastic.

Having help to hand fast when problems occur ensures continuity in your production processes.

The training I provide covers aspects such as material properties, process flows and how moulds work.

I have been working in injection moulding since 1993. My first 11 years in the industry were spent in Marinha Grande, Portugal, where I was born. I came to the Netherlands in 2004, when a major manufacturer of plastic semi-end products for the automotive industry here invited me to input my expertise in injection moulding to strengthen their production process. My multilingualism often comes in handy in my work. I speak fluent English, Dutch and Portuguese and have a good working knowledge of Spanish and French.

I am trained in areas such as mould making, supervising projects involving the use of moulds and troubleshooting in the injection moulding process. I have worked as a trial injection moulding operator, process engineer and toolmaker in the automotive, packaging, electronics, medical and consumer goods sectors, where I gained experience in a wide range of injection moulding machines and techniques.

Now I am putting my knowledge and experience to good use in my own business, tapping into an extensive network of toolmakers, manufacturers and suppliers of hot runners and moulds as and when necessary.

If there is anything I can do for you, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
