Industry Focus
I work primarily with pet food and aquafeed manufacturers that want to improve production performance, solve recurring process problems, and get more from existing equipment.
I also consider other food extrusion applications case by case.
Services
Production Line Optimization
Improving line capacity, process stability, and overall efficiency with a whole-line view. The focus is on identifying bottlenecks and improving performance before costly investments are considered.
Product and Process Development
Supporting recipe and process development so that products are not only technically possible, but practical to run in real production.
Technical Audits and Improvement Plans
Reviewing the production line, identifying constraints, and building a prioritized action plan for improvement.
Startup and Project Support
Support for production changes, line modifications, launches, and ramp-up situations where technical guidance is needed.
Training and Technical Support
Helping teams improve process understanding, troubleshooting capability, and practical operating consistency.
Why Work With Me
My approach combines technical understanding, practical extrusion expertise, broad manufacturing experience, and a highly committed, hands-on approach to solving production challenges.
- Strong technical foundation supported by real factory experience
- Understanding of the whole production line, not only the extruder
- Practical problem solving in demanding production environments
- Experience from production, development, quality, and operational leadership
- Focus on implementable improvements, not just analysis
- I look first at what can be improved with the current line before recommending costly investments
Typical Outcomes
The work is always situation-specific, but typical goals include:
- Higher hourly capacity
- Improved process stability
- Fewer recurring disturbances and stops
- Better product quality and consistency
- Reduced waste and improved production yield
- Clearer bottleneck identification across the full production line
