I have been involved in the sheet metal industry since 1980.
Started life as a sheet metal worker, and worked all facets of this industry.
Progressed into electrical, electronic and hydraulics.
I was involved in installing and fixing metal working machinery for over 15 years which included guillotines, turret punches, Lasers and plasmas, Press brakes and pan folders, and others.
I obviously seen many factories, and seen different ways of doing things.
These days I manufacture plasma and laser cutting machines, which are unique in that we cut the metal in a vertical plane not horizontal.
