The Metal Guys Talk Business

We're joined by Edwin Kroon of Lion Lasers to talk about laser and its applications in many ways that were unfamiliar to both Mike and Pete, and we'd wager a big percentage of the metal industry.

If you have any interest in lasers, then this should open your mind to a whole range of possible uses outside of just cutting holes and shapes in tubes and flat metal products.

Show Notes

This podcast has taken a while to release, but it is just as relevant today, as it was when we initially recorded it.

If you have any interest in lasers, then this should open your mind to a whole range of possible uses outside of just cutting holes and shapes in tubes and flat metal products.  

Edwin has a scientific background in biology, and on seeing a laser in action for the first time, became almost addicted to the possibilities of this technology.  

We talked about the following in this podcast:

* Laser applications in the aerospace sector
* How we can learn from nature and apply those structures to metals
* The potential benefits of laser in commercial applications
* Why the medical sector could be a huge market for the laser industry
* More typical applications and the benefits to industry
* The limitations of etching and engraving due to time constraints 
* Laser technology, and the fastest speeds that we can possibly achieve

If you work in the metal or engineering sector, then join the conversation. Let us know what topics you want to have featured on the show, or maybe YOU could join us as a guest.

What is The Metal Guys Talk Business?

Peter Comerford and Mike Bolton are The Metal Guys! They have worked in the metal sector for over 10 years, a huge global industry that produces more than a billion tonnes of material annually and affects all other industries and walks of life.

They now run a successful recruitment and marketing company servicing the metal and engineering sectors, making them ideally placed to provide impartial, independent insight into the industry, sitting outside the hierarchy of the various stages of the industry from raw material to finished product.

Under the moniker of The Metal Guys, the pair continue to gain insights from - and ask the difficult questions to - the decision makers and technical experts that you won't hear on any other podcast.

If you produce, work with or supply metal, then tune in and join the conversation.
