This week we say goodbye to Nigel Parsons from the Sharing in Growth team, and what an incredible journey it's been. Nigel has been instrumental in our transformation from a prototyping-focused AM business to the mature advanced manufacturing operation we are today, delivering high-quality finished parts to our customers. His expertise has been invaluable in implementing the right structure, discipline, and focus across our organisation. Through his guidance, we've strengthened our culture, developed our people, and refined our processes in ways that will benefit us for years to come. Sometimes it takes just a moment of reflection to truly appreciate the profound impact one person can have on a business. Nigel's contributions have been immeasurable (apart from all the KPI’s and charters he leaves behind), and his influence will continue long after his departure. Nigel, we hope we weren't the final challenge that sent you running to retirement! 😄 We wish you all the very best as you embark on this exciting new chapter. And because we couldn't resist jumping on the latest LinkedIn trend, we've created two AI avatars: "Nigel the Sharing in Growth Coach" and "Nigel in Retirement." For those who know him personally – how close did we get? Thank you for everything, Nigel. Enjoy your retirement! 🌟 #Retirement #ThankYou #TeamAppreciation #Leadership #Manufacturing David Jones

We thought we were only installing CO₂ monitors... For the last 8 months, we’ve been quietly collecting an absolute goldmine of energy and environmental data across our production floor, thanks to Devtank Ltd monitors, the Made Smarter Innovation - Smart Manufacturing Data Hub programme, and to WMG, University of Warwick. What started as a carbon-tracking exercise became something much bigger: 📈 Sound. 📉 Vibration. 💨 Air quality. 🌡️ Temperature. 💡 Light levels. 💧 Humidity. Every data point is a clue revealing hidden inefficiencies, operational blind spots, and big opportunities. What’s next? This September, we’re bringing in our first energy intern in partnership with WMG. Their mission: 🧠 Deep dive into the data. 🛠️ Build an energy reduction roadmap. 💸 Cut carbon AND costs. Sustainability isn't a compromise, or "green-washing". It's being smart, efficient, and future ready. The images below show the impact of just 30 days of series production on our M400-4 in IN718. Imagine what’s possible when we act on the data behind it. #Manufacturing #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #MadeSmarter #DataDriven #NetZero #Innovation #GreenManufacturing #IndustryTransformation

💥 300% Capacity Uplift. £121k Saved (and counting). RFT through the roof! We recently re-engineered a legacy hand-finished AM part as the customer needed to ramp up production. The part in question hadn't been engineered with production in mind, so we worked collaboratively to change the process. That meant: ✅ Swapping 6 hours of manual finishing per part for just 40 minutes of machining. ✅ Increasing RFT from 55% to 95%. ✅ Unlocking 300% capacity increase with lights-out automation. ✅ Saving over £121,000 per year (based on current volumes). This wasn’t just about machines. It was about people, process, and precision: 💰Aligning our team and CAPEX investment to deliver at pace ⏫Designing custom jigs and fixtures to triple overnight output 🛠️Building future-proof capabilities for new product development From bottleneck to business enabler - that’s how we scale additive for production. #AdditiveManufacturing #CNC #OperationalExcellence #AMtoProduction #NetZeroManufacturing #Innovation #AdvancedManufacturing #LightsOutManufacturing

After making us wait we finally welcomed our little girl Erin Orla James 💕 for now I’ll be on maternity leave soaking in newborn life (and a lack of sleep…) but thank you to my colleagues at 3T Additive Manufacturing Ltd for the beautiful flowers and I can’t wait to see you all soon
