This was an interesting and exciting project, working with Titanium (one of a handful of companies in NZ that have a procedure to do so). COVID Lockdown created challenges in sourcing materials, components and parts but the staff worked through Level 4 to met the deadlines.
Production of product is now exceeding expectations.
No incidents or injuries occured on the project.
