Daltons Wadkin strengthens fiber laser team

Nottingham-based Daltons Wadkin has strengthened its team with the appointment of Adrian Wright as fiber laser sales manager, as it grows its presence in the UK and Ireland’s sheet metal market.

With over 30 years of technical sales experience in the fiber laser and sheet metal industry, Adrian will lead the company’s exclusive partnership with Kimla, driving the expansion of fiber laser installations. 

Adrian said: “I can’t wait to join the team at Dalton Wadkin, and especially the fantastic opportunity to show customers and companies alike the Kimla range of products, including the incredible Kimla Fiber Lasers machines.

“Kimla and Dalton Wadkin have built up a tremendously close working relationship over the past 15 years, and I intend to fully utilise and embrace introducing these machines to customers. 

“Key to our success will be showcasing our machines to their fullest potential via live demonstrations in either Nottingham or Poland. 

“Kimla are not just machine builders but are true innovators invested in developing the fiber laser machine from the ground up.  

“Designing and manufacturing their own linear motors, coupled with their unique machine design, are just two examples of what makes a Kimla Fiber machine cut materials faster with unrivalled part quality.”

His appointment follows Daltons Wadkin’s continued investment in CNC and fiber laser solutions, including its recent showcase at the 2024 Mach Exhibition and the unveiling of the Kimla five-axis ‘mini-mill’ for the UK market.

Alex Dalton, managing director, added: “We’re excited to welcome Adrian to lead our fiber laser division. 

“His deep expertise in the sheet metal arena and fiber laser sector is exactly what we need to propel our growth. 

“Kimla’s fiber laser technology is truly cutting-edge, supported by our robust network of trained engineers across the UK and Ireland. 

“Adrian’s appointment is the final piece, allowing us to bring these components together and advance confidently in the market with a dedicated expert.”
