To be held: 28 February, 2pm AEDT

This webinar will showcase how channel letter bending machines can increase your business’s profitability by significantly reducing fabrication lead times. Learn how your staff can be manufacturing up to 800mm signs with just two days of training – years of fabrication experience not required. An overview of laser welding will also be covered in this not-to-be-missed webinar.

Peter Fitzpatrick of Lettertech Australia will provide the background on the technology, it’s capabilities and the training required. Mick Harrold of Visual Exposure, will outline his experience in channel letter bending and how the technology has improved his business.

Vernon Kingman of Kingman Strategies will moderate the webinar.

Peter Fitzpatrick has been in the sign industry for 46 years. He started with a brush in his hand and while he welcomed the challenge of adapting to all of the technology changes along the way, it was getting involved in channel bending a couple of years ago that renewed Peter’s enthusiasm for the industry. His business went from being able to fabricate one or two letter sets per week to one or two letter sets per day. Peter’s family business now operates Lettertech Australia which is involved in selling channel letter bending machines and laser welders, their consumables and associated training courses.

Mick Harrold studied electronic engineering and has more than 18 years as Managing Director of one of Melbourne’s prominent sign companies, Visual Exposure. Mick enjoys the challenge of exploring new technologies and is keen to see manufacturing brought back to Australia. Mick is also the current ASGA President.

Vernon Kingman is a brush trained sign writer and has been in the signage industry for over 50 years. His company Kingman Visual won over 40 national awards and is regarded as one of the best sign companies in Australia. Kingman Visual was sold in 2020 and Vernon now coaches businesses on meeting and improving their position in the market and achieving their business and personal goals.
