An accomplished engineer whose journey began in aerospace — contributing to Airbus projects and pioneering novel welding solutions. An early subject-matter expert in metal 3D printing with titanium feedstock, Steven went on to serve as Director of Engineering at one of Professor Donald Sadoway's renowned ventures.
As former customers ourselves, we witnessed personalized care erode across the inertization and vacuum-tool industry — OEMs losing sight of their customers' aspirations. Lubbe emerged to rekindle that personalized touch, redefining the standard of service with a genuine, vested interest in your success.
