In this space we sit down for a while and chat with experts from pioneering companies in the sector about their projects, progress, challenges and concerns. They also share with us some curiosities not only on a professional level, but also on a personal level that allows us to get to know them a little better. This month we talk to Antton Meléndez, Jury Member of the Advanced Manufacturing Awards, Expert in Materials, Process Simulation and Artificial Vision and Intelligence of the Spanish Engineering Institute, who will tell us how the steel sector has evolved in our country, how we must face the new challenges that arise or if the new metal production techniques, such as additive manufacturing, have arrived to displace other more traditional ones, among many other things!
