At the recent Weld Industry Days in Red Deer, Alberta, Dr. Gentry Wood, Production Engineering Manager at Apollo-Clad Laser Cladding, was honored with the Michael N. Vuchnic Award, presented by The Lincoln Electric Company of Canada Limited and administered by the Canadian Welding Bureau Association (CWBA).
This distinguished award recognizes individuals who have made the greatest contribution to advancing the science, technology, and application of arc (and now laser!) welding in Canada throughout their career. Receiving this national honor as an early-career professional is a remarkable achievement for Dr. Wood, and a testament to the industry-leading work taking place at Apollo.
Dr. Wood celebrated the occasion surrounded by family, adding this award to a growing list of national and international recognitions. Apollo is proud to be home to such world-class technical talent, and we extend congratulations to Gentry on this well-deserved recognition.
