Zane Hengsperger, founder and CEO of Nox Metals is focused on fixing one of manufacturing’s most overlooked bottlenecks; getting raw material fast, reliably, and without friction.
In this episode of Just Gonna Send It, Jim and Zane walk through his path from growing up around a machine shop to a brief run in tech, and ultimately back into manufacturing to build something of his own. They get into why software alone is not enough, how applying technology to simple processes creates real leverage, and what it actually takes to stand up a physical operation from scratch. From buying and rigging a massive saw to running the shop themselves after hours, it is a conversation about moving fast, learning by doing, and building where it matters.
