Shaping the future of manufacturing through research into the application of digital technologies to materials processing

Materials Processing Development

Research is focussed on understanding the correlation between process inputs and outputs, aided by the use of in-situ process monitoring sensors.

Materials Processing Modeling

Research goes beyond state-of-the-art prediction tools to incorporate models of product performance to microstructure level.

Materials Processing Feedback & Control

Incorporates real-time process data, historical performance and predictive modeling to generate machine-learning based process control tools for complex advanced manufacturing processes.
