The ReMake Glasgow project is developing a first-of-its-kind national ReMake hub within the NMIS Digital Factory. The hub will provide the skills and technologies needed to support ambitious manufacturers of all sizes to adopt circularity and extend the life of products and parts.

The aim is to achieve a 99% reduction in CO2 compared to manufacturing from new through processes such as remanufacturing, refurbishing and repairs.

With under 2% of products manufactured in the UK currently designed and reused in this way, the ReMake hub is set to advance sustainable manufacturing by supporting companies to move towards a circular economy.

Partners in this project are:
- Boeing UK
- British Airways
- SSE Renewables
- James Howden & Company Ltd
- ATS
- Renewable Parts Ltd

AFRC_CATP_1778_REMAKE TestBed_LMD PROCESS CONTROL DEVELOPMENT

Reimer, Andreas (Principal Investigator) Zeng, Quanren (Principal Investigator) Foster, Jim (Co-investigator) Devine, Ryan (Co-investigator) MacFadden, Conor (Co-investigator) Payne, Grant (Co-investigator)

The existing LMD Hybrid machine at AFRC has the capability of producing or remaking various components with low material usage for complex geometries. We hope to exploit both experimental and modelling based strategies in order to FURTHER develop the AFRC’s capability in using LMD, with a particular focus on manufacturing process monitor and control. 
The aim of this project is to develop both the control and understanding of the LMD-p process for the AFRC’s LMD Hybrid Machine by equipping it with different hardware/software integration. This would allow for improved functionality & reliability of the LMD process for future R&D projects. 
The funding source for this project is from the government-funded High Value Manufacturing Catapult (HVM Catapult), which is a group of 7 manufacturing research centres in the United Kingdom and run & funded by Innovate UK since 2011.
