Narrative

Innovative research into precision-forming, micro-forming and manufacturing-system technology by Professor Yi Qin and his research group at the University of Strathclyde has resulted in EU-wide collaborative, integrated and multidisciplinary research. This in turn has produced a series of micro-manufacturing technologies and equipment, a significant number of which have been commercialised and/or used by industry. These technologies brought EU-wide impacts such as improvement of manufacturing capability and product quality and increase of manufacturing efficiency, market reach and jobs in EU industry.
