Modern Manufacturing Methods for construction in Infrastructure Deployment

This event explores how modern manufacturing methods are transforming the delivery of infrastructure and construction projects. Increasing pressure on cost, speed, quality, sustainability, and skills is driving a shift away from purely traditional construction approaches toward manufacturing-led models based on standardisation, modularity, and integrated supply chains.

Achieving reliable thickness measurement in a production environment

Target materials and production processes influence how product thickness is measured. Methods may involve setting roller gaps, adjusting extrusion dies, or monitoring poured and cured materials such as glass, rubber, or metal. Secondary processes can include layered or bonded materials like carbon fibre. Measurement challenges vary, from gaps and roller systems to free space or single-sided checks on transparent materials. This webinar from Micro-Epsilon UK will illustrate a range of measurement techniques for these challenges
