The vision of the Hub is to create ground-breaking embedded metrology and universal metrology informatics systems to be applied across the manufacturing value chain. This encompasses a paradigm shift in measurement technologies, embedded sensors/instrumentation and metrology solutions. A unified approach to creating new, scientifically-validated measurement technologies in manufacturing will lead to critical underpinning solutions to stimulate significant growth in the UK's productivity and facilitate future factories.Global manufacturing is evolving through disruptive technologies towards a goal of autonomous production, with manufacturing value-chains increasingly digitised. Future factories must be faster, more responsive and closer to customers as manufacturing is driven towards mass customisation of lower-cost products on demand. Metrology is crucial in underpinning quality, productivity and efficiency gains under these new manufacturing paradigms.The Advanced Metrology Hub brings together a multi-disciplinary team from Huddersfield with spokes at Loughborough, Bath and Sheffield universities, with fundamental support from NPL. Expertise in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science will address the grand challenges in advanced metrology and the Hub's vision through two key research themes and parallel platform activities:Theme I - Embedded Metrology will build sound technological foundations by bridging four formidable gaps in process- and component-embedded metrology. This covers: physical limits on the depth of field; high dynamic range measurement; real-time dynamic data acquisition in optical sensor/instruments; and robust, adaptive, scalable models for real-time control systems using sensor networks with different physical properties under time-discontinuous conditions.Theme II - Metrology Data analytics will create a smart knowledge system to unify metrology language, understanding, and usage between design, production and verification for geometrical products manufacturing; Establishment of data analytics systems to extract maximal information from measurement data going beyond state-of-the-art for optimisation of the manufacturing process to include system validation and product monitoring.Platform research activities will underpin the Hub's vision and core research programmes, stimulate new areas of research and support the progression of fundamental and early-stage research towards deployment and impact activities over the Hub's lifetime.In the early stage of the Hub, the core research programme will focus on four categories (Next generation of surface metrology; Metrology technologies and applications; In-process metrology and Machine-tool and large volume metrology) to meet UK industry's strategic agenda and facilitate their new products.The resulting pervasive embedding and integration of manufacturing metrology by the Hub will have far reaching implications for UK manufacturing as maximum improvements in product quality, minimization of waste/rework, and minimum lead-times will ultimately deliver direct productivity benefits and improved competitiveness. These benefits will be achieved by significantly reducing (by 50% to 75%) verification cost across a wide swathe of manufacture sectors (e.g. aerospace, automotive, electronics, energy, medical devices, optics, precision engineering) where the current cost of verification is high (up to 20% of total costs) and where product quality and performance is critical.

Hub的愿景是创建突破性的嵌入式计量和通用计量信息系统，应用于制造业价值链。这包括测量技术、嵌入式传感器/仪器和计量解决方案的范式转变。在制造业中创建新的、经过科学验证的测量技术的统一方法将带来关键的支撑性解决方案，以刺激英国生产率的显著增长并促进未来的工厂。全球制造业正在通过颠覆性技术向自主生产的目标发展，制造业价值链日益数字化。随着制造业转向按需大规模定制低成本产品，未来的工厂必须更快、更灵敏、更贴近客户。在这些新的制造模式下，计量对于支撑质量、生产率和效率的提高至关重要。先进计量中心汇集了来自哈德斯菲尔德的一个多学科团队，在拉夫堡、巴斯和谢菲尔德的大学担任轮辐，并得到了NPL的根本支持。工程、数学、物理和计算机科学方面的专业知识将通过两个关键的研究主题和平行的平台活动来应对先进计量领域的重大挑战和中心的愿景：主题I-嵌入式计量将通过弥合工艺和部件嵌入计量中的四个巨大差距来建立坚实的技术基础。这包括：景深的物理限制；高动态范围测量；光学传感器/仪器的实时动态数据采集；以及在时间不连续的条件下使用不同物理属性的传感器网络用于实时控制系统的健壮、自适应、可扩展的模型。主题II-计量数据分析将创建一个智能知识系统，以统一几何产品制造的设计、生产和验证之间的计量语言、理解和使用；建立数据分析系统，从最先进的测量数据中提取最大的信息，以优化制造过程，包括系统验证和产品监控。平台研究活动将支持中心的愿景和核心研究计划，刺激新的研究领域，并支持基础研究和早期研究的进展，以便在中心的整个生命周期内开展部署和影响活动。在中心的早期阶段，核心研究计划将集中在四个类别(下一代表面计量；计量技术和应用；制造中心全面嵌入和集成制造计量将对英国制造业产生深远的影响，因为最大限度地提高产品质量、最大限度地减少浪费/返工和最短的交货期最终将带来直接的生产力优势和提高竞争力。在当前验证成本较高(高达总成本的20%)且产品质量和性能至关重要的众多制造行业(例如航空航天、汽车、电子、能源、医疗设备、光学、精密工程)中，通过大幅降低(降低50%至75%)验证成本，将实现这些优势。
