We connect research with practice. We conduct research, deliver projects for industry and educate engineers ready to shape the future of production.
Four postgraduate programmes combining technical expertise, management and hands-on implementation.
Practical tools for process improvement and organisational management.
Learn more →For managers, team leaders, process engineers and professionals developing production systems.
Learn more →CAD/CAM/CAE, rapid prototyping, VR, reverse engineering and product development.

Learn more →We help businesses analyse, design and improve production processes and systems.
We develop solutions for the digital transformation of production processes — from collecting data at machines and workstations and integrating systems to creating digital models and tools that support production management.
We turn production data into actionable insights. We analyse process performance, identify relationships and anomalies, and build predictive models using statistical methods, machine learning and artificial intelligence.
We develop methods for production planning, scheduling and dynamic production control. We support decision-making under changing conditions and disruptions using simulation, real-time data, optimisation methods and AI.
We develop methods and tools supporting product design with environmental criteria considered from the concept and engineering stages. We analyse material selection, product architecture, possibilities for disassembly, reuse and recycling, integrating these criteria with the design process and CAD 3D environments.

Publications by members of the Division and co-authored books related to the unit’s research profile.
A comprehensive introduction to manufacturing engineering covering process planning, locating and clamping, quality issues and key machining methods. Digital visualisations and interactive materials help explain the relationships between product design, manufacturing processes and quality.
View publication →The book presents the use of augmented reality in engineering graphics, product design and engineering education. It discusses user-centred design, design for manufacturing and sustainability, and AR applications that transform 2D drawings into interactive spatial models.
View publication →The book presents quality management and quality engineering in the context of contemporary production systems and Industry 4.0. It covers quality definition and assessment, product characteristics, measurement, quality assurance throughout the product life cycle, and tools and methods for process improvement.
View publication →A practice-oriented guide to improving organisations and production processes. It discusses Lean Management, Kaizen and Six Sigma, showing how methods, techniques and good practices can be selected to improve operational efficiency and the quality of products and processes.
View publication →The handbook structures the knowledge needed to deliver projects effectively in a changing organisational environment. It covers defining objectives and outcomes, managing scope, cost, resources, time, quality and risk, as well as the role of the project manager and interpersonal competencies.
View publication →The monograph presents a method supporting environmental and recycling assessment of a product at the design stage. It covers a recycling-oriented product model, implementation in a 3D CAD environment, estimation of recycling costs and the use of agent technology to support design decisions in a distributed engineering environment.
View publication →A practical compendium of tools for process analysis and improvement and for solving quality problems. The methods are organised around activities performed when working with processes, including information decomposition and grouping, flow description, variability analysis, capability and performance assessment, problem prioritisation, relationship identification, change management and creative teamwork techniques.
View publication →We combine academic expertise with industrial practice and the education of future engineers.
