    The Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC), which originated in Sheffield, has established a new North West base in the centre of Preston and will move into a purpose-built facility on the Samlesbury Enterprise Zone in March 2021. As a world class centre for advanced manufacturing the AMRC has expertise in machining, automation, robotics, digitally assisted assembly, casting, additive manufacturing, composites, design for manufacturing and testing…

    As a catalyst for the growth and success of the UK advanced manufacturing, the AMRC works with manufacturers of all sizes from all sectors helping them turn ideas into commercial applications by addressing the gap between technology, concept and commercialisation.

    The Centre works with over a hundred industrial partners ranging from global giants such as BAE Systems, Boeing, Rolls Royce and Airbus. The newly established North West Centre is a facility for advanced manufacturing research and excellence to drive productivity and innovation gains throughout Lancashire.

    The AMRC North West is already working with a number of Lancashire-based manufacturers to de-risk their journey into the digitalisation of manufacturing and developing new products and processes.

    The AMRC NW through its fully-funded ERDF contract is able to provide assistance to local manufacturers to enable them to take on the future challenges of leveraging technology to get closer to the end users, to deliver improved products and user experiences.
