The Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (Nuclear AMRC) is a collaboration of academic and industrial partners from across the nuclear manufacturing supply chain.
Our mission is to:
- Enhance the capabilities and competitiveness of the UK civil nuclear manufacturing industry.
- Work with members to develop world-leading manufacturing processes and technologies.
- Help British manufacturing companies compete for nuclear contracts worldwide.
- Become the focal point for Britain’s civil nuclear manufacturing industry.
The Nuclear AMRC brings together the manufacturing and engineering expertise of the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) with Boeing, the nuclear and materials technology capacity of The University of Manchester Dalton Nuclear Institute and the experience and resources of industry leaders.
We are led by our industrial members. We currently have 32 member companies, including reactor vendors, manufacturers from along the supply chain, and equipment and service providers.
We are part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, a network of seven leading manufacturing research centres backed by the Technology Strategy Board.
The Nuclear AMRC is supported by EDF Energy, the Nuclear Industry Association and the National Nuclear Laboratory.
Delivery partners include the Manufacturing Advisory Service and the National Skills Academy for Nuclear.
Development of the Nuclear AMRC has been funded by BIS and the European Regional Development Fund.
