The UK has launched the world’s first zero-emissions cement industrial trial, aptly named Cement 2 Zero, which has secured £6.5m of government funding from UKRI as part of the Transforming Foundation Industries Challenge. The trial aims to advance the decarbonisation efforts of the construction, cement and steel sectors to create net zero industries of the future, helping to meet the net-zero by 2050 initiative.

In recent years, the world has seen a massive shift in technological advancements, and 5G has been at the forefront. As the next generation of mobile networks, 5G promises to bring new capabilities and benefits that will greatly impact the way industries operate but what about 5G in manufacturing?
Sheet metal fabrication is among the top choices if you need precision components for a range of industrial and commercial applications. It involves cutting, bending, punching, drilling and welding metals into customised shapes and forms. Sheet metal fabrication is a highly skilled process that requires specialised tools, state-of-the-art machinery and expertise to create high-quality products with tight tolerances. In this article, you will find out more about what sheet metal is, some of its applications and its benefits.
Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) is an effective approach to product design that emphasises the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of production and assembly. DFMA combines two methodologies — Design for Manufacturing and Design for Assembly — both equally focused on improving aspects of the production process for a better final product.
By utilising a company’s manufacturing processes, capabilities, and knowledge at the outset of designing your product, you can capitalise on their expertise during every phase of development. In this article, we explain the Design for Manufacturing and Assembly philosophy in more detail and why it’s even more important now.
Autonomous light rail, also known as self-driving or driverless trains, has the potential to revolutionise the way we travel by rail and the Luton DART is one such project. However, due to a rise in costs exceeding £300M, it has once again been delayed with no exact date beyond Easter 2023. In this article, find out why the Luton DART has been delayed, where it will go and the benefits of autonomous trains.
As we head into 2023, here are our most popular engineering blogs of 2022, including deep hole drilling machines, the new AbramsX battle tank, night-time solar panels and fascinating off-world construction projects for the Moon and Mars!
How Hydro-Abrasive Waterjet Cutting Compares to Traditional Methods
Hydro-abrasive waterjet cutting is a precision cutting technique that uses a high-pressure stream of water mixed with an abrasive substance to cut through materials. It is a versatile process that can be used to cut a wide range of materials, including metals, composites, glass, stone, and ceramics. In this article, we explore the advantages of this advanced process and some of its applications across various sectors.
The steel industry is a significant contributor to global carbon emissions, accounting for around 7% of all emissions. As such, decarbonising steel production is crucial for achieving global climate goals and reducing the impact of human activity on the environment. There are several ways to decarbonise the steel industry, including the use of alternative raw materials, such as recycled steel and iron ore, as well as the adoption of new technologies and processes that reduce carbon emissions during the steel-making process. In this article, we explore some of the challenges, benefits and processes of decarbonising steel production.
With space exploration advancing at a rapid pace, it won’t be long before we see humanity’s first home in another world using advanced off-world construction technologies.
To further develop efforts for building on the Moon, NASA has awarded ICON, a construction technologies company based in Austin, a contract to find practical off-world construction solutions for building on the lunar surface and on Mars. The primary objective of this partnership is to build infrastructures using 3D printing technology, including landing pads, habitats, and roads.
As construction technology advances, it’s important for companies to keep up as new methods and materials are being developed to make construction faster, easier, more efficient and sustainable. With more companies transitioning to digital platforms and embracing new technologies, the future of construction is sure to be an exciting one. Here are some of the most prominent technologies to consider now and in the future.
