This feasibility study will explore how advanced robotics processes could enable scale up of hydrogen fuel cell stack product manufacture.

The project partners will explore how lithium mica can be extracted from decomposed granite, which is abundantly present in Cornwall and used for the extraction of china clay.

The Hackathon for our Future Fashion Factory project with Burberry, the University of Huddersfield, and Miretur Ltd. sought to explore whether leather used in car seats can be given a second life and turned into a new product.

As part of the SeaTrace project, HSSMI and MarinTrust brought together key stakeholders to discuss the challenges in the supply chain, technology gaps and how to overcome them, providing a foundation upon which to explore how modern technologies for traceability can be implemented in marine.

HSSMI has joined Ultramax in a six-month study called Li-BAR to determine the feasibility of establishing co-located battery pack assembly and remanufacturing facilities. It is anticipated that co-locating the sites will provide opportunities to optimally use batteries throughout their lives.

The development of non-destructive inline testing machines and procedures will enable manufacturers to employ a no-faults-forward principle, thereby reducing costs invested in failed parts, limiting unnecessary waste and optimising the number of FA&T (formation, ageing and testing) channels.
