The United States Air Force (USAF) recently saw how the AMRC’s world-leading technologies and techniques could reshape its day-to-day operations. A delegation from RAF Lakenheath, home to the 48th Fighter Wing, visited the University of Sheffield’s Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) facilities in Rotherham and Sheffield to understand how digital technologies, composite materials and advanced machining might integrate into USAF’s MRO processes. Last year, the AMRC worked with RAF Leeming to demonstrate how Industry 4.0 digital technologies could transform how it operates and trains its workforce.
