Nuclear AMRC

The Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre helps UK manufacturers win work in the nuclear power sector. We work with UK manufacturers to improve their capabilities and performance for nuclear and other demanding sectors. Our facilities and services are open to companies of all sizes. Our researchers focus on developing innovative techniques and optimised processes for large-scale high-precision manufacturing. You can use the expertise of our engineers and our facilities to develop and test new processes on production-scale machines without losing capacity in your own factories. As well as technical support, we provide a range of business development services to help manufacturers enter the nuclear supply chain and compete worldwide. Since our launch in 2012, we have worked with more than 1,000 companies, delivered real value to the industry, and become established as the UK's centre of excellence for advanced nuclear manufacturing. We work closely with nuclear industry leaders including new build groups, reactor developers and decommissioning site licence companies, and advise government through our seat on the Nuclear Innovation and Research Advisory Board. We form part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, a national alliance of seven leading manufacturing research centres backed by Innovate UK. We are owned by the University of Sheffield as part of its world-leading advanced manufacturing innovation cluster.To meet industry needs, we continue to expand the capabilities of our research factory in South Yorkshire and our growing network of regional facilities. Our Birkenhead facility is developing new techniques for modular manufacturing, and the new Nuclear AMRC Midlands in Derby is exploring new technology areas and tackling cross-sector challenges.
