If you are looking to improve processes in order to maximise service levels to your customers, reduce operating costs or eliminate bottlenecks, but need to understand what the impacts of these changes before implementing them, process modelling and simulation could be the perfect solution

Our academics and consultants can help in determining opportunities for cost effective productivity and efficiency increases, can assist in the reduction of waste from the manufacturing process and increase efficiency of production processes by automation

We provide a broad range of consultancy services which draw on a unique combination of systems engineering, operational analysis and technology capabilities

Dormer Tools Sheffield Ltd a large local tool manufacturer requested the help of the university to understand areas for improvement of efficiencies in both of their manufacturing plants. The university suggested using a Knowledge Transfer Partnership Scheme to achieve their objectives.

The Viewfinder project built an autonomous robotic system to establish ground safety in the event of a fire.

A new project which brings humans and robots together could help firefighters tackle low visibility and, eventually, provide a robotic alternative to guide dogs for visually-impaired people

The MINIMAN project concerns the development of a smart microrobot with five degrees of freedom and a size of few centimetres squared

Microscopes have very limited depth-of-focus. This imposes a variety of constraints when building imaging and vision solutions for microscopes. The MMVL vision software for the MiCRoN-project uses a geometric hashing technique to compare all images in an image stack with the scene

A South Yorkshire hospital has cut costs and freed up bed space thanks to a computer modelling technique introduced by a Sheffield Hallam University academic

Doncaster-based meat company Anglo Beef Processors (ABP)'s major retail customer had decided that they wanted their range of meat products to be delivered in a new, smaller crate size to some of their stores to overcome the issue of in-store waste
