For people, place, prosperity and planet, we deliver impact with measurement science

Welcome to the Manufacturer Measurement Network events page

The MMN is an event based knowledge exchange network for the UK supply chain, innovators and academia who want to learn more about emerging technologies, best practices and to discover new and related developments in their business areas.

Upcoming events

Precision manufacturing workshop: Tackling dimensional measurement challenges.

Dimensional measurement poses a huge challenge for UK manufacturers. Even features that seem simple to measure - like a cylindrical hole - can lead to inconsistent results across the supply chain due to differences in metrology methods used. These inconsistencies cost time, money and affect trust, as well as compromising interoperability. 

This workshop, hosted by the National Physical Laboratory’s (NPL) Manufacturers Measurement Network in collaboration with West Yorkshire Manufacturing Services (WYMS), is designed to help manufacturers overcome these challenges
