The Manufacturing Engineer – Metrology role is to turn a customer demand (a specification) into a method of manufacture that can then be executed to meet the customer demand within the required lead-time and cost. The ME has responsibility to continuously improve manufacturing / inspection methods in order to reduce lead-time, reduce cost and minimise the chance of non-conformance. As highly skilled practitioners, MEs are expected to be involved in the operation of the manufacturing / inspection processes to deliver the final product. Working with the research themes their practical insight will be used to influence technology roadmaps to ensure that future manufacturing capability is developed and deployed into the Workshop to further optimise our manufacturing methods. The role also includes the operation of the inspection processes to deliver the final product. Manufacturing Engineers will manage non-conformance, to create methods to bring non-conforming product back within specification.
