The AMRICC Centre is the UK's Centre of Excellence for Advanced Ceramics, providing the ability to rapidly solve materials development and production challenges from a fully built-out pilot-scale facility, and thus accelerate products to market. As an open-access international facility, the Centre translate materials, processes, and technologies into real-world products and solutions through the commercialisation of innovative ideas.
It is hosted and managed by Lucideon on behalf of the MICG consortium in close collaboration with industry & academia and was jointly funded by the UKRI Strength in Places Fund (SIPF) and Lucideon to deliver the benefits of the Midlands Advanced Ceramics for industry 4.0 project for all.
The AMRICC Centre combines capabilities from powder processing, forming, sintering, and testing, all the way through the manufacturing process, all in one place. The cutting-edge equipment suite provides capabilities that are rarely available elsewhere, covering a range of extreme conditions from densification with hot or cold isostatic pressure, to sintering up to 3000 degrees, sintering in a vacuum, or in atmospheres such as argon.
The centre covers conventional and non-conventional manufacturing methods such as additive manufacturing, and both conventional and novel sintering techniques, with all of this supported by a suite of testing and analytics capability, all at greater-than-lab scale. The Centre allows you to change or develop a new manufacturing process with industrially relevant facilities outside of your current production line.
Threaded through AMRICC’s development work is expertise in computational modelling and data science, along with digital twinning, computational materials development, and other future-facing Industry 4.0 practices.
The BDA is the national authority on clay bricks. Its membership accounts for almost 100% of the industry’s productivity in the UK, which deliver excellent quality through a reliable supply chain. As such, the BDA collates the latest and most authoritative statistical data on UK clay brick production, distribution and sustainability commitments.
UK brick manufacturers provide free technical guides, advice and CPDs through the BDA. Whether your procurement teams seek advice on how best to manage the supply of bricks; your architects seek guidance on design specifications; or your onsite teams seek certainty about good site practice and workmanship, the BDA is your source of impartial, expert information.
Heatcatcher supports customers on their Heat Decarbonisation journey, with extensive experience of integrating the best available waste heat recovery technologies, reducing their fossil fuel consumption and associated carbon emissions.
Recovering waste heat either directly back to the process or through an electric heat pump to produce a higher temperature heat for the process, reduces fossil fuel energy and switches the energy to zero carbon electricity.
Heatcatchers technology independent service supports the Heat Decarbonisation journey starting from quantifying how much heat is available where to recover it and its value, to the design, build, commissioning, operation through to ongoing optimisation support.
