Innovative Manufacturing Challenges for Policymakers Seminar on New Manufacturing, Villa Manin, Passariano, Italy November 27, 2015

Address by Peter Marsh Author, “The New Industrial Revolution: Consumers, Globalization and the End of Mass Production” www.petermarsh.eu www.madeherenow.com @petermarsh307

Opportunities in “new manufacturing” What can policymakers do?  Educate

 Identify  Promote

Educate by discussing the new tools, new opportunities

Engineered Arts, Cornwall- robots for social interaction & entertainment

Role models: Luxottica’s story involves supply/information chains linking Italy & world

China expansion a key part of the Luxottica story (Dongguan City plant)

Look for colourful companies and tell people about them: Winzeler Gear (Chicago)

Identification: the power of example - Prima Industrie (Italy)

Monocrom of Spain: creator of multi-use lasers

Monocrom lasers: in use from top right, sorting metal rubbish (Shredsorter project); heat treatment of steel (Jo Controls car seats); eye surgery (Lutronic)

Promotion: encourage clusters/academic links – as in Odense in Denmark (robotics)

Universal Robots , Odense with Esben Østergaard, co-founder

Map companies’ growth – look for connections



Odense robotics network

Safeguard craft skills where appropriateGoppion, global leader in museum cases (Italy)

Protecting assets with high-tech displays

Goppion cases: Museo Egizio, Turin

Support talented individuals: Ricardo Simian of Switzerland uses 3D printing to make 16th centurystyle cornets

Encourage connections: Next Scan in Belgium leader in ultra-fast lasers

Next Scan (Belgium): Laser Drilling system, produces 50,000 holes/sec; each hole about 30 micrometres wide

Collaboration at work: small laser groups in Europe (Appolo programme)

Do more to create jobs from R&D ventures such as Catapult: more than 100,000 jobs in life sciences in Massachusetts (25pc in manufacturing)

Building great companies can sometimes take a long time: Aveva in UK and ESI (Engineering Systems International) in France

Areva: left, a view of the CAD Centre where it started in 1967. ESI was started in 1973. Now they are leaders in plant/engineering prototyping software and each employ over 1,000 people

1998 paper Sensors and Communication: Lamp-posts on the Internet

Prof Andy Hopper Dept of Engineering University of Cambridge

• Prof Andy Hopper • Dept of Engineering • University of Cambridge

17 years on, Hopper’s ideas are working: Ubisense (Cambridge) uses ‘lamppost’ thinking to track objects eg in factories

Ubisense chairman – Andy Hopper, head of Cambridge Computer Laboratory

…and engineers are indeed putting sensors on to lampposts
