Project Description
Lamdamap 15th International Conference & Exhibition
March 2023, The University of Edinburgh, UK
March 2023 at The University of Edinburgh, UK

The 15th International Conference and Exhibition on Laser Metrology, Coordinate Measuring Machine and Machine Tool Performance, (LAMDAMAP 2023) will be organised by euspen drawing together many of the worlds distinguished scientists and engineers from all areas of science, engineering and medicine; representing both industry and academia.
Advanced machine tool metrology supports superior part production; enabling, understanding and tracking of baseline performance machines. Whilst the trend towards nanometre level surfaces finishes and features progresses, matching both form and finish coherently in complex parts remains a major challenge.
This conference will take place at The University of Edinburgh and will focus on Metrology in New Fabrication Techniques; New Developments in Measurement Techniques; Novel Manufacturing Technologies & Machine Tools; Performance Evaluation for Machine Tools & CMMs; Roughness & Machine Tool Standards; Accuracy and Performance Evaluation of Industrial Manipulators; Integrated Metrology in New Fabrication Techniques and Machine Learning for Metrology and Precision.
The organising committee and local hosts for euspen‘s 15th Lamdamap Conference and Exhibition are :- Prof. Andreas Archenti, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, SE; Prof. Rebecca Cheung, University of Edinburgh, UK; Prof. Andrew Longstaff, University of Huddersfield, UK; Dr Philip T Martin, AWE, UK and Dr Nan Yu, University of Edinburgh, UK.
The 15th Lamdamap Conference meeting chair is Prof. Andrew Longstaff from the University of Huddersfield, UK
Networking is the key to the success of euspen’s events, and the LAMDAMAP event is designed to allow delegates, speakers, and exhibitors alike the ability to meet and discuss issues of immediate relevance to the area of machine tool metrology. To stimulate such cross fertilisation of ideas and experiences, in addition to the numerous on-site opportunities to have in-depth discussion with peers, delegates are able to attend a networking dinner.
Delegates will also be able to access the exhibition that runs alongside the conference, where they can come into contact with the cream of technology and service suppliers that represent the key strategic partners that manufacturing companies must access in order to reach their machine tool metrology goals.
The production of more and more accurate and smaller and smaller components relies and indeed is underpinned by advanced machine tool metrology, which facilitates the assessment of performance of machines. This requirement becomes more pressing as the drive in industry towards the greater use of nano-scale surface finishes and features gathers pace. It is vital that form and finish is produced consistently in small complex parts, and it is here that the key challenge for advanced metrology solutions exists today.
Therein the poster sessions, exhibition and time allocated for discussing presentations at the event, will allow the next generation of manufacturers to utilise all available advances in measurement techniques to meet tomorrow’s specifications.
