Technical Tour - NPL

The conference will include an optional guided visit tothe National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Teddington.NPL is the UK's national metrology institute and hasrecently moved to a state-of-the-art new building onits Teddington site. The tour will include talks on thedimensional metrology facilities at NPL (includingcoordinate metrology, large scale metrology, lasertracer calibration, engineering measurements andsurface texture) and accompanying laboratorydemonstrations.

A selection of 2 hour duration tutorials will be providedby leading experts in the field. For more details pleasesee www.lamdamap.com

Thursday 2nd July 2009Technical Sessions

Brunel University, UK and the National PhysicalLaboratory (NPL), UK are very proud to jointly host the9th International Conference and Exhibition on lasermetrology, machine tool, CMM and robotic performance(LAMDAMAP).

Research at Brunel and NPL has a key focus onAdvanced Manufacturing & Metrology using LaserTechniques and therefore has close synergy with thescope and objectives of the successful Lamdamapseries. The conference will present the latesttechnology in machine tool performance andassessment; co-ordinate metrology; novel machinestructures; ultra precision/micro manufacturing andrelated disciplines. We look forward to welcoming youat Brunel and NPL and to sharing information on thelatest research and developments in these and relatedfields.

Venue

There will be two venues hosting Lamdamap 2009.Brunel University, UK will hold the 3 day conference andexhibition and NPL, UK will host the technical tour andconference dinner on Wednesday 1st July.

The Advanced Manufacturing & Enterprise Engineering(AMEE) department at Brunel is one of the firstintegrated innovative engineering groups in the UnitedKingdom. The department carries out world classresearch in advanced manufacturing technology,enterprise engineering and engineering management.

The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is the UK’sNational Measurement Institute and is a world-leadingcentre of excellence in developing and applying themost accurate measurement standards, science andtechnology available to man. For more than a centuryNPL has developed and maintained the nation’s primary

measurement standards.
