The shoulder complex, also known as the glenohumeral joint is the most manoeuvrable and one of the most well used joints of the human body. Over time problems can occur with the glenohumeral joint and surrounding muscles, cartilage, tendons and ligaments caused by ageing or by over stressing the shoulder complex. This work examines the design of a...
Many small to medium enterprises (SMEs) in the UK are being forced to change the way they manage and dispose of waste. In part, this change has been due to the introduction of landfill taxes by the government, implemented to encourage companies to look at suitable and sustainable alternatives. This case study examines the application of key perform...
Many technologies and methodologies, such as CAD, FEA, SCM, Lean Manufacturing and ERP have been implemented in manufacturing organisations all over the world. They have been widely used to improve quality, reduce lead times and save money in many organisations. However, it is often large organisations who can afford to implement, maintain and util...
This paper examines a novel way of training Lean Manufacturing Systems and Tools utilising an Industry 4.0 methodology during the SARS-COVID2 Pandemic of 2020. Currently, it is challenging for the Integrated Production Systems Team, responsible for carrying out training on the Lean principles, to undertake the training safely and without the risk o...
There are many companies around the world implementing Lean Manufacturing Systems and Tools, also known as Lean practices. Although Lean practices have been proven to be very useful, there are a number of challenges when implementing and maintaining them. Culturally employees in different countries and companies have differing motivations. Therefor...
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, many companies around the world continued to implement and drive adherence to Lean principles. However, there are a number of key challenges each company would face when implementing Lean, one of those main challenges being workforce engagement. One way of measuring the engagement of Lean principles is by assessing adh...

Abstract
The purpose of the research is to aid the development of a technology implemented improvement model designed to be implemented in a UK SME’s. The model will examine the benefits achieved through implementing a model which is linked to lean thinking, Computer Aided Design, Finite Element Analysis joined with a foundry designed subcontract...
Many SMEs in the United Kingdom are being forced to change the way they manage and dispose of waste. In part, this change has been due to the introduction of landfill taxes by the Government, implemented to encourage companies to look at suitable and sustainable alternatives.
