The European Metrology Network (EMN) for Advanced Manufacturing is developing a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) to identify priorities for research by Europe’s National Metrology Institutes and Designated Institutes and to identify collaboration partners for such research.

The first step was to perform a review of stakeholder needs, involving the EMN's stakeholder council which represents 13 key industry sectors in advanced manufacturing, stakeholder workshops, an open consultation event and a review of the literature.

An overview of the complete approach is given in the following presentation:

• Download draft introduction Strategic Research Agenda (version 2022)

Identified metrology needs are summarised in two presentations.

The first provides an overview of needs in cross cutting scientific topics. These are broadly applicable and relevant to many key industry sectors.

• Download draft SRA Cross Cutting topics (version 2022)

The second summarises needs regarding the EMN’s key industry sectors.

• Download draft SRA Key Industry Sectors (version 2022)

The content of these preliminary versions may change due to ongoing consideration of stakeholder feedback.

We welcome feedback and comments on requirements that we did not identify during that review. Please contact us >>
