Dr. Cheng Kai
 

 Professor Cheng Kai was appointed as Chair Professor in Manufacturing Systems and Head of Advanced Manufacturing & Enterprise Engineering (AMEE) Department at Brunel University since 2006. Professor Cheng’s academic experience in precision engineering research and education has been accumulated through working extensively with industry internationally and also benefited from working in different institutions and international contexts.

Professor Cheng’s current research interests focus on design of high precision machines, ultra-precision and micro manufacturing, smart tooling and smart machining, and sustainable manufacturing systems. He is currently leading the Micro/Nano Manufacturing Theme at Brunel University and working on a number of research projects funded by the EPSRC, NATEP Program, RAEng, Innovate UK program, EU Horizon 2020 Programs, and the industry. Professor Cheng and his team have enjoyed working closely with industrial companies in the UK, Europe, USA and Far East. The UltraMill – a 5-axis CNC ultraprecision machine jointly developed by his team at Brunel and UMP Ltd (a UK company) is a milestone research outcome, well received by researchers and practitioners in ultraprecision and micro manufacturing community worldwide. Over the last  10  years, Professor Cheng and his AMEE team has built up  an international centre  of excellence in precision engineering at Brunel, as evidenced by the team’s research outcomes and academic track records. AMEE was involved in 2008 RAE and 2014 REF General Engineering unit submission and ranked well in the country.
