Biography
Dr Haydn Martin is a Reader in the School of Computing and Engineering since 2022, following on from previous appointments as Senior Lecturer (2014), Senior Research Fellow (2012) and Research Fellow (2010). He gained his PhD in Optical Metrology from the University of Huddersfield in 2010.
Haydn is a member of the Centre for Precision Technologies (CPT) and a co-investigator for the EPSRC Future Metrology Hub for Sustainable Manufacturing.
His main research interests are in the fields of applied optics and manufacturing metrology where he concentrates on the development of novel optical sensing techniques aimed primarily at high/ultra-precision manufacturing platforms. The broad goal is to migrate metrology from conventional off-line instrumentation and to help facilitate a move to flexible and distributed manufacturing.
On-line and in-process metrology, where measurements are made directly on the manufacturing platform, can solve many challenges associated with process control and quality assurance. The result is improved productivity, capability, flexibility and automation coupled with a reduction in the requirement for highly-skilled operatives.
For modern manufacturing, integrated surface/dimensional measurement is a key piece in the puzzle needed to provide: a) mass production of next-generation engineered products featuring complex geometries and features; b) improved flexibility and automation for future factories producing small runs of highly customised products; c) state-of-the-art for manufacturing capability to support cutting-edge science.
