Profile

Dr James Allum is the Design Lead at the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre Cymru, where he leads on design activity, process, and portfolio.

James joined the AMRC Cymru in 2021 following the completion of his PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough University. The topic of James’ research was investigating the mechanical performance of polymer parts generated by material extrusion additive manufacturing at Loughborough University. James has had his research published in a number of world leading journals, including Additive Manufacturing, Engineering Fracture Mechanics and 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing. Prior to his PhD, James worked as a design engineer in the biotech industry.

Most recently, James has been successful on a bid for a 30-month Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) in collaboration with a local crane manufacturer.
