A world-class research centre will develop forming technologies for the manufacture of new products, including components and structures for aircraft wings, body parts and engines. The £25 million Advanced Forming Research Centre , to be opened in early 2010, will be sited near Glasgow airport and is a collaborative venture between the University of Strathclyde, Scottish Enterprise, and engineering firms including Boeing, Mettis Aerospace and Rolls-Royce. It aims to make the UK's engineering sector more competitive globally by bringing advanced products to market more quickly and cost-effectively.
