Prototyping & Engineering


Outcome
Tested solutions, clearer risk profiles and shorter paths from concept to deployment.

What we do
We design and build laboratory rigs, skid units and pilot systems to test circular and AI-enabled concepts under realistic conditions. We plan experiments, instrument systems, collect and analyse data, and translate results into engineering designs and techno-economic assessments. We also help prepare documentation for regulation and safety.

AI capabilities
Prototyping is where AI models are connected to real hardware and data:

  • Development and validation of AI models using experimental data generated on rigs and pilots
  • Integration of AI vision, sensors and control logic into prototype systems
  • Real-time data acquisition and analysis to evaluate AI performance and reliability
  • Use of digital twins to explore design modifications and operating strategies before physical changes are made

This service is particularly suitable for grant-funded demonstrators and early-stage industrial trials.

Good for
Organisations moving from research and concept studies toward on-site demonstrations and future commercial deployment.
