Faculty of Science & Engineering at Anglia Ruskin University

Dr Javaid But is a specialist in the fields of Additive Manufacturing and Industry 4.0. He is working as an Associate Professor of Digital Manufacturing in the Faculty of Science & Engineering at Anglia Ruskin University. Dr Butt has won over £5.8 million in the past 5 years from different funding sources (including Innovate UK, Erasmus+, Interreg North Sea Region, KTP, KEEP+). Majority of his work is with industrial collaborators where he has successfully delivered projects of commercial value. His research work helped him in winning the Vice Chancellor’s Award in the Outstanding Research and Innovation Established Researcher category for exceptional contribution to Anglia Ruskin University’s ambitions in November 2021. Dr Butt has designed and developed several new manufacturing systems to various technology readiness levels to produce plastic, metal, and composite products using different automation principles and programming languages (e.g., C, C++, Python). His research in these areas has been published extensively in reputed international journals with 37 publications since 2015. He has also provided consultancies to several national/international businesses and led several knowledge exchange activities. Dr Butt’s current research focuses on the development of digital twins for additive manufacturing systems to enhance their performance using data-driven models and machine learning algorithms.
