www.lincoln.ac.uk
The Food Manufacturing Sector.
UKs largest manufacturing sector -Larger than automobile and aerospace combined. Fast moving: Perishable ingredients and end products. Customer expectation of frequent production (for typically space, cash flow and exposure reasons Complex: Long supply chains from farms and pack houses through primary and secondary processing, numerous handling, packaging and transport systems Diverse: Production systems and supply chains vary across chilled, frozen and ambient food categories. www.lincoln.ac.uk
The UK is a key stakeholder and innovator in
the food-tech sector... Global challenges such as rising population, shortages of land, water and energy require better and more reliable production of food. - economy and employs more than half a million people. - million (14%). Government support for the food sector is a constant focus. www.lincoln.ac.uk
The Need For Food Engineering Degree
Apprenticeship Programmes:
Sector continues to grow.
Loss of skills and experience as employees move
sectors or retire.
Technology advances.
Financial and service pressures require increasingly more from plant and people.
Meet specific business requirements.
www.lincoln.ac.uk
The Food Engineering Degree
Apprenticeship (DA) Initiative...
Response to industry needs for flexible part-time education and the Government initiative of the Apprenticeship Levy. Offer the opportunity for the development of experienced employees and those apprentices on Level 3 engineering apprenticeships who need a progression route.

Robot Chefs Initiative: NCFM & OAL.
In 2014, global robot sales increased by 29% to 229,261 units with the main growth seen in the
automotive industry, representing 40% of all robots sold. The UK food and drink sector currently has a
10-year average adoption rate of just 63 robots a year.
China has expanded its leading position in the adoption of robotics with 25% of the total supply in 2014.
High productivity countries such as Germany, France and US show a strong correlation to the number of
robotic installations. The forecast for robotic installations sees China looking to around 150,000 by
2018, double the 2014 levels, compared to the UK whose outlook is relatively flat during the same
period. With the food and beverage sector at such low levels of commitment and as such an important
economic contributor, the use of robotics must become part of the vision for the future food factory,
and the move to Food Manufacturing 4.0. www.lincoln.ac.uk Developing a Centre of Excellence for Robotic Food Manufacturing and Championing Food Manufacturing 4.0

Robotic Broccoli Harvesting:
The broccoli harvesting robot uses a low cost 3D Kinect camera (X-Box). Machine identifies broccoli in fields with up to 95 % accuracy. www.lincoln.ac.uk Bioinformatics Capability: Collecting and analysing complex biological data such as genetic codes. Wide range of potential food sector applications including the capacity to examine and document the genome sequence of the food-borne pathogen Campylobacter ʹthe most common cause of food poisoning in the UK. www.lincoln.ac.uk
