Short CV:

Braulio J. Álvarez earned an MSc in Industrial Engineering (2001) and a PhD (2009) from the University of Oviedo, Spain. Since 2003, he has been a member of the Department of Construction and Manufacturing Engineering at the University of Oviedo, where he was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2023. His research has primarily focused on industrial metrology, particularly in dimensional inspection and manufacturing process planning. Currently, his interests centre on dimensional inspection in additive manufacturing processes. He has contributed to numerous research projects, with his findings published in high-impact journals and presented at both national and international conferences.

    Abstract: Additive manufacturing processes are opening up a world of possibilities towards obtaining parts with complex geometry and adjustable properties. Its impact in sectors such as biomechanics, energy or aerospace is already appreciable, but the forecasts point to a real revolution linked to the development [...]

  • Projects,Public Funding Projects

    Abstract The project aims to develop an integrated manufacturing and non-contact dimensional inspection system using sensors based on Conoscopic Holography (CH). To this end, these sensors will be integrated into machine tools, initially three-axis machines, by developing the necessary mounting, communication, control, and calibration systems, [...]

  • Journal,Publications

    Abstract The use of non-contact scanning equipment in metrology and in dimensional and geometric inspection applications is increasing due to its ease of use, the speed and density of scans, and the current costs. In fact, these technologies are becoming increasingly dominant in the industrial [...]

  • Journal,Publications

    Abstract The improvement of industrial manufacturing processes requires measurement procedures and part inspection tasks to be faster and faster while remaining effective. In this sense, the capabilities of noncontact measuring systems are of great help, not only because of the great amount of data they [...]
