Manufacturing opportunities at the XLZD Dark Matter search

04 December 2024 - 04 December 2024

The University of Sheffield and the UKRI Science and Technology Facilities Council are embarking on an ambitious quest to unlock the mysteries of dark matter with the XLZD experiment, a groundbreaking project potentially based at the Boulby Mine on England's northeast coast.


This presents a unique opportunity for UK engineering and manufacturing companies to:

Contribute to cutting-edge science: Be part of one of the world's most significant scientific endeavours.

Showcase innovation: Develop and deliver innovative solutions to meet the extraordinary technical challenges of XLZD.

Secure long-term contracts: Benefit from the potential for sustained involvement in XLZD and other UK Big Science programs.

Who should attend this event?

We are seeking industry partners with expertise in:

Precision engineering: Manufacturing of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, valves, and other critical components.

In-situ services: Providing portable welding, machining and inspection for initial construction and assembly, as well as on-site maintenance, repair, and installation services.

Innovative solutions: Developing novel manufacturing and compliance technologies to meet the demanding requirements of the experiment.

Don't miss this chance to shape the future of science and industry, whilst benefiting from such implementation.
