About

David Cheshire is a researcher whose work has centered on the application of advanced machining and robotic technologies to the ceramics and sanitary ware industries. His primary research areas include the optimization of multi-axis milling in anthropomorphic robots and the development of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining techniques for producing plaster moulds and prototypes. Cheshire’s major contributions lie in demonstrating how robot systems can be leveraged for full-scale prototype production, thereby helping companies optimize resources and remain competitive in new markets. His most cited work, "Analysis of multi-axis milling in an anthropomorphic robot, using the design of experiments methodology" (2003), has garnered 18 citations, reflecting its influence in the field. Additionally, his research on tool life prediction for plaster machining (2007) and the analysis of CNC technology for plaster moulds (2001) has furthered the understanding of machining processes in the ceramics industry. Through his ongoing work at Staffordshire University, Cheshire has played a key role in bridging the gap between robotic capabilities and industrial manufacturing needs.
