About
Jouke Verlinden’s research lies at the intersection of sustainable manufacturing, human-robot coproduction, and augmented reality (AR) for industrial applications. His most influential work, a life cycle assessment of wire + arc additive manufacturing compared to green sand casting and CNC milling in stainless steel (179 citations), has become a cornerstone for evaluating the environmental impact of metal additive processes. Verlinden has also made significant contributions to human-robot collaboration, particularly for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), where he developed design methodologies to improve coproduction efficiency and workflow integration. A key focus of his research is the use of AR to support single-user and collaborative repair operations for industrial robots, with studies involving 160 participants that provide actionable guidance for industry implementation. His work on the “Factory-in-a-day” project, which aims to reduce production line installation time to just one day, demonstrates his commitment to rapid, flexible manufacturing solutions. With over 300 total citations, Verlinden’s research is shaping the future of sustainable, human-centered automation.
