Long bio

Manish Sharma is Head of AI & R&D at Exafuse. He leads additive-manufacturing projects across process development, sensing, software, quality checks and delivery. Duisburg bridge components, 2024: led process monitoring and control work that enabled unattended builds and coordinated the overall project timeline. Testing was outside his role. Built an integrated LMD control system spanning modelling, simulation, path planning, camera and sensor monitoring, software, data processing and live control. This work forms part of his doctoral thesis. Recurring invited guest lectures at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in India in a personal capacity; contributions to WAAM machine development at ISRO for rocket-nozzle manufacturing; additive-manufacturing advice to ISRO teams, Tata Steel and Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), Haridwar. PhD at Ruhr University Bochum expected in 2027; research completed, thesis at the submission stage.
