About
Anton Sotov is a leading researcher in advanced manufacturing, with a primary focus on additive manufacturing of continuous fibre reinforced polymer composites using industrial robots. His work addresses a critical challenge in modern mechanical engineering: integrating high-performance composite materials with automated, flexible production systems. Sotov’s most-cited review, published in 2024, synthesizes the state of the art in robotic additive manufacturing, highlighting how this technology can radically improve product quality and production conditions. With 10 citations in its first year, the paper has quickly become a foundational reference for engineers and scientists exploring the intersection of robotics and composite fabrication. Sotov’s contributions are particularly notable for bridging the gap between material science and industrial automation, offering practical pathways for manufacturing lightweight, high-strength components. His research not only advances the theoretical understanding of process-structure-property relationships but also provides actionable insights for real-world applications in aerospace, automotive, and beyond. By championing the use of industrial robots for continuous fibre placement, Sotov is helping to redefine the boundaries of what is possible in modern manufacturing.
