Digital manufacturing
Why
All initiatives worldwide are driven by the essential requirements that manufacturing industries must meet:
Reducing time-to-market
Due to faster changing customer demands, manufacturers have to launch products faster despite rising product complexity. The fast one beats the rest.
Enhancing flexibility
Customers want individualized products without paying a higher price. As a consequence, production has to be more flexible than ever before.
Increasing quality
Customers and society are demanding higher quality and product reliability. To ensure high product quality and to fulfill legal requirements and regulations, companies have to install closed-loop quality processes.
Increasing efficiency
Today, it is not only the product that needs to be sustainable and environmentally friendly – energy efficiency in manufacturing and production becomes a competitive advantage, too.
Reliability
Customers expect reliable partners and therefore it is utmost important to deliver on time, first time right.
Goal
Today new technologies are easily accessible to improve your business. To name a few: Artificial Intelligence, scalable compute power, low-cost data storage, sensors, Data Analytics, etc. As a result of technological innovations our way of working is disruptively changed within manufacturing.
