How can mass production methods be applied to individualized products?

One answer is to use a combination of digital manufacturing technologies, for example by integrating digital printing and laser processing into traditional manufacturing processes. This paves the way for in-line product customization. Six Fraunhofer institutes have pooled their expertise to take the new process to the next level. The term mass production generally suggests large Read more about How can mass production methods be applied to individualized products?[…]

Adopting materials modelling to challenges in manufacturing processes

Specific Challenge: Improved decision making for materials producers and product manufacturers needs an environment that gives fast access to information and thereby allows reacting to changing feedstock, markets and regulatory demands. This would need an open translation environment that translates a specific manufacturing challenge into a materials modelling workflow that provides knowledge to support optimal Read more about Adopting materials modelling to challenges in manufacturing processes[…]
