Event Description
The theme of the international conference is Mass Customization intended as a way of producing goods and services aimed at satisfying the individual needs of customers and at the same time preserving the efficiency of mass production, in terms of low production costs and therefore low selling prices. It includes a number of production organization techniques and tools.
Participation will allow companies to deepen the issues relating to Mass Customization and above all to acquire useful information regarding the benefits that can be gained from the use of configurators through which to combine the customizations requested by customers while maintaining the reduced costs, typical of mass production, also bringing real-life examples.
The MC4.0 project
The MC 4.0 Project develops services for local SMEs (consulting, training, research, technology transfer) to increase their ability to meet the specific needs of the individual customer at affordable costs (MC - Mass Customization) through processes of digitized customization (4.0), which bring the customer closer to the production chain of SMEs by lowering costs, speeding up times and ensuring product quality. The digitalization of the customization process passes through increasingly performing product configuration tools.
