“…In this competition, the product configuration, i.e., selection and use of common components/modules of individualized products, can be used to accomplish total diversity (mass personalization) or standardized products (a limited set of products). For intermediate cases (between total diversity and standardized products), a new uncertain decision model was proposed in [30], where the aim was to find the optimal product configuration using redundancy and/or standardization strategy to minimize the total costs. The standardization (component/subsystem standardization) displayed better performance than the redundancy strategy and a flexible platform strategy effectively reduced the production costs [30].…”

Standards may be arrived at through various coordination mechanisms, including cooperation, coopetition, or competition. This article explores how technological uncertainty affects the coordination mechanism for standardization. The article is based on the Community Innovation Survey, a sizeable firm-level survey representative of the Luxembourgish economy. The econometric analysis finds evidence that firms facing technological uncertainty will choose for standardization through competition and coopetition.

“…Mass customization starts from the customization and complex demands of customers in the market and adjusts the original mass production mode to quickly respond to the change in external demand. The specific production problems within enterprises under the background of mass customization are focus areas worthy of attention [20,21]. Among them, Modrak, V et al [22] provided an effective solution to optimize batch size to minimize product delivery time and maximize system throughput in mass customization mode.…”

“…First, the relationship between the adjacent two position points of the same product on the same machine is determined. If there are many production tasks at the two adjacent position points on a certain machine and the same product is produced at the two position points, the start time of the lot production task at the latter position point should not be less than the end time of the lot production task at the former position point, which can be expressed by (21):…”

With the gradual diversification of customer demand, to improve the rapid response ability of enterprises, this paper fully considers uncertain market information under the background of mass customization and establishes a new process industry multi-product switching production lot sizing and scheduling model with the goal of minimizing the maximum completion time and total switching cost. Fuzzy chance-constrained programming is used to explicitly incorporate market demand with uncertain quantities into the model. Starting from reality, this paper considers the switching cost of equipment when processing multiple varieties of products and skillfully integrates the conversion rate of materials during processing into the novel model, making the entire production system closer to the real state. It provides a new concept to consider cost reduction for actual workshop scheduling management. In addition, this paper proposes an improved multi-objective genetic particle swarm optimization (SMOPSO-IIs) algorithm to simulate and solve the model. The operation results show that the Pareto solution obtained by the SMOPSO-IIs algorithm is better overall. Finally, the model is solved by example simulation, and the operation results are analyzed along with a scheduling Gantt chart to verify its applicability and effectiveness. The model presented in this paper can be used to further shorten the gap between production theory and practical application and improve the current workshop scheduling management system of the process industry.INDEX TERMS Mass customization, process industry lot sizing and scheduling; uncertain market information; product switching

“…Wang et al proposed a framework to bridge the gap between mass сustomization and mass personalization using I4.0 technologies [24]. Specifically targeting intermediate product configurations that are neither generic nor standardized, Song et al proposed an uncertain decision-making model for mass personalization of production within I4.0 [25]. These authors presented the theoretical foundations and practical implementation of an assembly system for high-tech products, using the principles of standardization and redundancy.…”

Hyperautomation is a promising but sparingly implemented concept in intelligent manufacturing. One of the reasons for the suboptimal adoption of hyperautomation is the large gap between current theoretical frameworks and practical methodologies and tools that can be applied in a real industrial production scenario. This situation has become much more complicated in high-tech enterprises, which face a particular set of issues in terms of innovation, cost-effectiveness, and supply chain management in today's globalized environment. This manuscript provides a new conceptual business framework and technological background for achieving sustainable hyperautomation in the manufacturing of linear electromechanical actuators (LEMA), a key component of several cyberphysical actuators. A set of digital tools and innovative concepts, such as intra-enterprise 3-level factory and definitive designs based on unified solutions, which enable mass customization and offer up to 1000 variants of the LEMAs, are introduced to achieve synergistic interaction between different business functions and provide significant cost and technological advantages. To make manufacturing more customizable, a modular design approach is used, and simultaneously, to facilitate mass production, the focus is given on roller screw transmission modules, representing approximately three-fourths of the added value of LEMA. Furthermore, the concept of synergetic forward integration is proposed and explained using an example of robotic resistance spot welding. This framework involves a closed loop of industrial mature digital tools that enables autonomous product design and manufacturing via Responsive R&D (Research and Development) and feedback-driven dynamic interactions with the marked and production system. These steps allow intelligent and automatic decision making throughout the digitally connected systems within the company and out of the company through a digital networked connected intra-enterprise world inside the supply chain with minimal human intervention.
