A study on value co-creative design and manufacturing system for tailor-made rubber shoes production — Construction of value co-creative smart factory

With the advancement in “Internet of Things (IoT)”, a smart manufacturing system has received much attention by worldwide manufacturers. In our project, the value co-creative design and manufacturing system for tailor-made rubber shoes using 3D reactive printer is proposed. This proposed system is basically constructed based on our proposed value co-creative methodology for mass customization scenario. In the proposed system, the delight running shoes are designed and produced by taking the real-time input measurements from customers, such as physical data, user comfortability, and etc. These measurements are then used for making tailor-made shoes and the production scheduling under IoT environment is also studied. In the smart factory, RFID tags are also installed and served as tracking devices when monitoring each operating processes along supply chains, and the multi-agent systems are used to adjust differential processing orders in accordance with delivery and distribution deadline and the conditions of machines and works.
