Continuous Optimization Strategy for Product Configuration Elements in Mass Customization Enterprises

Abstract

Abstract: Mass customization has become the trend for future manufacturing. By starting from the classification of product function and structure configuration elements, a product configuration element optimization model for enterprise is built. With this model, it explores different target-oriented product configuration element optimization strategies. An industrial case study is given to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

Key words: mass customization, product configuration elements, optimization
