引爆3D客製化生產戰局，西門子加入Adidas的3D客製化超級工廠
運動服裝巨頭Adidas將與電子生產技術公司西門子Siemens合作，強化Adidas的3D客製化超級工廠「SPEEDFACTORY」。Adidas一直以來不斷利用尖端生產技術實現他們「快速、透明、個性化」的企業形象，這次更拉攏了一個非常有才華的大咖合作夥伴加入他們的藍圖。
來自德國的西門子Siemens是歐洲最大的製造和電子公司之一，並將向Adidas提供相關的專業知識技術，以加強Adidas 3D客製化生產工廠「SPEEDFACTORY」的數位化生產技術，勢必將在3D印花鞋等革命性產品的大量生產上有更大的突破。
Adidas和西門子Siemens在2017年漢諾威展覽會上發布了這項合作關係，這是世界上最大的工業展會，西門子已經展示了一個新的線上3D列印需求平台，以及與3D打印巨頭Stratasys的合作成果。
透過西門子加入到SPEEDFACTORY項目中，Adidas成為西門子新的合作夥伴中規模最大的公司。Adidas表示，現在我們可以對整個生產流程進行模擬、測試和優化，大大縮短生產到上市的時間，不但為生產提供更大的靈活性，並且提高製造品質和效率。
「Adidas的3D客製化超級生產工廠SPEEDFACTORIES完美體現了未來生產的發展前景。」西門子公司管理委員會成員克勞斯·赫爾姆里奇(Klaus Helmrich)表示： 「更多客製化的消費趨勢加上能夠實現這些期望的新技術，將永久改變很多生產概念。」

Siemens joins Adidas SPEEDFACTORIES project for custom 3D printed sportswear
Sportswear giant Adidas is collaborating with manufacturing and technology company Siemens to improve the Adidas SPEEDFACTORY, a new production system that makes use of 3D printing and other modern technologies to produce high-quality sporting goods.In its mission to achieve “fast, transparent, and individualized production” using additive manufacturing and other cutting-edge production techniques, German sportswear icon Adidas has just recruited an incredibly talented and high-profile partner.
Siemens, also from Germany, is the largest manufacturing and electronics company in Europe, and will lend its expertise to Adidas in order to drive forward the digitalization of the Adidas SPEEDFACTORY, the sportswear company’s new factory concept that could signal the start of mass-produced 3D printed footwear and other revolutionary products.
The announcement of Adidas and Siemens’ new partnership was made at Hannover Messe 2017, the world’s largest industrial fair, where Siemens has already showcased a new online platform for on-demand 3D printing, as well as the fruits of its partnership with 3D printing giant Stratasys in its Mobility division.
By bringing Siemens on board with the SPEEDFACTORY project, Adidas becomes the latest high-profile company to make use of Siemens’ technological acumen. The sportswear company says it will now be able to simulate, test, and optimize the entire production process up front, helping it shorten the time to market, bring greater flexibility to production, and “provide improved manufacturing quality and efficiency.”
"Everything we do is focused on our consumers,” commented Gerd Manz, Vice President of Technology Innovation at Adidas. “They demand the highest level of individuality and quality. With SPEEDFACTORY we can completely rethink conventional processes and live up to these high expectations.
“By digitalizing the value chain, we will be able to implement new technological innovations more quickly, make more efficient and transparent use of the resources available and so respond more flexibly to the individual needs of our consumers.”
Adidas’ new SPEEDFACTORIES will initially open in Germany and the US, where the company will use digital manufacturing techniques like 3D printing, computerized knitting, and robotic cutting to create high-quality modern products.
One product that could be made in these SPEEDFACTORIES is Adidas’ new Futurecraft 4D 3D printed shoe, which Adidas says will be mass-produced in quantities of more than 100,000 pairs before 2019.
“The SPEEDFACTORIES run by Adidas are a perfect illustration of where the production of the future is heading,” said Klaus Helmrich, Member of the Management Board of Siemens AG. “The social trend towards greater customization coupled with new technologies capable of actually fulfilling these expectations will permanently change many production processes.”
We’re excited to see how Adidas uses its SPEEDFACTORIES to take its three stripes into the third dimension. With Siemens on board as a partner, the project looks poised for success.
