Digital transition is a fundamental drivers on which industries worldwide are aiming to successfully face the challenge of process optimization. Therefore, promoting a digital transformation of businesses is one of the challenges of all centuries. In this research, a production process evaluation was proposed concerning an Italian company that produces aluminum cabinets used as electric charging stations for cars.

Abstract

Digital transition is a fundamental drivers on which industries worldwide are aiming to successfully face the challenge of process optimization. Therefore, promoting a digital transformation of businesses is one of the challenges of all centuries. In this research, a production process evaluation was proposed concerning an Italian company that produces aluminum cabinets used as electric charging stations for cars. A digital model (using simulation software) was developed to perform experiments and what-if scenarios of the existing production system. The results are promising and help to focus the company's strategic decisions. The study is a pilot study scalable to different sectors not only the manufacturing sector.
