Descrizione e Attività
Descrizione Generale
LEAPFROG represents an industry-driven flagship project to achieve, through a joint focussed effort, the necessary scientific-technological breakthrough to transform the entire textile and clothing sector into a flexible knowledge-driven high-tech industry, by using new user-friendly production technologies, factory of the future concepts and innovative organisation models for the entire value-adding network, thereby preserving its long- term competitiveness in an enlarged Europe.
To achieve such industry transformation the LEAPFROG initiative will focus on 3 major objectives:
- a leap in productivity and cost efficiency in garment manufacturing. Radical reengineering and intelligent automation of the key tasks in this complex labour-intensive process will lead to an industrial breakthrough and remove the main cause of massive manufacturing localisation away from Europe;
- a radical move towards rapid customised manufacturing in one of the most demand-volatile sectors through flexibilisation and integration of cost-effective and sustainable processes from fabric processing through to customer delivery. Ever speedier fashion trends and retail order cycles will offer the flexible quick-responding EU manufacturer significant opportunities to exploit his proximity advantage and bring the right product to the right place at shortest notice;
- a paradigm change in customer service and customer relationship management with a focus on value-adding product-services. Innovative organisation will be developed and integrated within the knowledge based Extended Smart Garment Organisation - the new integrative framework for the organisation of flexible garment manufacturing of the future.
To achieve these ambitious goals, a unique industry-driven consortium of 11 user companies representing the entire chain from yarn to retail, 10 developers of machinery, systems and software, 12 multi-disciplinary research and education centres and 2 European-wide industry associates.
Attività svolta da ENEA
Partner di ricerca nelle aree attinenti al modulo di re-ingegnerizzazione dei processi, utilizzo di tecnologie ICT per la realizzazione di una piattaforma di collaborazione interaziendale e di una ontologia di riferimento del settore in continuità con le attività già svolte nei progetti Europei Moda-ML e TexSpin. L'ENEA parteciperà inoltre attivamente alla disseminazione dei risultati del progetto ed alle iniziative di training correlate al trasferimento tecnologico, che verranno veicolate attraverso la rete già operante di relazioni con aziende, centri di ricerca ed associazioni industriali del settore in Italia.
