Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for optimizing the manufacture of wooden furniture. The system is configured to receive a user selection of a furniture product; receive a user input associated with the one or more variables for each of the one or more components of the furniture product; generate a furniture plan for the one or more components associated with the at least one of the one or more furniture products; and transmit control signals based on the furniture plan to cause a manufacturing equipment to implement the furniture plan, wherein implementing the furniture plan further comprises manufacturing the one or more components.

The invention relates to a method for producing objects, in particular motor vehicles, in an industrial production process, wherein a plurality of work processes is coordinated by a process control system, wherein the process control system exchanges data with at least one electronic communication device via a communication path, which electronic communication device is operated autonomously and independently of the process control system, wherein a user can enter data at the electronic communication device, which are then transmitted to the process control system as a change data set, and the process control system coordinates the production process anew on the basis of the received change data. The invention further relates to an installation for producing objects, in particular motor vehicles, to a telecommunication method, and to a computer program.

There is disclosed a system architecture for automated modification of computer program code for a manufacturing machine, comprising: an interface for receiving an identification of an item and at least one modification to be made to the item; a memory for storing templates of computer program code, the memory associating each template with an item; and a processor for adjusting at least one template associated with the item by modifying the at least one template with a value associated with the at least one modification.

An on-demand production system for accessories for use with electronic devices is configured to generate digital templates defining the design of the accessories and provide the digital templates to retail or other locations. The retail or other locations may receive access to the digital templates automatically and/or electronically within a week, a day, or even minutes, of the digital template being created. When a customer requests an accessory, the digital template may be accessed. Using an electronic production machine and a supply of stock material, the accessory can be cut, formed, printed, or otherwise produced based on instructions or designs of the digital template. The electronic production machine may automatically read the digital template to automate the production at a retail location. The electronic production machine may produce the accessory on-demand, and production of the accessory may be completed within two hours, or potentially within ten minutes, of a request.
