•Resolve Manufacturing issues happening during the Industrialization of new products with the help of the modeling tool-set that is available or in-development.
•Assess and minimize Yield risks by e.g. run a Conicity sensitivity study.
•Assess and minimize Waste risks by run Bladder fitment models and/or Cure modeling.
•Adopt extrusion equipment, splice bar and/or dies, for specific complex projects to improve compound flow.
•Use Big data tool, BrainCube, to support problem solving for Industrialization issues.
•Support the integration of manufacturing modeling tools in the tire production environment.
