Lectra helps furniture company move towards smart-factory vision
Leather bed manufacturer De Rucci has chosen Lectra’s virtual prototyping and development solution, DesignConcept, and a Versalis leather cutting solution to strengthen customisation capabilities.

The Chinese company, which was launched in 2004 and operates more than 2,000 showrooms, is shifting its focus towards a manufacturer-direct business model, which connects the consumer directly to the manufacturer. 

It says a ‘smart’ factory will deliver significant advantages in terms of customisation capability, better product quality and improved efficiency and has begun investing in “Industry 4.0-ready technology”.

Yao Ji Qing, CEO of De Rucci, said: “In line with our strategic vision and the Made in China 2025 plan, we are looking to revamp and invigorate our manufacturing processes with innovation-driven development and cutting technologies.“
