Digitized manufacturing processes enable individualized production. A low defect rate is particularly important for e-textiles, since defects in the smart additional functions in textiles are often only detected at the end of the value chain. As a result, textile wearables are very expensive and there is no longer any added value to non-textile wearables such as smartwatches. The German Institutes of Textile and Fiber Research Denkendorf (DITF) are developing a global "Industry 4.0 approach" for process management that starts with yarn production and extends through all process chains.
