For all entrepreneurs who want to produce faster, cheaper and more sustainably and achieve better quality through digital solutions
What is SMITZH?
SMITZH supports the West Holland manufacturing industry and its technology suppliers in the application of Smart Manufacturing. The joint offer of eight field labs specialising in technologies such as 3D printing, big data and robotics can help many companies find the technology needed to produce products competitively, even in small production runs or single units. Smart Manufacturing enables firms to produce more at lower costs with their current staff levels while improving quality and shortening delivery times.
What’s in it for me?
SMITZH offers practical and financial support to companies in the province of Zuid-Holland willing to invest in Smart Manufacturing. This involves, for example, providing workshops and consultancy for strategy and implementation as well as facilitating skills development and commercial and technical feasibility studies. We also help with setting up projects in the production chain and enable technical developments.
If you are facing a challenge in the field of Smart Manufacturing, do not hesitate to contact us.
What are the possibilities?
Part of our budget is provided by Rotterdam-The Hague Metropolitan Region and the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy. Financial assistance is available to companies via a voucher system.
You may acquire a voucher if you want to research into applying an existing Smart Manufacturing technology within your company. Vouchers are also available for testing the technical and financial feasibility of a potentially relevant new technology in a manufacturing process.
