The Challenge Days are multi-day sessions where multidisciplinary teams work together on real-life manufacturing cases. The focus is on tolerances, manufacturability, and costs finding the right balance between precision and functionality (“fit for purpose”)and improving communication and collaboration across the supply chain. During these Challenge Days, we are building a community of engineers who share knowledge, develop standards, and collectively future-proof the Dutch manufacturing industry. This is a unique opportunity for your employees to work directly with ASML and peers across the chain on meaningful improvements.
