: But these are not tailormade or made to measure. Perhaps the asker could confirm the context.

bespoke
Usually the term applied to software, when it is written to the client's specifications.
So "It is a bespoke system"

customised
An option.
The term "a medida" is usually "custom/customised" (customized in US spelling) when referring to software.

** los racks a medida ** ??
The one I found with "a medida" here states:
https://www.steelcogroup.com/download_archive/DC-PD-02-CSSD ...
Especialmente diseñado para las CE donde el tiempo es crítico. Se estructura en extensiones de módulos flexibles que puedan adaptarse a cualquier diseño de CE. Con ello, se mejora la productividad y eficacia del personal, se ahorra tiempo y consumo energético. El sistema ATS se mueve a través del frontal del lado de carga de las lavadoras desinfectoras, y sucesivamente se van cargando ** los racks a medida ** que van quedando lavadoras disponibles. Los ciclos se activan automáticamente de acuerdo a las especificaciones individuales de cada rack.

: Customised racks are indeed a thing, but in the reference text, "a medida que" just translates as "as" (the racks are loaded as the machines become available).

Thank Neil. Without confirmation of the text I found (I still don't know) and the asker's non-reponse, it was all a huge buck up! LOL. Again, thank you so much and continue to stay safe.

Discussion
I have searched the document and nowhere does it say that it is a "sistema a medida"; What is says on page 6 is "Consumo programado
y medido de agua, detergentes y químicos". Perhaps your own explanation is faulty, or I have missed the word, but I did look for "medida". Can you clarify please? On what page of the above link is the term or phrase you seek? Regards.
