The necessary Numerical Control (NC) programs to manufacture the parts are mostly written in standardized G-code. An a priori evaluation of the energy demand of CNC-based machine processes opens up the possibility of scheduling multiple jobs according to balanced energy consumption over a production period. Due to this, we present a combined Machine Learning (ML) and Job-Shop-Scheduling (JSS) approach to evaluate G-code for a CNC-milling process with respect to the energy demand of each G-command. The ML model training data are derived by the Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) method facing the main G-code operations G00, G01, and G02. The resulting energy demand for each job enhances a JSS algorithm to smooth the energy demand for multiple jobs, as peak power consumption needs to be avoided due to its expense.

The determination of the OEE is oftentimes not transparent in companies, due to the heterogeneous data sources and manual interference. Furthermore, there is a difference in present guidelines to calculate the OEE. Due to a big amount of sensor data in Cyber Physical Production Systems, Machine Learning methods can be used in order to detect several elements of the OEE by a trained model. Changeover time is one crucial aspect influencing the OEE, as it adds no value to the product. Furthermore, changeover processes are fulfilled manually and vary from worker to worker. They always have their own procedure to conduct a changeover of a machine for a new product or production lot. Hence, the changeover time as well as the process itself vary. Thus, a new Machine Learning based concept for identification and characterization of machine set-up actions is presented. Here, the issue to be dealt with is the necessity of human and machine interaction to fulfill the entire machine set-up process. Because of this, the paper shows the use case in a real production scenario of a small to medium size company (SME), the derived data set, promising Machine Learning algorithms, as well as the results of the implemented Machine Learning model to classify machine set-up actions.

NC-programs are mostly written in standardized G-code. Evaluating CNC-controlled manufacturing processes before their real application is advantageous due to resource efficiency. One dimension is the estimation of the energy demand of a part manufactured by an NC-program, e.g. to discover optimization potentials. In this context, this paper presents a Machine Learning (ML) approach to assess G-code for CNC-milling processes from the perspective of the energy demand of basic G-commands. We propose Latin Hypercube Sampling as an efficient method of Design of Experiments to train the ML model with minimum experimental effort to avoid costly setup and implementation time of the model training and deployment.

The impact of stress and stress management on entrepreneurs’ mental health and performance JF - Frontiers in Psychology N2 - Introduction: Entrepreneurs play a central role in economic and social stability, yet the start-up rate in Germany has declined in recent years, possibly due to the stress associated with entrepreneurial endeavors. Stressors such as financial uncertainty and time pressure are prevalent among entrepreneurs and negatively affect their psychological well-being. However, research on stress management strategies among self-employed individuals remains limited. Methods: This pilot study conducted a quantitative analysis with 117 self-employed participants in Germany. The study focused on typical entrepreneurial work demands and selected stress coping mechanisms. Results: The analysis revealed a significant correlation between quantitative demands and mental exhaustion. Furthermore, a high positive correlation between presenteeism and workload suggests that presenteeism may partially explain the variance in workload. These findings underscore how high job demands can lead to self-endangering behaviors that are detrimental to mental health. Discussion: Although no significant moderating effect of proactive coping on the relationship between job demands and mental exhaustion was observed, significant negative correlations between proactive coping and both job demands and mental exhaustion suggest a potential protective role of proactive coping against work-related stress. This study highlights the importance of understanding stress coping strategies among self-employed individuals and their impact on entrepreneurial success and mental well-being. Further research in this area is warranted to develop effective interventions to support the well-being and productivity of self-employed individuals in Germany.

Hence, the knowledge about the energy intensity of new process technologies as metal printing becomes increasingly crucial. Therefore, data about the energy intensity of entire process chains allow a detailed assessment of the life cycle costs and environmental impact of metal printed parts. As metal printing with Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is applied from rapid prototyping to serial manufacturing processes more and more, sustainability data are useful to support a valid scale-up scenario and energetic improvements of the 3D-printing machinery as well as peripheral aggregates used in the process chain. The contribution aims to increase the transparency of the LPBF process chain in terms of its energy consumption. Therefore a generalized model to assess sustainability aspects of metal printed parts is derived. For this purpose, the LPBF process chain with the essential pre-, main- and post-processes is evaluated regarding its energy intensity. Here, the sub-processes, for example wet and dry cleaning of the printer, sieving of the metal powder or sand-blasting of the part are analyzed as well as the main printing process. Based on the derived experimental data from an installed, industry-like process chain, a model is created, which tends to generalize the experimental findings to evaluate other metal printed parts and process chain variants in terms of their energy intensity.

In this study, we consider a production system with parallel machines and there are many rounds of reentrants during the production processes, and can be regarded as a reentrant flow shop process (RFS). In most RFS systems, the release of jobs is a push type without considering the WIP in each layer of reentrance. To resolve the excessive WIP in an RFS system, we consider the theory of constraints (TOC) and implement the DBR (drum, bottleneck and rope) to model RFS scheduling and to define appropriate buffer sizes at the CCR stations of diverse reentrant layers. Design/methodology/approach STS: We obtain production data of a type of semiconductor chip where the photolithography process is the most frequent reentrant. We designed nine scenarios based on the current RFS of the case company by applying the TOC and considering the time differences in parallel machines. A simulation model for the photolithography process was established using AutoMod simulation. Thirty simulation runs were performed for the mean and standard deviation. The goal is to identify the best scenario among the nine proposed ones. Findings: The simulation results demonstrated that Scenario 9, which involves dynamic buffers and assigning higher priority to products with more processing reentrance layers, achieved the highest throughput of finished products. The throughput of finished products in Scenario 9 is 22% higher than in the base scenario. It also shows improvements in maximum product stack-up and input-output ratio compared to the base scenario. Value: The paper studies dispatching rules for reentrant flow lines having parallel machines with data from the semiconductor industry, and this type of production system is common for producing a wide range of electronic devices. With limited buffer sizes on the shop floor, the number of WIPs is significant, especially for reentrant flow shops, to avoid being clogged with too many WIPs. Implementing DBR modeling from TOC, the nine scenarios demonstrate the effects of controlling buffer sizes on system performances. Research limitations/implications: The nine scenarios are designed based on the case company situations and may not be readily implemented in other industries. Moreover, the DBR modeling of the buffer sizes and CCR station schedule control should also be adjusted when employed in other applications.

The task of immersive productive assistance systems is to provide information contextually to the industrial user. Therefore, it is essential to explore the factors and effects that influence the visibility and the corresponding quality of this information. Caused by the technical limitations of additive display technology and application conditions, this new approach has evaluated the immersive visibility of Landolt Rings in various greyscales against ambient illuminance levels on different industrial-like surfaces, coupled with and without a white virtual background. For this purpose, an empirical study in a within-subjects-design with full factorial experimental design (n=23) was conducted on Microsoft HoloLens 2 hardware. The mean values of the main effects indicate that visibility is significantly affected by ambient illuminance (best results at lower level), greyscale (best results at middle level) and virtual background (best results with background). In contrast, the choice of surface is shown to have no statistically significant effect on visibility, however it affects the response time. Additionally, cross-interactions of variables were analyzed and lead to a design recommendation for immersive industrial applications.

To accept uncertainties as a challenge and to recognize opportunities for development, well-educated and resilient founders are needed who can foster innovation and sustainable development within society and the economy. The majority of today’s entrepreneurs have an academic background. Hence, institutions for higher education need to provide comprehensive educational offerings and support initiatives to train and sensitize future entrepreneurs. Therefore, since 2013, agile teaching formats have been developed in our project at a Bavarian university of applied sciences. In two stages, we founded a limited company for hands-on experimentation with entrepreneurship and also conceptualized an elective course and an annual founders’ night. Based on a theoretical model and continuous teaching evaluations, we adjusted the individual modules to suit the target group. The objective is to promote the acquisition of key competencies and exert a positive influence on the startup quotient in the region. There are six startups by students who can be traced back to our project. This indicates that a target-group-oriented educational program encourages motivation and awareness of entrepreneurial thinking and action among students.

Dadurch ist die Wertschöpfungskette anfällig für externe Störungen, die unter anderem durch den Klimawandel ausgelöst werden. Zugleich sind die Erwärmungsraten in der bayerischen Region derzeit deutlich höher als im bundesweiten Durchschnitt. Die Entwicklung von strategischen Maßnahmen zur Klimaanpassung ist demnach unerlässlich, um die unternehmensspezifischen Risiken des Klimawandels zu antizipieren und zu minimieren. Die Klimaanpassung ist in vielen kommunalen, wirtschaftlichen und gesellschaftlichen Bereichen eine der größten Herausforderungen der Gegenwart. Die vorliegende Regionalstudie beabsichtigt daher eine Abgrenzung der Verhältnisse und Wechselwirkungen des globalen Klimawandels, der Auswirkungen in der bayerischen Region Mainfranken sowie der aufkommenden Veränderungsbedarfe für gesellschaftliche, politische und wirtschaftliche Akteure. Ein umfassender grundlagentheoretischer Überblick dient zunächst der Einordnung wichtiger Ansatzpunkte aus politischer Perspektive und stellt Angebote für Wirtschaftsakteure dar. Ferner werden die wirtschaftlichen Ausprägungen nach Handwerksbetrieben und Unternehmen differenziert, sowie deren Rolle für Wachstum und Innovation in der Region, als auch in Bezug auf den Klimawandel und die erforderliche Anpassung aufgezeigt. Die Ergebnisse einer quantitativen Erhebung veranschaulichen, dass neben der Wirtschaftlichkeit und physischen Ressourcen, menschliche Faktoren zur Erhöhung der organisationalen Klimaresilienz beitragen. Um als wirtschaftliche Organisationen einen adäquaten Umgang mit dem Klimawandel zu finden, sind bspw. zunächst Führungskräfte aufgefordert einen systemischen Ansatz mit umfangreichen Maßnahmen zu Klimaschutz und Klimaanpassung zu entwickeln, auf ihre Wirksamkeit zu erproben und ganzheitlich zu integrieren. Mit der vorliegenden Regionalstudie wird deutlich, dass neben dem Klimaschutz, der Reduzierung klimaschädlicher Treibhausgasemissionen, die Klimaanpassung ein unverzichtbarer Aspekt ist, um die wirtschaftliche Effizienz zu erhalten und sogar zu erhöhen, indem die veränderten Anforderungen als Entwicklungschancen wahrgenommen werden.

The transformation to smart processes in manufacturing leads to a higher deployment of data-driven approaches to support the worker. Upcoming technologies in this context are oftentimes based on the gesture-recognition, − monitoring or – control. This contribution systematically reviews gesture or motion capturing technologies and the utilization of gesture data in the ergonomic assessment, gesture-based robot control strategies as well as the identification of COVID-19 symptoms. Subsequently, two applications are presented in detail. First, a holistic human-centric optimization method for line-balancing using a novel indicator – ErgoTakt – derived by motion capturing. ErgoTakt improves the legacy takt-time and helps to find an optimum between the ergonomic evaluation of an assembly station and the takt-time balancing. An optimization algorithm is developed to find the best-fitting solution by minimizing a function of the ergonomic RULA-score and the cycle time of each assembly workstation with respect to the workers’ ability. The second application is gesture-based robot-control. A cloud-based approach utilizing a generally accessible hand-tracking model embedded in a low-code IoT programming environment is shown.

This can lead to time consuming procedures. Data-driven approaches such as Machine Learning can support decision processes with trained and validated models to predict certain output parameter. In a multifaceted process chain of material synthesis of electrochemical materials and their characterization, Machine Learning has a huge potential to shorten development processes. Based on this, the contribution presents a novel approach to utilize data derived from Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) of SiO_2 matrix materials for battery anodes with Neural Networks. Here, we use SAXS as an intermediate, high-throughput method to characterize sol–gel based porous materials. A multi-step-method is presented where a Feed Forward Net is connected to a pretrained autoencoder to reliably map parameters of the material synthesis to the SAXS curve of the resulting material. In addition, a direct comparison shows that the prediction error of Neural Networks can be greatly reduced by training each output variable with a separate independent Neural Network.

A1 - Schmitt, Jan A1 - Kaupp, Tobias T1 - Towards Dynamic Human–Robot Collaboration: A Holistic Framework for Assembly Planning JF - Electronics N2 - The combination of human cognitive skills and dexterity with the endurance and repeatability of robots is a promising approach to modern assembly. However, efficiently allocating tasks and planning an assembly sequence between humans and robots is a manual, complex, and time-consuming activity. This work presents a framework named “Extract–Enrich–Assess–Plan–Review” that facilitates holistic planning of human–robot assembly processes. The framework automatically Extracts data from heterogeneous sources, Assesses the suitability of each assembly step to be performed by the human or robot, and Plans multiple assembly sequence plans (ASP) according to boundary conditions. Those sequences allow for a dynamic adaptation at runtime and incorporate different human–robot interaction modalities that are Synchronized, Cooperative, or Collaborative. An expert remains in the loop to Enrich the extracted data, and Review the results of the Assess and Plan steps with options to modify the process. To experimentally validate this framework, we compare the achieved degree of automation using three different CAD formats. We also demonstrate and analyze multiple assembly sequence plans that are generated by our system according to process time and the interaction modalities used.

Current practice in manual assembly lines is to balance them using the takt-time of each workstation and harmonize it. However, this approach mostly does not include ergonomic aspects and thus it may lead to workforce musculoskeletal disorders, extended leaves, and demotivation. This paper presents a holistic human-centric optimization method for line balancing using a novel indicator ̶ the ErgoTakt. ErgoTakt improves the legacy takt-time and helps to find an optimum between the ergonomic evaluation of an assembly station and its balance in time. The authors used a custom version of the ErgoSentinel Software and a Microsoft Kinect depth camera to perform online and real-time ergonomic assessment. An optimization algorithm is developed to find the best-fitting solution by minimizing a function of the ergonomic RULA-value and the cycle time of each assembly workstation with respect to the worker's ability. The paper presents the concept, the system-setup and preliminary evaluation of an assembly scenario. The results demonstrate that the new approach is feasible and able to optimize an entire manual assembly process chain in terms of both, economic aspects of a well-balanced production line as well as the ergonomic issue of long term human healthy work.
