A Novel Method for Agile Planning Production Systems based on 3D Digitalization

摘要

In comparison to the development planning of factories integrations gain in importance. The shortening of product lifecycles and the derivatization lead to more critical ramp-up situations in existing production systems. In general, the product creation process is divided into disciplines and characterized by a sequential order of the individual phases. The definition of fixed milestones impedes the interaction between product design, production planning, operations and their sub-disciplines. Layouts with uncertain currentness and accuracy aggravate integration tasks into existing production systems. We analyze the requirements for a novel planning approach. An innovative method based on the 3D digitalization of existing production systems is proposed. This method abandons a strictly sequential approach and relies on an agile process instead.
