Because of a high product and technology complexity, companies involve external partners in their research and development (R&D) processes. Interorganizational projects result, which represent temporary organizations. In these projects heterogenous organizations work closely together. Since project work is always teamwork, these projects face due to their characteristic’s major challenges on an organizational, relational, and content-related collaboration level. Thus, this paper raises the following research question: “How can a project team be supported on an organizational, relational, and content-related level in an interorganizational new product development setting?” To answer this research question, an explorative expert study was set up with two digital workshops using the interactive presentation tool Mentimeter. The results show that a cooperative innovation culture could support project teams on an organizational and relational level in the future in minimizing predominant problems. Moreover, it supports project teams for example in a functional communication. Furthermore, 18 values of a cooperative innovation culture result which are for example openness and transparency, risk and failure tolerance or respect. On a content-related level the results show that an adaptable tool which promotes creativity and collaboration method as well as content-related input support could be beneficial for problem-solving in an interorganizational new product development setting in the future. Because the tool can guide product developers through the process with suitable creativity and collaboration methods, can give content-related input and can enable interactive interchange on a table-top. Future research could mainly focus on the connection of the cooperative innovation culture and the tool since these potentially influence each other.
Different network architectures are being used to build remote laboratories. Historically, it has been difficult to integrate industrial control systems with higher level IT systems like enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution systems (MES), and manufacturing operations management (MOM). Getting these systems to communicate with one another has proven to be relatively difficult due to the absence of shared protocols between them. The Open Platform Communications United Architecture (OPC-UA) protocol was introduced as a remedy for this issue and is gaining popularity, but what if open-source protocols that are widely used in the IT industry could be used instead? This paper presents the development of an IT-Architecture for a cyber-physical industrial control systems laboratory that enables a seamless interconnection and integration of its elements. The architecture utilises Node-Red technology. Node-RED is an open-source programming platform developed by IBM that is focused on making it simple to link physical components, APIs, and web services. This cyber-physical laboratory is for learning principles of an industrial cascaded process control factory. Finally, this text will also discuss future work relating to digital twin (DT). A coupled tank system is selected as a teaching factory to illustrate a range of fluid control application in a typical chemical process factory.
A premise guaranteeing the successful interdisciplinary teamwork in product design is a mutual understanding of both professional and academic communities of the different design expertise and the role they play in the process. It appears that the open compound word industrial design is open to interpretation in European education. This ambiguity had a negative impact on the labour policies of some European countries, which have labelled some professions with incorrect names. Therefore, this terminological inconsistency urges for clarification within the design community. This work analyses the term industrial design, it presents historical developments in European industrial design education, in particular in Germany and in the Netherlands, and discusses how the education to the industrial design profession was positioned towards product development. This paper suggests that the causes for the observed lack of clarity about the meaning of the term industrial design are of an etymological and disciplinary kind. In order to act as a bridge between the professional and academic communities, universities should create the premises for interdisciplinary collaboration between designers and engineers through standardized communication, ultimately contributing for a sustainable future in both design and engineering education.
In dem Beitrag wurden exemplarisch Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, die mittels der Verknüpfung unterschiedlicher Technologien zur Steigerung von Genauigkeit und Effizienz bei der Bearbeitung genutzt werden können. Dabei sind Kenntnisse aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen erforderlich. Dies sind sowohl Bearbeitungs- und Prozesstechnologie, die Konstruktion von Maschinen, Vorrichtungen und Werkzeugen, sowie Mess- und Steuerungstechnik. Daneben sind auch neue Geschäftsmodelle und Technologien für die Nutzung und Verfügbarmachung von Daten und Informationen erforderlich.
Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigte die Anwendung eines Extended Kalman Filters für die Beurteilung des Verschleißzustandes von Rollenketten. Anders als in den üblicherweise eingesetzten signalbasierten Verfahren wurde damit ein modellbasierter Ansatz gewählt. Der Einsatz des Extended Kalman Filters ermöglicht die Schätzung von Parametern eines reduzierten Kettenmodells, das die Dynamik der einzigen Messgröße, nämlich des Drehmoments des antreibenden Motors näherungsweise nachbildet. Im Beitrag wurde dieses Verfahren auf Messdaten aus vier Dauerversuchen an Rollenketten eingesetzt und gezeigt, dass mit steigendem Verschleiß eine Änderung ausgewählter Modellparameter erfolgt.
Diese Vorgehensweise ist ein erster Ansatz, der durch weitere Forschungsarbeiten noch verbessert werden muss. In zukünftigen Forschungsarbeiten wird zusätzlich zur Parameterschätzung eine Prädiktion durchgeführt, um einen Schätzwert für die Restlebensdauer zu erhalten. Hierzu gibt es Ansätze in der Literatur, die auf das konkrete Problem angepasst werden müssen. Zudem muss die Modellierungssystematik so erweitert werden, dass Wissen über das Prozessverhalten in die Modellierung mit eingebracht wird, um die Aussagekraft der Ergebnisse sowie die Robustheit des Verfahrens bezüglich Betriebsparametern, Umgebungsbedingungen und Exemplarstreuungen zu verbessern.

Ein wesentliches Ziel der unter dem Schlagwort Industrie 4.0 gebündelten neuen Entwicklungen ist die Vernetzung intelligenter Komponenten in industriellen Anlagen, um Prozesse transparenter und effizienter zu gestalten. Ein weiteres Ziel ist das Condition Monitoring, d.h. die Überwachung des Zustands der Komponenten während der Laufzeit und die Abschätzung der Restlebensdauer, damit die gesamte Lebensdauer der Komponente ausgenutzt und Wartungsintervalle besser geplant werden können. Die Bewertung des Komponentenzustands erfolgt anhand von Messgrößen, die entweder durch zusätzlich in den Prozess eingebrachte Sensoren erfasst werden oder durch Prozessdaten, die in den Regel- und Steuereinrichtungen verfügbar sind. Diese Messdaten werden ausgewertet und das Ergebnis wird dem Anwender angezeigt.
Der vorliegende Beitrag gibt einen kurzen Überblick über verwendete Messgrößen sowie verwendete Auswerteverfahren. Darüber hinaus wird ein Verfahren erläutert, das die Schwierigkeiten bei der Beurteilung der üblicherweise verwendeten Frequenzspektren vermeidet.
Gamification, the use of game elements for non-gaming purposes, may just make a huge impact on education, a contribution the world in general and South Africa in particular, desperately needs. In today’s fast-paced work environment, there is not only a severe skills shortage, but also a great need for graduates with practical knowledge - students that are not purely “book smart”. Didactic teaching habits have created an education realm in which reciting facts is more often than not what gets students to pass. Learning factories are physical, operational factories that serve as exemplary and realistic hands-on learning environments and provide an important step towards more industry-prepared graduates. Top universities around the world are establishing such environments and are showing superb results. This paper explores the potential benefit of applying gamification in such a setting to enhance the learning environment even further, and provide opportunities for training otherwise difficult to teach topics, such as shop floor management.
During the first years of their employment, the graduates are a liability to industry. The employer goes an extra mile to bridge the gap between university-exiting and profitable employment of engineering graduates. Unfortunately some cannot take this risk. Given this scenario, this paper presents a learning factory approach as a platform for the application of knowledge so as to develop the required engineering competences in South African engineering graduates before they enter the labour market. It spells out the components of a Stellenbosch University Learning Factory geared towards production of engineering graduates with the required industrial skills. It elaborates on the didactics embedded in the learning factory environment, tailor-made to produce engineers who can productively contribute to the growth of the industry upon exiting the university.
Increasingly volatile market conditions and manufacturing environments combined with a rising demand for highly personalized products, the emergence of new technologies like cyber-physical systems and additive manufacturing as well as an increasing cross-linking of different entities (Industrie 4.0) will result in fundamental changes of future work and logistics systems. The place of production, the logistical network and the respective production system will underlie the requirements of constant changes and therefore sources and sinks of logistical networks have to obey the versatility of (cyber-physical) production systems. To cope with the arising complexity to control and monitor changeable production and logistics systems, decentralized control systems are the mean of choice since centralized systems are pushed to their limits in this regard. This paradigm shift will affect the overall concept under which production and logistics is planned, managed and controlled and how companies interact and collaborate within the emerging value chains by using dynamic methods to generate and execute the created network and to allocate available resources to fulfill the demand for customized products. In this field of research learning factories, like the ESB Logistics Learning Factory at ESB Business School (Reutlingen University), provide a great potential as a risk free test bed to develop new methods and technical solutions, to investigate new technologies regarding their practical use and to transfer the latest state of knowledge and specific competences into the training of students and professionals. Keeping with these guiding principles ESB Business School is transferring its existing production system into a cyber-physical production system to investigate innovative solutions for the design of human-machine collaboration and technical assistance systems as wells as to develop decentralized control methods for intralogistics systems following the requirements of changeable work systems including the respective design of dynamic inbound and outbound logistic networks.
