EKIMuPP Design of a digital and AI-assisted flexible assembly line to increase product and process innovation Innovation cycles are becoming increasingly shorter at the product and process level, making rapid integration into assembly a critical success factor for companies. The EKIMuPP research project aims to specifically increase the level of innovation by means of the integration of digital and AI-based systems. The project is dedicated to the development of an innovation-oriented assembly system that increases and optimizes the interaction of employees along the entire process chain through digital interaction capabilities. In addition, context-based training and support of operational employees is enabled by an assistance system. AI-based variant management will also be developed to manage complexity. The overall system will be developed in a modular fashion and its benefits will be demonstrated and evaluated in practice. For this purpose, typical products for manual assembly will be selected and the overall system will be evaluated in the company context. Furthermore, the functionalities of the overall system will be evaluated in a practical test with further product variants in order to prove its product-independent applicability. Contact persons: D.
