Increased Productivity in Engineer-to-Order Production

Digital assistance between design and production in shipbuilding
Jan Sender, David Jericho ORCID Icon, Konrad Jagusch
In engineer-to-order production systems, design and production processes are often carried out simultaneously to achieve shorter throughput times. Shipbuilding frequently adopts this approach. In practice, whilst this may lead to time savings, it can also result in efficiency losses. This article analyzes the causes of these inefficiencies and, as a counteractive measure, develops digital assistance systems for integration in the shipbuilding process chain. Digital assistance systems are based on a digital shadow of the shipbuilding process.

Real-Time-Capable Information Flow in Shipbuilding Pipe Production

Real-Time-Capable Information Flow in Shipbuilding Pipe Production

Ein System zur datenbasierten Abbildung des Produktionsprozesses
Konrad Jagusch, Jan Sender, Wilko Flügge
Inadequate communication with media discontinuities makes it difficult to implement simulataneous engineering. Missing process data prevent data-based control measures and the layout of design adaptations to unfinished components. Therefore, the subject of this article is the description of a system for real-time data acquisition and the digitalization of the information flow in shipbuilding.

Highly valuable goods are usually customized to the specific needs of the customer. It is therefore essential to integrate the customer in the important decisions during the engineering phase. This article introduces a Augmented Reality solution to design and plan variants on-site together with the customer. This solution was tested on a real example, a retrofit of an emission reducing technology on a ship.
