Material flow control (MFC) is a key element of production planning and control. The literature typically categorizes different MFC methods according to how MFC is realized. This distinction overlooks that MFC decisions can be subdivided into three independent tasks that are executed as orders progress through the system: (i) order generation, (ii) order release, and (iii) production authorization. MFC methods are typically designed for only one of these three tasks, which leaves a large part of the order flow uncontrolled. This study therefore not only provides a new categorization of MFC methods, but also argues for the simultaneous application (or the combining) of three different MFC methods for order generation, order release, and production authorization. To support this argument, the performance effects of an integrated MFC approach are evaluated. Findings show that each individual MFC method impacts different performance metrics, which can be explained by the presence of a hierarchy of workloads, where each workload level constrains the succeeding hierarchical level. Each MFC method has a main impact on a different workload. This has important implications for the design of MFC methods and extends recent literature on hierarchical production planning and control systems.

Applied Ergonomics
Production workers suffer from musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) due to excessive workloads that exceed the individual physical capabilities. In order to assess and subsequently reduce the risk to suffer from a MSD at a specific workplace, companies use ergonomic screening methods. However, the current approaches have two major downsides: Firstly, they do not take the individual worker and his/her capabilities into account. Applied thresholds for joint angles or physical loads are standard values that do not address physical limitations, such as age-related loss of flexibility or muscle strength. Secondly, the methods only provide a risk assessment that indicates which workplaces and/or working postures are ergonomically hazardous. Necessary workplace improvements are decoupled from the results and require extensive ergonomic knowledge. This paper presents a method that uses an individualized ergonomics analysis to improve workplaces according to individual needs and helps the industrial engineer to find necessary workplace improvements.

Dynamische Märkte, knappe Flächen und eine zunehmende Automatisierung haben die Bedingungen in der Fabrikplanung gewandelt und die Anwendbarkeit etablierter Methoden reduziert. Gerade in der frühen Phase der Fabrikplanung ist es erforderlich, die Flächenbedarfe auf Grundlage unvollständiger Informationen zuverlässig abzuschätzen. Der Beitrag präsentiert eine Methode zur Flächenbedarfsbestimmung in der Stückgutproduktion und validiert sie am Beispiel der Flugzeugindustrie.

... The desire to produce a unique product affects the number of excess product components, which increase in enterprises and often do not go into the production cycle. It is essential not only to maintain flexibility in production and meet the needs of the customer but also to be able to put surplus or residual components into production to reduce the costs of servicing warehouse balances [2][3][4]. ...

... As in our previous system iteration, we are designing the DAS as a mobile web application that runs on a tablet. This selection is in line with study results from Piontek et al. [17], who identified tablets as a particularly accepted and effective technology for DASs in aircraft production. Following the procedure model of automated visual inspection of Keferstein et al. [5] we divide the process of our assisted visual inspection ( Figure 2) into the essential sub-steps of defect localization (2+3), defect image acquisition (4), segmentation (5) and annotation (6) (classification and detailed description). ...

... Two approaches enable the data flow of manual processes into a DT and ensure a correct data set, namely, replacing or updating analog measuring equipment with smart tools transmitting measured values directly, e.g., via protocols like MQTT or Bluetooth (e.g., shown in [49] for assembly processes). A prerequisite for the successful integration of devices is a flexible software environment that, on the one hand, handles the heterogeneity of the accumulated data and, on the other hand, is able to integrate the results into the digitally modeled QA process. ...

... On the other hand, setup times for changing between the setup groups can be sequence-dependent or groupspecific ( Figure 1, case "I"), which means that the average setup time on the production machine can be reduced by a corresponding dispatching rule finding a suitable path in the so-called setup matrix (setup time reduction). [19,17,10] As an example, it can be seen in Figure 1 that the sequence formation C-B-A-(C) results in a total setup time of 57 units per cycle, while another order sequence leads to significantly longer setup times. For instance, the family sequence A-B-C-(A) would result in a setup time of 75 units per cycle. ...

... A complete model transformation is not always necessary. In certain cases, only information needs to be extracted from a system model, e.g. for the integration of design requirements in CAD or product architecture design [23]. This is particularly relevant for information that is used by multiple applications or transferred along the value chain and exchanged across multiple system models [24]. ...

The procedure requires comparatively few input parameters and enables effective scheduling on the level of the entire production. ...

... As digitization grows in importance and capability to serve all kinds of processes, shipyards around the world have started to adopt and implement digitalized solutions for many of their work processes (Jahn et al., 2020;Sánchez-Sotano et al., 2020;Sullivan et al., 2020;Von Lukas Uwe, 2010). Due to their assistive functionalities for the dominant manual work processes, e.g., step-bystep guidance in a work task, these solutions are often referred to as digital assistance systems (Hinrichsen & Bendzioch, 2019). ...
