AI solution finder – AI-Powered Knowledge Management for Industrial Engineering
Overview
The Toolbox Lean 4.0 is a comprehensive knowledge management tool designed for Industrial Engineering in manufacturing companies. It provides a structured collection of solution modules, including methods, technologies, and use cases. A key component is a set of nine technology briefs on Artificial Intelligence (AI), complemented by numerous practical use cases demonstrating AI applications.
Challenges
– Increased complexity in productivity management due to digital transformation
– Industrial Engineering requires modern, systematic problem-solving support
– The Toolbox Lean 4.0 serves as a valuable knowledge base with hundreds of solution modules, particularly in AI.
Solution: Identifying AI Applications with the Toolbox Lean 4.0
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are guided through a structured process by experts from Fraunhofer IPA. Starting with production-related challenges, they are systematically led to identify suitable AI solutions and corresponding example applications (use cases).
Report with recommendations and profiles of identified solution elements
The assessment is based on a five-step method by Fraunhofer IPA, carried out in a workshop format. Starting with production-related problems as inputs, companies are systematically led to identify suitable AI solutions and corresponding example applications (use cases).
