Abstract

In assembly, reworking stations are often barely automated work places, where no technical equipment supports the worker, validates the process execution or documents process results. However, worker assistance systems are used to guide and support the worker through manual assembly. Nevertheless, the concept of providing information to the worker is limited to screen based output media and assistance systems are just compatible to supplier selected devices. The objective of the presented research and development in this paper is an interactive worker assistance system which combines qualification-based worker support and intelligent process validation especially for rework stations. Beside the worker assistance system, a planning environment is developed for an efficient generation of work plans and content for the worker assistance system.
