Abstract:
This paper introduces a model-based approach for the offer phase in special-purpose machinery, focusing on simplifying customer requirements, rapid solution design, and cross-domain interaction. A developed flexible configuration enables an efficient workflow, even without specific expertise, managing variance and enabling in-depth customization. It serves as the basis for post-order planning and is demonstrated in collaboration with a special-purpose machine manufacturer of the furniture industry. The conclusion discusses future steps in utilizing artificial intelligence.
