Der Sondermaschinenbau ist in Deutschland ein beachtlicher Innovationsmotor. Er beeinflusst zudem die Produktindividualisierung – einen der maßgeblichen Trends im Maschinenbau. In der wissenschaftlichen Literatur werden die aktuellen Herausforderungen im Sondermaschinenbau nur an wenigen Stellen thematisiert. Eine Aufarbeitung dieses Forschungsgebiets ist insbesondere mit Blick auf das weltweite Kundenverlangen, in immer kürzeren Zeitabständen individualisierte, qualitativ hochwertige und kostengünstig hergestellte Produkte oder Systemlösungen bereitzustellen, dringend geboten. Nach einer Kategorisierung des Sondermaschinenbaus werden Forschungsfelder vorgestellt, in den Produktentstehungsprozess eingeordnet und anschließend drei Forschungsansätze veranschaulicht.   The industry of special purpose machinery is a significant driving force for innovation in Germany. Additionally, it has an impact on one of the key trends in engineering, the product individualization. In scientific literature current challenges in special machinery are rarely considered. A workup of the field is urgently required, in particular due to global customer demand. Customers demand a supply of individualized, high quality and inexpensive products or system solutions in continuously decreasing intervals. Following, a categorizing of special machinery and specific research fields are presented. Concluding, three research approaches are presented and classified in the product development process.

Regulatory Affairs

In many FDA-regulated companies, the marketing and business development departments have a quietly antagonistic relationship with their quality and regulatory affairs colleagues. While compliance is supposed to ensure that a safe, efficacious and high-quality new product reaches the marketplace, marketing and business development executives are left to grumble: how are consumers – much less partners and investors – supposed to learn about and get excited about a new product if their work is so constricted? This paper suggests that there is a way to turn compliance from the millstone around Marketing's neck to the whetstone that helps hone a sharper competitive edge. HydroGel Burn Products tackled that question by shifting quality and regulatory affairs further upstream in their product development process to a point where to be overly restrictive was to stop development altogether; in other words, to a point where the focus had to be on finding a way around obstacles. The results pleased investors, partners, customers and marketers alike.

AbstractIn order to meet the quality standards required in today's product development process, the designer must be able to draw on the knowledge contained in standards at all times. However, in today's digital work environment, these are usually only available in paper or PDF form. To support the designer during the product development process, a research project examine how knowledge from standards can be made available digitally and integrated into his working environment. This paper presents a concept with a RESTful service as a central knowledge base, which provides knowledge in the form of microservices. The implementation is carried out using welding assemblies as an example. To achieve the high-quality requirements and to implement them, the standard contents had to be prepared in a machine-interpretable and cross system way.

Innovation Analysis

The innovative value chain is the organic unity of the concept of innovation and the value chain. It emphasizes that all units of the value chain coordinate to increase in value and optimize the system so as to realize the w ho le innovative benefits. Based on the theory of technological innovation, this paper analyzes the traditional product development process and sums up its drawbacks; then constructs the model of enterprises’ innovative value chain and puts forward that what the enterprise's innovative value chain emphasizes is taking the knowledge flows as the intrinsic power class, taking the service flow as the foundation, taking the value increment as the goal, taking the customer demand as the guidance and application through the innovation analysis of enterprise service activity flow.

Simulation Results

Product development is dominated by reducing time and costs, which is often contradictory to the required high quality of product properties. Therefore, the demand for efficient tools, which support the product development process, is rising. Virtual Reality (VR) can be used as such a tool. The interactive presentation of simulation results using (extended) VR technologies is very helpful — especially if both the simulation tools and the VR presentation are multimodal. Due to the increasing importance of acoustics and the expectation of an improving presence in VR environments the sense of perception should be extended. For this a special audio-visual VR-system and audio-visual models are necessary. For the current investigations a spatial, interactive auralisation-system is used. The main focus of the paper lies on the state dependent reproduction of the acoustical behavior using a real-time capable, network-based sound-server. The developed methods are explained in the paper by an automotive example.

An accurate understanding of users' needs is essential for the development of innovative products. This article presents an exploratory method of user centered research in the context of the design process of technological products, conceived from the demands of a large information technology company. The method is oriented - but not restricted - to the initial stages of the product development process, and uses low-resolution prototypes and simulations of interactions, allowing users to imagine themselves in a future context through fictitious environments and scenarios in the ambit of ideation. The method is effective in identifying the requirements of the experience related to the product’s usage and allows rapid iteration on existing assumptions and greater exploration of design concepts that emerge throughout the investigation.
