  text: As the number of variations increases and batch sizes grow smaller, it can
    be difficult to fulfill quality and productivity requirements in manual assembly,
    as employees must record, process and interpret more information, then convert
    that information into action. Conventional instruction manuals in the form of
    text, tables or drawings quickly reach their limits. Innovative assistance systems
    are essential for keeping up with these changes, as they instruct and support
    employees in line with their specific situations. The goal of this article is
    to use a case study to illustrate the problems with providing information in manual
    assembly, and to suggest a potential solution in the form of an informational
    assistance system. The company considered in the case study stands out for its
    large production areas where complex, customer-specific truck bodies are mounted
    manually.

  text: Product variety and short product life cycles are characteristic features
    of modern assembly systems. When variety gets very high, assembly processes usually
    become very complex, leading to time losses, human errors, and other negative
    impacts of system performance. In order to prevent such performance declines different
    informational assistance systems become part of manual assembly systems, offering
    additional instructions concerning handling and insertion. Otherwise, such systems
    can result in additional cognitive load rather than decreasing it. Using mobile
    physiological measures like heart rate variability (HRV) and eye movements just
    in time changes of overall cognitive load are detectable. As expected, these data
    indicate increases of mental workload when task demands are becoming more complex.
    Practical and theoretical concerns, limitations and chances will be discussed.

  text: The maintenance of a tool for injection molding or forming is usually accompanied
    by its disassembly and assembly. The duration of the assembly activities is often
    a large part of the total activity time for the maintenance of the tool. The degree
    of performance of the employees in the execution of these disassembly and assembly
    activities is often low. In addition, allowances occur (e.g. searching for work
    equipment). At the Industrial Engineering Lab of the Ostwestfalen-Lippe University
    of Applied Sciences, a prototype of an assistance system was developed to support
    the assembly activities in toolmaking. With the help of this system, the operator
    is guided step by step through the assembly process. The economic potential of
    the system exists in the reduction of training times, the avoidance of assembly
    errors and the increase of labor productivity.
