A roadmap to intelligent manufacturing with healthy humans in 2020
conference paper
From 17-19 May 2004 the international IMS (Intelligent Manufacturing Systems) Forum was held in Italy about global challenges in manufacturing. One of the presented papers was 'A roadmap to intelligent manufacturing with healthy humans in 2020'. A special interest group (SIG) of the IMS network of excellence defined a roadmap to stimulate health in future manufacturing. The base was a large European project (PSIM) on participative simulation and the background the members of the SIGs. All members had much experience in improving manufacturing work with special attention for the human health. A structured process was followed to arrive at a roadmap. The major conclusions are that the coming 5 years knowledge needs to be developed regarding guidelines for under load and self-control systems. Based on this research should be done in and with companies to test effects in 5-10 years from now. It will be demonstrated and applied in the following decennium. Regarding participatory design the process will be faster, because more knowledge is available. Regarding tools for networking and all day effects the process will be later, because more time for knowledge development is needed.
