Virtual workplace design for the value-added deployment of employees with restricted performance
Planning of a central production area and virtual workplace design for the value-added integration of employees with restricted performance into production.
Results:
- optimized ergonomics
- reduced production time
- effiecnt material provision
- shorter walk paths
"The ema Work Designer enables us to set up a complete assembly digitally. In this way, we create a better basis for planning and develop a common understanding of the process and equipment with the customer at an early stage. The software makes it possible to validate up to 90% of manual activities in assembly and, in our view, makes a very valuable contribution to the digitalization of assembly planning. Compared to other solutions, ema has a unique selling point."

"With the ema Work Designer we are able to plausibilize and validate assembly processes with regard to production time and ergonomics. Another significant advantage for process planning is the possibility of early consideration of employees with restricted performance. The visualization of work processes also provides us with a very good basis for discussion in cycle time meetings and 3P workshops."
