In recent years, there has been an increasing transition towards the Industry 5.0 paradigm, which focuses on technology and sustainability but also on the resilience and human-centricity of the production and logistics processes. These changes require investment in equipment, process change, and new skills. To avoid the mismatch between the skills required by industry and the skills offered by university courses, recently, learning factories (LFs) have been spread worldwide, aiming at promoting hand-on learning approaches to manufacturing, logistics and technological processes. This paper illustrates how LFs can support the development of contents and competencies useful in the transition to Industry 5.0 in the industrial engineering courses. Starting from the description of a LF installed in Italy, this study presents a systematisation of the contents that can be addressed by adopting LF in the design of learning modules specifically facing the requirements and skills of the different Industry 5.0 areas.

Fuertes, Juan J., González-Herbón, Raúl, Rodríguez-Ossorio, José R., González-Mateos, Guzmán, Alonso, Serafín, and Morán, Antonio
- Abstract
Industrial digitization is currently a great challenge which involves continuous advances in technologies such as automation, robotics, internet of things, cloud computing, big data, virtual and augmented reality or cybersecurity. Only those companies able to adapt and with qualified workers will be competitive. Therefore, it is necessary to design new environments to train students and workers in these enabling technologies. In this paper, a set of guidelines is proposed to develop a demonstration model on Industry 4.0. Following these guidelines, an existing manufacturing industrial system, based on an electro-pneumatic cell for classifying pieces, is updated to the Industry 4.0 paradigm. The result is an Industry 4.0 demonstration model where enabling technologies are added in an integrated way. In this manner, students do not only train in each technology, but also understand the interactions between them. In the academic year 2020/21, this demonstration model has been used by engineering students in a subject of a master's degree. Impressions and comments from students about the structure and management of the environment, as well as the influence on their learning process are collected and discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

digitalization ,digital transformation ,learning factories ,SMEs ,volatile business environment ,Technology - Abstract
SMEs are currently confronted with major challenges such as increasing uncertainty and volatility. In order to face these challenges, agility and digitalization can be implemented. Both concepts bring about numerous opportunities and new competency requirements. Currently, there are few scientifically based, practical training courses that focus on digitization and/or agility. The aim of this paper is to provide a roadmap for the development of the training concept. In this training, participants will be able to acquire theoretical content on a learning platform in a flexible way and they will be able to apply this knowledge in a learning factory. Based on a literature overview, requirements for such a training and the necessary skills in a digital, volatile business environment will be given.

In the recent past, a vibrant debate emerged about talent management and the set of skills and competencies the future employees must possess to meet current and future market needs. Moreover, the lack of engineering students' professional competencies and their inability to correlate and apply the theoretical knowledge they acquire during their studies in practical contexts, when they enter the labour market, lead to an investment in action-oriented learning and experiential learning. In this context, the learning factory concept is being put into practice by universities and companies to equip students and employees with the demanded needs. In this paper, an Industry-University collaboration between Renault company and the University of Valladolid is presented, centred in the development of a learning factory devoted to the learning and practicing of lean manufacturing through a set of training courses offered to engineering students and professionals. The lean factory characteristics as well as the learning process and learning results achieved are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Petrusch, Natalie, Schliephack, Wolf, and Kohl, Holger
- Abstract
Shortening product life cycles and increasing, global competition lead to the necessity for companies to become flexible and able to change. The successful conduction of change projects depends to a large extent on the understanding and cooperation of the operating people. The acquisition of knowledge and thus of competence at all levels is of fundamental importance for this. Learning Factories are one of the most sustainable concepts in this respect. Concerning the industrial application, however, Learning Factories require high investment costs and are relatively inflexible in respect to their dedicated facilities and their learning content. This reveals a connection between the success of a Learning Factory in an industrial context and its mobility. In order to be able to evaluate approaches towards the mobility design of Learning Factories more precisely, the decisive drivers for mobility are identified. The assessment of these drivers with regard to the extent of influence on mobility, but also the critical consideration of possible limits, lead to an evaluation model for the mobility design of Learning Factories. Subsequently, this model is tested by applying it to a successfully operating Learning Factory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BOLOGNA process (European higher education) , *OUTCOME-based education , *ENGINEERING education , *CURRICULUM , *QUALITATIVE research - Abstract
The article discusses the challenges and the potential approaches of competence-based programmes for higher education institutions, starting at their inception in the Bologna process. It focuses particularly on curriculum transformation and implementation of action-orientated learning concepts. Consequently, the article takes stock of recent learning factory approaches in Germany and identifies the gap between research and practice. It presents a new approach to apply a concept of competence and the corresponding didactical design, which has been implemented and evaluated in a learning factory run by the Center for Industrial Productivity at the Technical University of Darmstadt. The presented insights are based on multiple studies outlining curricular and methodological implementations of the competency model and its didactical framework. Furthermore, specific examples of application, qualitative results, and conclusions regarding two third-party funded projects will be laid out in detail. The article concludes by summarizing the findings related to future challenges for higher education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

INDUSTRY 4.0 , *INFORMATION & communication technologies for development - Abstract
The movement to digitally transform Saudi Arabia in all sectors has already begun under the focused "Vision 2030" programme. Consequently, the task of renovating and standardizing manufacturing and other production industries to compete with global challenges is essential. The fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0), triggered by the development of information and communications technologies (ICTs), provides a basis for smart automation using decentralized control and advanced connectivity (e.g., Internet of Things). In the areas where the spirit of Industry 4.0 has been embraced, some industries have already implemented these ideas and yielded gains. Learning the principles of Industry 4.0 and having knowledge of this digital industrial revolution is essential for future engineering graduates. In this paper, a case study on building a learning factory from scratch based on the concept of Industry 4.0 is introduced. The initial achievement of a fully automated production line is presented. In doing so, a system with a smart design having smart control and smart monitoring is developed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Glass, Rupert, Miersch, Philipp, and Metternich, Joachim
- Abstract
Abstract To successfully deal with economic and technological changes and create competitive advantages based on unique production capabilities, it has become crucial for businesses to ensure production-relevant competencies within their workforce. Learning factories have shown to be a proficient approach to make the development of competencies possible. In literature, a wide variety of different methods to measure competencies can be found, but have to be reworked to fit the conditions of learning factories and their provided trainings. During the presented case study, existing methods are adapted and performed throughout practical exercises in the learning factory CiP (Center for Industrial Productivity) as a part of a lecture held at the PTW at the Technische Universität Darmstadt (TU Darmstadt). The attained observations are subsequently analyzed. Especially the impact of the examined trainings on the written exam of the lecture is discussed. It can be stated that there are only a handful of methods to measure competencies suitable for the presented case, which have to be adapted first in order to become applicable for measuring competencies within learning factories.

34. Assessment of Students’ Lean Competencies with the Help of Behavior Video Analysis – Are Good Students Better Problem Solvers?

Hambach, J., Diezemann, C., Tisch, M., and Metternich, J.
- Abstract
Engineering students are often lectured and afterwards examined in a knowledge-oriented way. The question is if the students we identify with those methods as good students are also better problem solvers in practice. To review if there is any correlation between knowledge and the development of competencies, students need to a) perform a written examination and b) solve real industrial tasks at the Process Learning Factory CiP like rebalancing a production line. Regarding a), students gain the theoretical knowledge in a classroom lecture to the topic „Lean Production” and write an exam. Regarding b), videos recorded showing the actions tasks are evaluated regarding the presence of problem solving competencies. A comparison of the test results and the action tasks evaluation clarifies whether the existence of knowledge leads to a similar strong development of competencies. The evaluation of the learning success shows that the student groups achieve a good and very good competency development in the lecture modules “line balancing”, “kanban” and “systematic problem solving”. The respective lecture module is confirmed by a high degree of students’ success. However, a correlation between the level of knowledge and competency cannot be clearly established because on the one hand students with good exam results achieve a good and very good degree of competency development. On the other hand students with a bad exam result achieve nevertheless a comparatively good competency development degree. Nevertheless, as a trend it can be confirmed that consolidated knowledge is one important prerequisite for the ability to act in practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Enke, Judith, Tisch, Michael, and Metternich, Joachim
- Abstract
In recent years learning factories are object of extensive research, emphasized through comprehensive discussion on this topic. The international community of learning factories has reached a common understanding of the definition and differentiation of learning factories. Nevertheless an analysis of the heterogeneous stakeholder demand on this complex learning system is still missing. So, this paper provides a study on the requirements of selected stakeholders on learning factories. A description model of the system learning factory on three levels and six dimensions serves as a basis and ensures the consideration of various expectations and distinct learning factory concepts. Subsequently, predefined hypotheses regarding the requirements of stakeholders on learning factories are tested and most important requirements are identified. The stakeholder demands analysis is the foundation of a quality system for learning factories, which is currently in development. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Rybski, Christoffer and Jochem, Roland
- Abstract
The past has shown that the successful implementation of lean in organizations needs employees with sufficient knowledge about methods and principles of lean management. The mediation of these skills during the ongoing production is known as a more efficient concept than other approaches. Consequences could be an additional cost and time pressure. Therefore the Fraunhofer IPK and TU Berlin have developed a training concept, together with a German pharmaceutical company, which makes it possible for the employees to acquire the new knowledge under real conditions and without disruption of production. The paper introduces this concept of a “Lean Factory” for pharmacy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
This paper discusses the combination of learning factories and situated (on-the-job) ICT-based social learning, as well as the didactics of learning factories and ICT-based situated learning. Moreover, a case study at the Lean Lab - learning factory in Norway is described, with results from questionnaires sent participators/students about the learning outcome in the lifelong learning aspect. Three managers where asked to what extent their company benefited from the lean lab workshops. The paper suggests an enhancement of the learning factory with an online course before and after the lean lab workshop session. This can both make the simulations at the learning lab more effective as well as enhance the usefulness of the learning into positive change for the companies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Along with new manufacturing paradigms such as Industry 4.0, based on cyber-physical systems or ubiquitous manufacturing and the rapid development of underlying technologies, the importance of lifelong learning as an integrated part of the overall activities within manufacturing companies increases. Herewith, a holistic learning culture and modern learning environments are required. To allow the learner to independently acquire knowledge and skills in a learning factory an intelligent learning management system and extensive feedback information to the learner are needed. A central approach is to pursue the new interactive knowledge transfer through the multi-sensory approach combined with innovative feedback processes, enabling a learning process with all human senses.

International audience; The latest shift in the industry, known as industry 4.0, has introduced new challenges in manufacturing. The main characteristic of this transformation is digital technologies' effect on the way production processes occur. Due to the technological growth, knowledge and skills on manufacturing operations are becoming obsolete. Hence, the need for upskilling and reskilling individuals urges. In collaboration with other key entities, educational institutions are responsible for raising awareness and interest of young students to reach a qualified and equal workforce. Drawing on a thorough literature review focused on key empirical studies on learning factories and fundamental industry 4.0 concepts, trends, teaching approaches, and required skills, the goal of this paper is to provide a gateway to understand effective learning factories’ approaches and a holistic understanding of the role of advanced and collaborative learning practices in the so-called education 4.0.

42. Learning Factory: The Path to Industry 4.0
- Abstract
Nowadays, there are plenty of studies that seek to determine which are the skills that should be met by an engineer. Communication and teamwork are some of the most recurrent ones associated with a knowledge of the engineering sciences. However, their application is not straight forward, due to the lack of educational approaches that contributes to develop experience-based knowledge. Learning Factories (LF) have shown to be effective for developing theoretical and practical knowledge in a real production environment. This article describes the transformation process of a training-addressed manufacturing workshop, in order to structure a Learning Factory for the production engineering program at EAFIT University. The proposed transformations were based on the definition of three pillars (didactic, integrative and engineering) for the development of an LF. We argue that a proper transformation process may contribute to ease the path towards new manufacturing trends such as industry 4.0 into an academic context that strengths the engineering training process. © 2017 The Authors

Traditionelle Fabrikationsprozesse verändern sich von einfachen, isolierten Aufgaben zu einer hoch automatisierten Kollaboration multipler Systeme. Durch diese Veränderung erhöht sich der Bedarf an hochqualifizierten Mitarbeiter, welcher nicht durch das derzeitige Arbeitskräftepotential am Arbeitsmarkt gedeckt werden kann. Dadurch wird mehr Bildung von Mitarbeitern benötigt, um den neuen Anforderungen zu entsprechen. Trainings sollten ideal konzipiert werden, um den Bedürfnissen zukünftiger Aufgaben gerecht zu werden. Externe Faktoren wie Arbeitsunterstützungssysteme oder Wissenstransfers von Arbeitskollegen, welche den Lernprozess beeinflussen, sollten kontrollierbar sein und den exakten Lernbedürfnissen entsprechen. Vorherrschende Lernmethoden entsprechen nicht den Bedürfnissen der Nutzer zugeschnittenes Wissen für spezifische Aufgaben zu erlangen. Des Weiteren kann die Vielfalt an Faktoren in cyber-physisch-sozialen Produktionssystemen nicht durch existierende Modelle abgebildet werden. Wissen kann über verschiedene Wege übermittelt werden, wie beispielsweise Lernen am Arbeitsplatz oder im Klassenzimmer, jedoch ist der Output des Trainings schwer kontrollierbar und vorhersagbar. Heutzutage wird der Lernprozess hauptsächlich retrospektiv durch Evaluationsmethoden analysiert, welche nicht an den Arbeitsprozess angepasst sind. In Bezug auf die Vorhersage zur Verbesserung der Arbeitsleistung durch vermehrte Übung, erlaubt bisher nur das Modell der Lernkurve Aussagen zur Durchführungszeit zukünftiger Aufgaben. Dieses Modell berücksichtigt jedoch nicht den Einfluss mehrerer Faktoren. Daher soll ein Modell entwickelt werden, welches erlaubt das Lernergebnis vorherzusagen und Trainings effizient zu planen. Dieses soll auf cyber-physisch-sozialen Produktionssystemen anwendbar sein und die Mensch-Maschine Interaktion mit intelligenten Einheiten modellieren. Dabei sollen verschiedene Szenarien abhängig von der Entscheidungsmacht innerhalb des CPSPS berücksichtigt werden. Um dieses Modell im industriellen Umfeld anwenden zu können, ist eine Verbindung mit Leistungskennzahlen notwendig zur Analyse einzelner Faktoren auf die gesamte Effizienz. In dieser Arbeit wurde ein prädiktives Modell durch die Evaluation existierender Lerntheorien und der Analyse von menschlicher Interaktion in CPSPS entwickelt. Vorhandene Faktoren innerhalb des CPSPS, welche vorhanden waren, wurden klassifiziert und in das entwickelte Modell aufgenommen. Das Modell wurde durch einen analytisch hierarchischen Prozess optimiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Vorhersage verschiedener Einflussfaktoren auf das Lernen möglich war. Für diesen Algorithmus wurden generische Daten verwendet, welche Aussagen in Bezug auf verschiedene Szenarien der Entscheidungsmacht in CPSPS auf den Lernprozess zuließen. Leistungskennzahlen wurden berechnet und erlauben eine Analyse der Einflussfaktoren. Verschiedene Lernszenarien in Bezug auf den Einfluss unterschiedlicher Faktoren können verwendet werden und determinieren den effizientesten Weg, den gewünschte Lernerfolg zu erreichen. Zukünftige Forschung soll den Einfluss und die Beziehung der Faktoren untereinander bestimmen. Eine Erweiterung des Modells um andere Faktoren wie beispielsweise Umwelteinflüsse könnte in einer höheren Präzision des Modells resultieren. Eine weitere Limitation dieser Arbeit ist die fehlende Validierung des Modells anhand von Daten aus dem Feld, welche bei zukünftigen Studien berücksichtigt werden soll., Traditional fabrication processes are changing from simple isolated tasks to a highly automated collaboration of multiple systems. Due to this change, an increasing need of highly qualified employees emerged which cannot be covered by the current workforce potential on the labour market. This requires further education of present employees to meet the new demands. Trainings should be ideally designed to fit the needs of the workers future tasks. External factors influencing the learning process, such as work support systems or knowledge transfer from working colleagues should be controllable and applicable to meet the exact learning demands. Current learning methods do not meet the user’s needs to gain tailored knowledge for specific tasks. Furthermore, the variety of factors present in cyber-physical-social production systems cannot be represented by existing learning models. Knowledge can be transferred via different paths, such as workplace or classroom learning but training output is hardly controllable or predictable. Nowadays the learning process is mainly analysed retrospectively by evaluation methods based on theories not adapted to today’s working processes. In terms of predicting performance improvement through advanced practice, only the model of the human learning curve allows to calculate future task execution times but does not allow to take several influencing factors into consideration. Therefore, exists a need to design a tool which enables to predict learning outcome and plan trainings efficiently. Applicable to cyber-physical-social production systems modelling the interaction of humans with smart entities and taking into account the different scenarios depending on the decision authority within the CPSPS. For the application in an industrial environment, the connection towards key performance indicators allows to analyse the impact of influencing factors on the overall efficiency. In this thesis a predictive model was developed by the evaluation of existing learning models and the analysis of the human interaction in CPSPS. Factors available in CPSPS were researched and classified and incorporated in the developed model. The model was optimized by applying an analytical hierarchy process. The results indicate that the prediction of different factors influencing learning was possible. For this model generic data were incorporated in the algorithm and allowed to conclude about the learning process for different scenarios of decision-making authority in CPSPS. A connection towards the key performance indicators was generated allowing to analyse the influences of the used factors. Due to the more efficient usage of factors influencing the learning curve, a better control of the learning process is possible with this approach. Knowledge transfer can be planned in a precise way based on the required demands. Different learning scenarios regarding the impact of factors can be used and evaluated to determine the most efficient way to reach the desired goal. Further research is needed to determine the influence and relationship among the factors. An extension towards further factors such as environmental influences could result in a higher precision of the model. Another important limitation to this study is the validation of the model by field data which should be considered for future research.

- Abstract
The development of manufacturing systems that are adaptive to the frequent changes in products and market conditions is becoming important with the increase in product variants and decrease in production volume of each variant to meet customers’ demands while remaining profitable. Students mostly learn about various aspects of product design, different production technologies and production planning techniques separately. It is important to provide students with hands-on experience in the whole integrated cycle of product and manufacturing systems development in a realistic environment. This paper discusses the essential knowledge elements spanning the integrated product/system life cycle and the effects of changes in products and their order mix on the manufacturing system synthesis, design, control and operation. Particular emphasis will be placed on adaptable and changeable manufacturing systems which can respond quickly and efficiently to variations in products, product mix and production volume. There are many types of learning environments and factories that can lend themselves to systems-oriented training. They vary greatly in type, scope, function, size, and location but can offer a rewarding experience when coupled with appropriate learning modules and education pedagogy. A truly reconfigurable and changeable manufacturing assembly system, the iFactory , and an iDesign studio as well as the iPlan modulesare used to demonstrate how students can gain valuable learning experience in interactive custom order placement using an iOrder tool which allows product customization and personalization, product design and rapid prototyping, order processing and scheduling, products assembly and inspection, as well as manufacturing systems design and synthesis for changeable requirements. This Learning Factory environment is the first of its kind which integrates products and systems development, operation and control. It offers a unique learning environment for senior undergraduate and graduate students as well as industrial trainees. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Engineering Education directed at topics like sustainable production or life cycle engineering needs adequate teaching approaches. Methods like research-oriented teaching, project-based learning or game-based learning are suitable techniques to promote a deeper understanding and develop competencies in respect to complex dynamic systems. However, providing appropriate teaching environments which allow for self dependent learning and practical experiences while making state of the art research insights available is quite challenging. Die Lernfabrik has been developed to suit these exact issues by providing a didactic framework for sustainable production engineering education in a real factory environment. This paper introduces a new didactic concept to combine the benefits of research-based learning approaches in engineering curriculum with the physical infrastructure of Die Lernfabrik. While gaining theoretical background in a related lecture, students utilize machinery and installations of the learning factory independently for experiments to solve their self-chosen research questions. Application and validation of the concept are exemplified by the TU Braunschweig course Energy Efficiency in Production Engineering, focusing on energy efficiency solutions for production systems. It could be proved that the individual learning motivation and success of the students as well as their competency to solve real engineering problems was significantly improved by the new approach.

Experiential teaching and research facilities such as learning factories provide a favorable environment and tools to develop, test and implement new products and manufacturing systems concepts and solutions. Learning factories that are geared towards the capabilities and requirements of changeable manufacturing systems (CMS) are used for validating new products, their variants and changeable production systems design, planning and control methods. Existing approaches of developing new products are reviewed, and a new approach to develop products for changeable learning factories is presented and validated by a case study. The new development approach is dedicated to changeable learning manufacturing systems by choosing a product line among many candidates to suite the learning system capabilities and desired learning outcomes. Designs for product variants that suite the learning factory and planned learning scenarios and training experience. This paper focuses on learning factories for changeable manufacturing systems, which are constructed to possess the necessary changeability enablers such as mobility, modularity, scalability, universality and compatibility. It is challenging to associate learning and research to a changeable manufacturing system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
[ES] La intención de la tesis de máster es la mejora de un laboratorio de fabricación ajustada situado en Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (KTH), concedido por Atlas Copco. El laboratorio Lean se utilizó en la "Ingeniería de Producción - Planificación y Control" los años anteriores en las instalaciones de Atlas Copco y este año fue adquirido por el KTH. Ahora que KTH posee la línea de producción, se requieren algunas mejoras para poder aumentar los conceptos enseñados en el laboratorio del curso. La tesis de máster se inicia con una sólida búsqueda de información acerca de las fábricas de aprendizaje, la filosofía lean y la producción automatizada. Está información recopilada en la sección literature review, ha permitido adquirir los conocimientos necesarios para comprender en primer lugar el funcionamiento y diseño de los laboratorios lean, además de interiorizar el importante papel que estos módulos de aprendizaje juegan en el desarrollo y evolución de las empresas. Las cuales necesitan de herramientas como estas para suavizar la transición hacia nuevos sistemas de producción más competitivos y eficientes. Del mismo modo, como se ha comentado, la tesis tiene la finalidad de acercar a los estudiantes la filosofía lean. Para ello se han estudiado y analizado algunas de las herramientas más importantes que conforman esta filosofía, buscando la mejor manera de presentarla e introducirla en el laboratorio. Y por último la búsqueda de información se ha centrado en la producción automatizada, los avances en esta tecnología unidos a la filosofía lean, permiten alcanzar niveles de eficiencia superiores. Como se ha podido comprobar en diversos artículos la automatización es el complemento ideal y necesario a la filosofía lean, como paso previo a la industria 4.0.
