ProLadung Prozessmanagement für Ladungsträger und Produkte mittels Transpondertechnologie The automotive industry is characterised by a high degree of automation of the logistics systems and use of integrated control concepts. Therefore reliable supply of components is highly important for an undisturbed production. The project aims to exploit new technologic potentials to improve improve logistic processes at different steps of the value chain of both an OEM as well as a 1st tier supplier by exploiting the potentials of the RFID technology. An RFID infrastructure was created for automatic identification and data compilation of supply parts during manufacturing, shipping, stock receipt, buffering and assembly as well as their carriers and loading equipment. These logistic objects have been modelled and implemented within an agent-based software system, which processes the data compiled by the RFID systems components in order to improve process control. To exploit the potentials of technology existing process flows were analysed and adapted. The results were validated by simulation studies. Following detailed process simulation studies, the solution was implemented as a demonstrator in collaboration with the Bremen plant of DaimlerChrysler and the Bremen plant of its supplier Lear Corporation GmbH & Co KG. The solution is currently being live-tested and improved. Following detailed simulation studies, the solution was implemented as a demonstrator at Daimler's Bremen factory to improve supply of car seating systems. Contact persons: M.
