Publication III: Machine Learning-based Prediction of Missing Components for Assembly—a Case Study at an Engineer-to-order Manufacturer

For manufacturing companies, especially for machine and plant manufacturers, the assembly of products in time has an essential impact on meeting delivery dates. Often missing individual components lead to a delayed assembly start, hereinafter referred to as assembly start delayers. Identifying the assembly start delayers early in the production process can help to set countermeasures to meet the required delivery dates.
