Abstract

The interdisciplinary research project StahlAssist focuses on the processing and application of experience-based knowledge in maintenance. Hence, the authors address the linkage between a technological solution and an experience-based approach in knowledge management. The article reflects on the significance of experience-based knowledge in industrial processes, its integration to assistive technologies, and evaluates the use cases of the project. In the first use case, we designed a technology-based infrastructure to provide expert knowledge immediately in the work process; the second use case introduces technology-assisted handover talks.
