While in the past the production of prototypes, tools and small series enabled significant shortening of innovation and development cycles, the respective technologies are now also increasingly relevant for industrial series production due to increased assembly speeds, a comprehensive materials portfolio and increased process reliability. In this context, manufacturing aspects such as the improvement of process parameters, the application of methods for process monitoring as well as the further development of manufacturing equipment are the focus of scientific and industrial efforts. Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is attracting particular attention from industrial users because of its ability to produce complex metallic components without the use of tools. Today, users of this technology are increasingly facing challenges in the production environment as industrialization progresses. These operational challenges are met in the environment of conventional manufacturing by means of methods and processes from the field of production systematics. Since a description of production logistic target values and key performance indicators, which can be located in the interface area of additive manufacturing and production systematics, has not yet been carried out in a process-specific manner, established procedures for overcoming operational challenges are not applicable. The objective of the present work is therefore the definition and development of concepts, key performance indicators and methods by means of which the specifics of additive manufacturing technologies can also be considered from the perspective of production systematics. The relevant fields of action are addressed in such a way that the need for sustainable implementation of additive manufacturing processes is taken into account. The methodology developed serves as a basis for decision-making along the process chain of the LPBF technology for company-specific production logistics positioning. In addition to simplifying decision-making on production-related issues, an integrated approach also identifies rationalization potential for value-adding process steps upstream of the manufacturing process. For users of additive manufacturing technology, appropriate production logistics positioning results in a unique selling proposition that goes beyond technical mastery of the manufacturing process and thus serves as a competitive advantage. %F PUB:(DE-HGF)11 %9 Dissertation / PhD Thesis %R 10.18154/RWTH-2022-00151 %U https://publications.rwth-aachen.de/record/837886
