Redesign of Manufacturing Workstation with Value Sensitive Design and Axiomatic Design to Incorporate Values of Industry 5.0

Abstract:

Industry 5.0 arises as a logical advance of Industry 4.0 to enhance the values that were being gradually abandoned due to the rapid technological advancement. These values focus on the human being, the sustainability and the continuity of the industrial system become the main objectives to be maintained during the development of the new smart industry model. These objectives allow the design of work environments within Industry 5.0 that ensure the adaptation of workers to technologies of Industry 4.0, in a sustainable way and that strengthen a resilient industrial system. In the present work the use of Value Sensitive Design (VSD) methodology for the redesign of manufacturing workplace in accordance with the values established by the Industry 5.0 is proposed. In this process, the VSD tripartite methodology allows to maintain the values of Industry 5.0 throughout the design process. Moreover, the integration of this methodology with the Axiomatic Design (AD) allows to achieve specific design parameters that meet the needs of the different stakeholders. The application of this model seeks the development of symbiotic work environments, in which workers increase their different physical, sensory and cognitive abilities with advanced technologies. The design of a work environment following the proposed model promotes a social smart industrial environment in which the safety and health of workers is ensured.
