本文提出了一种针对以人为本的工作场所的外骨骼规划、优化和集成的整体方法，重点关注汽车行业。该行业当前和未来挑战的一部分（即，需要灵活的制造，但也有人口变化）是这篇文章的动机。这一挑战应该通过整合外骨骼来转化为积极的有效性。作者已经发表的研究工作以摘要的形式结合在一起，以获得所有相关的知识，特别是结果，在一个连贯和最终的背景下。本文为外骨骼技术中感兴趣的新手以及经验丰富的用户，规划者和研究人员提供了所有相关部分的概述和指南：从绝对基础开始直到操作使用。在确定了动机和三个相关的研究问题之后，介绍了外骨骼技术以及当前在规划和优化人体工程学和制造效率方面的挑战。第一预选方法（称为ExoMatch）提出了通过过滤和匹配所有重要的分析属性和特性，考虑到所有相关方面的环境，找到最合适的外骨骼workplacesm。下一节将讨论通过在制造中集成外骨骼来分析影响因素的结果。特别是，人体工程学相关的和生产过程相关的（特别是时间管理）的影响，确定和研究已经出版的作品进行了讨论。下一个重要的步骤是提出一个路线图作为集成外骨骼的指导方针。本文给出了相关的知识，方法和指导方针，优化集成外骨骼为以人为本的工作场所，考虑到人体工程学和过程相关的影响，在一个连贯的背景下，从几个已经发表的研究工作的结果和总结。
This article presents a holistic methodology for planning, optimization and integration of exoskeletons for human-centered workplaces, with a focus on the automotive industry. Parts of current and future challenges in this industry (i.e., need of flexible manufacturing but as well having demographic change) are the motivation for this article. This challenges should be transformed in positive effectiveness by integrating of exoskeletons regarding this article. Already published research work from authors are combined in a form of summary, to get all relevant knowledge, and especially results, in a coherent and final context. This article gives interested newcomers, as well as experienced users, planners and researchers, in exoskeleton technology an overview and guideline of all relevant parts: from absolute basics beginning until operative usage. After fixing the motivation with resulting three relevant research questions, an introduction to the exoskeleton technology and to the current challenges in planning and optimizing the ergonomics and efficiency in manufacturing are given. A first preselection method (called ExoMatch) is presented to find the most suitable exoskeleton for workplacesm by filtering and matching all the important analyzed attributes and characteristics under consideration to all relevant aspects from environments. The next section treats results regarding an analysis of influencing factors by integrating exoskeletons in manufacturing. In particular, ergonomic-related and production-process-related (especially time-management) influences identified and researched in already published works are discussed. The next important step is to present a roadmap as a guideline for integration exoskeleton. This article gives relevant knowledge, methodologies and guidelines for optimized integrating exoskeleton for human-centered workplaces, under consideration of ergonomics- and process-related influences, in a coherent context, as a result and summary from several already published research work.
