Abstract

Purpose This study aims to research the usage of virtual reality as a tool to train employees in a changeover process in a company, and if it guarantees the same level of quality. Moreover, another goal is to understand how it can influence the machines’ availability, reducing the number of hours a machine is stopped to perform training sessions. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the goals proposed, the action research strategy was used. After defining the context and purpose, two full cycles were applied, composed by five activities: diagnosis, action planning, action taking, action evaluation and specify the learning. Findings The results are extremely satisfactory. On the one hand, it can be concluded that virtual reality is a reliable training tool, guaranteeing proper training to the employees. On the other hand, based on the previous point, the researchers were able to conclude that it is possible to increase machines’ availability, reducing by 50% the time needed to have the machines stopped to run a changeover training. Originality/value To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to use the action research strategy to develop a virtual reality simulation as a training tool for machines’ changeover in the automotive industry.
使用虚拟现实技术作为冲压机模具更换的电子培训工具:汽车行业案例研究
目的 本研究旨在探讨如何利用虚拟现实技术作为一种工具,对公司员工进行转换流程培训,以及虚拟现实技术是否能保证同样的质量水平。此外,另一个目的是了解虚拟现实如何影响机器的可用性,减少机器为进行培训而停机的时间。 设计/方法/途径 为实现所提出的目标,我们采用了行动研究策略。在确定了背景和目的之后,采用了两个完整的周期,由五项活动组成:诊断、行动规划、行动实施、行动评估和明确学习内容。 研究结果 研究结果非常令人满意。一方面,可以得出结论,虚拟现实技术是一种可靠的培训工具,可以保证对员工进行适当的培训。另一方面,基于前一点,研究人员得出结论,可以提高机器的可用性,将机器停止运行以进行转换培训所需的时间减少 50%。 原创性/价值 据作者所知,这是第一项使用行动研究策略开发虚拟现实模拟作为汽车行业机器转换培训工具的研究。
