2. 1. Innovation Engineering in Practice : Bridging Exploration and Exploitation in Large Manufacturing Incumbents

   Author : Jenny Elfsberg; Andreas Larsson; Christian Johansson Askling; Tobias Larsson; Martin Steinert; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Innovation engineering; Innovation team; Exploration journey; Social connectedness; Organizational ambidexterity; Intentional PSS design; Futureproofing large manufacturing incumbents; Buffer role; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

   Abstract : This thesis discusses how large manufacturing incumbent companies potentially can ensure their longevity and future-proof themselves by infusing ambidexterity throughout their organizations. Ambidextrous companies are equipped to achieve success in both current and future business environments, providing valued solutions to customers today and in the future. READ MORE

4. 2. Factory-in-a-Box : an Enabler for Flexibility in Manufacturing Systems

   Author : Andréas Ask; Mats Jackson; Björn Fagerström; Björn Langbeck; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Factory-in-a-Box; Flexibility; Mobility; Manufacturing; Production; Mass Customization; Manufacturing engineering; Produktionsteknik; industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Organisations;

   Abstract : AT PRESENT, many markets are characterized by a fast pace of change, as well as a high internationally enlarged competition. Since the conception of Mass Customization emerged in the late 1980´s, many companies within the manufacturing industry have been striving to fulfill this vision by increasing the flexibility within their manufacturing system.

5. 3. Surface Roughness Considerations in Design for Additive Manufacturing: A Space Industry Case Study

   Author : Didunoluwa Obilanade; Peter Törlind; Christo Dordlofva; Anna Rönnbäck Öhrwall; Marta-Lena Antti; Stankovic Tino; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Additive Manufacturing; Space Industry; Surface Roughness; Design for Additive Manufacturing; DfAM; Laser Powder Bed Fusion; Produktinnovation; Product Innovation;

   Abstract : Additive Manufacturing (AM), commonly known as 3D printing, represents manufacturing technology that creates objects layer by layer based on 3D model data. AM technologies have capabilities that provide engineers with new design opportunities outside the constraints of traditional subtractive manufacturing. READ MORE

6. 4. Innovation and transformation in the Swedish manufacturing sector, 1970-2007

   Author : Karolin Sjöö; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; innovation; industrial transformation; manufacturing; structural change; third industrial revolution; literature-based innovation output; innovation indicator; economic history; Sweden;

   Abstract : This doctoral thesis investigates changes in the volume and character of Swedish manufacturing sector innovation output between 1970 and 2007, a time span composed of both extended periods of relative prosperity and decline. More specifically, it examines whether changes in the number of innovations, the character of the innovating firms, and the distribution of innovations across industries are generally associated with any such period.
