assembly area, and delivery
condition. In addition to material
selection, the application concept
(e.g., engraving, molding) of the
component ID (homologation
label) is considered, as it is closely
relates to the material. Other
properties, such as accessibility,
complexity of integration, assembly
area, and delivery condition, are
noted for informational purposes
and do not contribute to the
classification. Prioritization of
these properties resulted in derived
component classes for application
in subsequent PoCs.
The classification by material and
application concept is presented in
Figure 2.
Figure 2: Classi昀椀cation according to material and application
Figure 2 lists relevant materials
such as glass, elastomers, metal,
thermoplastics, and thermoset
plastics, along with application
concepts including printing,
molding, color printing, engraving,
and labels. These application
concepts are assigned to the
respective materials.
After de昀椀ning the properties,
components are classi昀椀ed.
The highest priority is given
to material and application
concept. Other properties, such
as the accessibility, complexity of
integration, assembly area, and
delivery condition, are listed for
informational purposes without
further classi昀椀cation.
An excerpt of the de昀椀ned
component classi昀椀cation classes
is presented in Figure 3.

Figure 3 presents results for
material and application concept
properties. Components are
assigned in the second column,
showing the classification result for
the first component classification
class with the material property
"metal.” Additional component
