As technology advances, alternatives to the internal combustion engine, such as battery and fuel cell-driven electric mobility, are becoming increasingly attractive. Sustainable propulsion by battery has already been widely researched and is being mass-produced. The fuel cell, on the other hand, is not yet being produced to the same extent. To develop the fuel cell into a serious competitor to the battery, its series production must be targeted to further reduce costs. In addition, the increasing demand for fuel cells can only be satisfied through series production. For the flexible use of fuel cells in buses, trucks, and cars, production with a wide range of variants is also necessary. For the conception of series production, a realistic simulation of the material flow is an important component. This paper presents an approach for an intelligent pull concept to decouple material flow and at the same time reduce setup cost.
