In large manufacturing companies, such as Bosch, that operate thousands of production lines with each comprising up to dozens of production machines and other equipment, even simple inventory questions such as of location and quantities of a particular equipment type require non-trivial solutions. Addressing these questions requires to integrate multiple heterogeneous data sets which is time consuming and error prone and demands domain as well as knowledge experts. Knowledge graphs (KGs) are practical for consolidating inventory data by bringing it into the same format and linking inventory items. However, the KG creation and maintenance itself pose challenges as mappings are needed to connect data sets and ontologies. In this work, we address these challenges by exploring LLM-supported and context-enhanced generation of both YARRRML and RML mappings. Facing large ontologies in the manufacturing domain and token limitations in LLM prompts, we further evaluate ontology reduction methods in our approach. We evaluate our approach both quantitatively against reference mappings created manually by experts and, for YARRRML, also qualitatively with expert feedback. This work extends the exploration of the challenges with LLM-supported and context-enhanced mapping generation YARRRML [Schmidt et al., 2025] by comprehensive analyses on RML mappings and an ontology reduction evaluation. We further publish the source code of this work. Our work provides a valuable support when creating manufacturing mappings and supports data and schema updates.
