Resolve Manufacturing Challenges with Projected AR Workflows

In the manufacturing industry, where the majority of factory tasks are performed by people and 80% of defects are caused by human errors, manufacturers need a proven technology to reduce variation and guarantee that operators get the job done right every time.

Digitally transform your operations and empower your workforce to succeed with augmented reality (AR). LightGuide’s projected AR work instruction platform standardizes and error-proofs manual workflows for breakthroughs in quality, productivity, and operational agility.

Optimize Processes & Improve Quality

Builds are getting more complex.
Eliminate defects and improve efficiency by transforming manual processes into visual AR workflows for real-time guidance and no-fault-forward quality control.

Bridge the Skills Gap

Attract, train, and retain employees. AR-guided training makes work instructions easier to follow and faster to comprehend, helping workers gain the skills to achieve optimal quality and productivity.

Enhance Traceability

Unlock full traceability to identify deviations at the source. Capture manual process data for a more complete view of operations and identify additional areas of optimization.

Unlock the Power of AR Workflows with LightGuide

As the premier digital work instruction platform, LightGuide’s projected AR software interfaces with industrial-grade projectors, sensors, and smart tools to guide operators through each step of a company’s key assembly, inspection, material handling, and training operations.

  • Prevent errors with interactive AR work instructions projected directly on your operators’ work surface
  • Detect errors in real time with 3D sensors and vision cameras that monitor and catch mistakes
  • Get real-time data and insights on your operators’ performance and quality

Leading Manufacturers Have Dramatically Improved Their Processes. So Can You.

Leading Aerospace & Defense Manufacturer Eliminates Defects with AR Technology

Responsible for developing some of the world’s most technologically advanced products, L3Harris needed to ensure its products adhered to the highest standards of quality and reliability. After implementing LightGuide on a line with 17 variants, the company eliminated defects and changeover per variant.

Transmission Company Reduces Cycle Time and Improves Quality with AR Work Instructions

After implementing LightGuide on a production line with four workstations and nearly 100 parts bins, this global supplier of electrified propulsion systems and automatic transmissions eliminated process confusion, reducing cycle time dramatically and improving quality by 100%.

Hydraulic Manufacturer Achieves Zero Defects with AR Work Instructions

 

Using LightGuide’s projected AR workflow platform for precision guidance and cross-training, this hydraulic company reduced errors from 769 defective parts per million to ZERO. The company also reduced changeover time by 10 minutes, resulting in an extra hour added to production time per day.

Testimonials

"[LightGuide] reduces the reliance on operator memory – also known as “cognitive ergonomics” – effectively turning a complex process with multiple steps into a series of simple processes with single steps."
