Automotive

The automotive industry remains one of the world’s largest sectors and employers, yet it faces constant change and intense pressure. The growing demand for personalized vehicles, the shift toward electric and hydrogen technologies, and escalating global competition make it increasingly difficult for Tier 1, Tier 2, and OEM manufacturers to stay competitive.

Industry Challenges

Automotive

Production environments have become more complex, demanding the capability to handle high-mix, low-volume manufacturing while upholding the highest quality standards.

High-mix, low-volume production: Managing an increasing variety of models and configurations leads to a broader portfolio of parts and components.
Skilled labor shortages: Maintaining a workforce with the necessary expertise is becoming increasingly difficult.
Human-driven errors and lack of traceability: Manual processes often result in production errors with limited visibility into their root causes.

Increase first-time-right.

Operator Guidance

Enhance shop floor accuracy with step-by-step visual instructions that guide operators and ensure consistent quality across diverse processes through the integration of smart tools and devices. Many automotive manufacturers choose our operator guidance system over traditional PLC-based solutions, as they are easy for anyone to configure while effectively managing high product variation and differing operator skill levels.

Step-by-step guidance: Provide operators visual, interactive instructions that make technical knowledge instantly accessible.
AR-powered engagement: Use Augmented Reality to visualize complex tasks, keeping operators focused, confident, and efficient.
Error-proof processes: Integrate smart tools, camera’s and devices to monitor actions, reduce mistakes, and maintain production accuracy.
Digital traceability: Generate digital birth certificates for every product, offering complete transparency and proof of quality to OEMs.
