Manufacturing industries across the globe are increasingly adopting all the latest disruptive technologies of the 21st centuries including IoT, VR, automation, robotics, and big data analytics. Augmented reality is no exception to this statement. The outrageous success of Pokémon GO fueled the widespread acceptance of the augmented reality technology within numerous industries. The ability of this technology to augment digital information onto physical elements and objects has limitless possibilities in the manufacturing industry. It can also cut down operating costs and production downtime in addition to ensuring a smooth flow of operation.
Augmented reality in the Manufacturing Industry
Helps with Complex Assembly
The manufacturing process has grown complex over time, requiring the assembly of hundreds and thousands of components in precise sequence. Missing any small component or the sequence could severely compromise the product’s quality. Augmented reality eliminates the use of documents such as instructions and dynamically projects all information on the field of view all the times.
Cut Down on Maintenance Time
Today, companies have to rely on the availability of the technicians for any maintenance tasks. Augmented reality can enable any person to do mechanical tasks by guiding them through 3D models to carry out the maintenance tasks. Additionally, it also eliminates the need for any maintenance manuals and displays the machine’s status in real time for timely maintenance.
