CONNECTED WORKER PLATFORM FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE & MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

Smart solutions to empower workers on the shop floor and unlock efficient and flexible production processes.

RESILIENT PRODUCTION PROCESSES IN VOLATILE SUPPLY CHAINS

Globally connected supply chains place new requirements on the flexibility of in-house production. Securing skilled professionals for ever more intricate production processes poses a challenge at many production facilities.
The expertise of employees in key areas of value creation is one of the most valuable assets that manufacturing companies have.
With oculavis, personnel engaged in production, assembly, and quality assurance have constant access to the knowledge and information essential for their work.

Maintenance and repair

Aiding a machine manufacturer’s maintenance team with remote expert assistance or providing a digital on-call service via AR visual support during night shifts – oculavis offers diverse applications in the maintenance and repair operations of manufacturing companies.
The machine portal embedded within oculavis serves as a powerful tool for asset management, facilitating tasks such as generating digital machine files, allocating manuals, and assigning machines and equipment to both internal and external experts.
Please feel free to discuss with us the specific areas in which you wish to apply our solutions.

Speed up ramp-up processes

To speed up equipment relocation, new assembly line setup, or the construction of a new plant, ensuring employees have access to essential information and knowledge is crucial.
The oculavis connected worker solution equips employees with mobile documentation, detailed step-by-step guides, and remote expert support, streamlining the knowledge-intensive processes involved in ramping up operations.

In-house special purpose machinery manufacturing

Large manufacturing companies usually have internal departments or divisions that design, manufacture and deliver special machines, devices or assembly systems for their own production plants – often on a global scale.
This creates internal customer-supplier relationships that may be managed more effectively with professional digital service solutions: from commissioning and training to troubleshooting during operation.

Qualification of employees with digital step-by-step guides

Digital work instructions are invaluable in onboarding new hires or adapting to evolving job requirements, acting as a robust training resource for all workers, regardless of their skill level. The inclusion of reporting features offers clear visibility into training completion and outcomes, maintaining full accountability of employee qualifications and achievements.

Continuous improvement process (CIP)

Forms for documenting innovative ideas of production employees on organization and technology improvements on the shop floor are often found in Word, PDF or paper form. With a continuous improvement process (CIP) template in oculavis, ideas can be captured easily and spontaneously using a smartphone or tablet and illustrated with pictures and videos.
The automatically assigned designated CIP manager can assess the improvement suggestion or provide clarification of the idea directly on the shop floor through the AR video support tool.

Remote audits and line walks with visual assistance

Whether for internal audits as part of lean manufacturing initiatives or for process audits at automotive suppliers according to VDA 6.3 standards – visual assistance and the structured documentation in oculavis enable fully remote audits on the shop floor. Integrated digital remote audit processes eliminate the need for participants to be physically present on site, and therefore saves time and money.

Standard operating procedures (SOPs)

In production, work, testing, or safety instructions are commonly found at workstations or machines, and often in paper format. With oculavis, these instructions can be displayed digitally and accessed through mobile devices. Furthermore, the execution of instructions by individual employees can be recorded and transparently tracked.
