Visual Quality Control using augmented reality
| |||||||
Transforming Industry with AR Technology
Augmented Reality (AR) is reshaping how enterprises function by connecting digital and physical worlds. From production to maintenance and marketing, AR has become a key industrial tool. |
AR and digital twins enable Visual Quality Inspection in manufacturing. A standard tablet becomes a reliable inspection device, capturing objects from multiple angles. Its camera feed is enhanced in real time with 3D CAD data, allowing immediate detection of discrepancies between manufactured parts and CAD models.
By replacing manual inspections, AR streamlines quality control and accelerates processes that traditionally relied on time-consuming measurement methods, making initial visual checks faster and more efficient.
Avoid costly downtimes and rework
Ensure precision and speed in inspection
Document your findings for re-producibility
Inspect your parts, anywhere, anytime
Enhance your throughput
Keep it simple: intuitive solution
How does it work?
The solution is ideal for companies looking to simplify their quality control processes that requires minimal setup time while delivering trusted results. It comprises two integrated components: desktop app and mobile app. |
Desktop App
The desktop app allows engineers to create, edit, and set up inspection procedures, organized into steps with clearly defined viewing and inspection areas.
Mobile App
The mobile app turns iOS tablets into mobile quality control tools. Operators can run procedures, add annotations and remarks, which are later processed into a detailed report in the desktop app.
Efficiency-Boosting Quality Tools
CAD/3D support
Twyn supports the standard and most relevant 3D CAD formats for industrial and manufacturing applications — eliminating the need for prior conversion. These formats include JT, STEP, and IGES, among others.
Code scanner
Twyn enables operators to link parts with inspection procedures and documents using their IDs. Regardless of the user conducting the quality check, simply by scanning the ID, the corresponding inspection process and proof plan are accessed and executed instantly.
CAD optimization and visualization
A best-in-class CAD optimization algorithm automatically prepares models for AR. This enables users to work with their original CAD files without the need for compression, all while ensuring unambiguous and high-quality rendering tailored for industrial applications.
Session recordings
Users can record images and sensory data during inspections and later replay them on their computers from remote locations. This allows for detailed inspection analysis at any time, freeing them from the constraints of a specific location or time.
Markup tool
Users can utilize a pen tool to highlight and categorize deviations and aberrations and add annotations. This facilitates comprehensive reporting and enhances communication between the quality and production teams.
Codeless augmented reality
Twyn allows users to author quality inspection workflows without writing a single line of code, making it easy to define and conduct visual quality inspections even without any AR expertise.
