Developed in collaboration with Bosch Rexroth, the ARKITE Operator Guidance Platform ensures high accuracy in production processes by digitalizing manual assembly, picking, and quality control operations. This system replaces physical documents with augmented reality (AR) instructions and real-time sensor feedback.
### Augmented Reality Projection and Workflow Integration
The platform guides operators through assembly steps using the "pick-to-projection" method. In "Guide" mode, AR instructions are projected directly onto the work surface and relevant picking containers, allowing operators to focus on their tasks without needing to look at external screens. Secondary equipment such as smart clamping systems, press stations, and collaborative robots are also integrated into a single workflow, ensuring that process steps are executed in the correct sequence and reducing error rates by up to 90%.
### Real-Time Validation and Vision-Based Quality Control
The "Validate" mode uses 3D sensors and special algorithms to track tasks in real-time, instantly detecting deviations from instructions and allowing for intervention. In situations requiring high precision, high-resolution vision sensors called ARKITE Vision verify micro-assembly accuracy. This technology has reduced human errors by 80% in over 1000 applications worldwide, increasing the First Pass Yield (FPY) rate.
### Modular Structure and System Compatibility
The platform is built on Bosch Rexroth's modular systems, which comply with ergonomic and hygiene standards. Key technical features include:
- Rapid loading of work instructions without requiring code
- Open interfaces for integration with higher-level systems like MES or ERP
- Ability to easily integrate into new or existing lines
### Training Efficiency and Global Deployment
This system, which shortens operator training time by up to 50%, also functions as a continuous on-the-job training tool thanks to the intuitive use of its AR interface. ARKITE ensures the widespread adoption of the platform through its partner network, which offers regional technical support and application expertise via the Bosch Rexroth Certified Excellence partnership.
