Question: What are some industrial-grade AR solutions that can be used for manufacturing assembly and quality control?

For industrial-strength AR designed for manufacturing assembly and quality control, TeamViewer Frontline is a good example of a broad platform. It includes industry-specific modules like xPick for logistics, xMake for manufacturing, xInspect for inspection and maintenance, and xAssist for remote support. It can be integrated with a range of hardware and back-end systems, so it's a good choice for companies trying to automate manual processes and improve productivity.

Another good choice is Scope AR, which is geared for improving productivity in aerospace, aviation, manufacturing and medical devices. Scope AR's main product, WorkLink, lets customers create, view, collaborate and manage content across a product's life span. It can import CAD files, collaborate in real time and include data insights, and it's designed to cut errors and reduce documentation complexity.

Cognex also offers powerful tools for quality control and manufacturing efficiency. Its 3D vision systems, like the In-Sight L38, use AI to speed up inspection and measurement tasks. Cognex products are designed to improve product quality, direct assembly robots and track products through manufacturing and distribution channels, so companies can cut defects and lower costs.

For a more general take on digital transformation, PTC has a family of PLM software that combines AR, CAD and IIoT technology. The software is designed to accelerate digital transformation, improve efficiency and improve sustainability for a range of manufacturing industries. PTC's bundles include application lifecycle management, AR for training, CAD for 3D design and PLM for up-to-date product information, among other options.
