Manufacturing AR-Guided Equipment Maintenance

Replace paper maintenance logs and tribal knowledge with AR-guided repair instructions, digital work orders, and predictive maintenance analytics.

The Business Challenge

Manufacturers lose production time to equipment downtime, slow technician training, and tribal knowledge that leaves when experienced workers retire.

Current Pain Points:

  • Paper Maintenance Logs: Lost records, illegible handwriting, no analytics
  • Tribal Knowledge: Critical repair know-how exists only in senior technicians' heads
  • Slow Technician Training: New hires take months to learn complex equipment repairs
  • Inefficient Repairs: Techs waste time searching manuals and consulting experts
  • No Predictive Maintenance: Reactive repairs lead to costly unplanned downtime
  • Parts Ordering Delays: Manual lookups slow down procurement process

What Success Looks Like:

  • AR overlay shows step-by-step repair instructions on equipment
  • Digital checklists guide technicians through maintenance procedures
  • Computer vision identifies parts and suggests replacements
  • Historical maintenance data enables predictive analytics
  • New technicians get up to speed faster
  • Reduced downtime and extended equipment lifespan

Our Solution: AR-Guided Maintenance Platform

Native iOS app whose step-by-step repair guidance is generated from the manufacturer's own manual and anchored on the machine, with digital work orders and maintenance analytics on AWS serverless infrastructure and Vision Pro support.

Core Features

AR Repair Instructions

Point the device at the machine: step-by-step guidance generated from the manufacturer's own manual, anchored on the parts it names

Digital Work Orders

Create, assign, track maintenance tasks with photos, completion checklists, time tracking

Computer Vision Parts ID

Scan part to identify model number, view specs, check inventory, order replacements

Predictive Analytics

Machine learning predicts failure before it happens, schedule preventive maintenance

Knowledge Base

Searchable repair procedures, troubleshooting guides, equipment manuals, video tutorials

Vision Pro Compatible

Hands-free AR with spatial computing, voice commands, real-time remote expert assistance
