Some details
Challenges and Needs
- Ramp-up cycles not supported with easy-to-use tools
- Book-binders not up-to-date
- Long process of updating instructions
- Time to consult the documentation is too long
Applied solution – SkillWorx by TT PSC
The TT PSC team – AR Solution Architect has delivered a hands-free experience for the RealWear HMT-1 headset. Our
solution connects to the PTC ThingWorx Operator Advisor, detects and tracks the workers’ physical location together with what they are supposed to do there. We introduced spatial intelligence to HMT-1 in order to show which tasks, where and how should be done and how to document what was actually done.Achieved results – what benefits SkillWorx can bring?
We started the project with two goals in mind. First, to accelerate the ramp-up cycles with easy-to-use tools that can shorten the time needed to onboard new personnel and track their performance so they can be trained much faster in terms of processes, tools, materials and workstations. Second – to facilitate information flow by providing both contextual information and capturing the knowledge in the form of voice memos, photos and videos to share, review and archive even during a shift change. Both goals contribute significantly to solving the challenges of a changing-workforce and worker skill-gap.
Benefits
- Accelerate onboarding
- Train operators before prototype assembly
- Bi-directional knowledge capturing and sharing
- Lower time required to access information
- Trigger change request on demand
