Achieve operational excellence – The bar is high for OEMs as they endeavor to meet ever growing market pressure amid shifting industrial paradigms. Because design sets the stage for manufacturing, it is critical for engineering teams to recognize the interactions of people with their proposed products and processes to assure ease of assembly, operation, and sustained production.
By collaborating virtually in "immersive design reviews", engineering teams can evaluate human-centric product and process interactions. Thereby recognizing potential assembly risks that may arise to adjust the design or procedure, when needed, to prevent issues from escalating during production.
As a result, engineering teams make better informed decisions early and ultimately realize significant reductions in costly late engineering change orders. More importantly, the use of virtual reality during the design review process to conduct Human-Centric Assembly Process Validations can significantly improve on-time delivery, assure repeatable quality, and ultimately improve product profitability.
