Eliminating Defects with AR Technology

by | Sep 20, 2023

Summary

L3Harris Technologies implemented LightGuide AR software to aid in eliminating defects. Learn how LightGuide AR provided the solution to a complex problem in this case study.

As innovation soars and products become more technologically advanced, operators must keep pace with increasing variation and complexity. Especially for companies delivering equipment to the front lines, products must be reliable, no matter what challenges manufacturers face.

L3Harris Technologies implemented LightGuide AR software to ensure standardization across a variety of complex processes. Following the implementation of LightGuide on a line with 17 variants of one product, visually guided workflows helped consolidate parts, which eliminated changeover per variant and resulted in zero assembly-related defects. Since these results, L3Harris has implemented LightGuide on complex manual lines at multiple locations.
