Manufacturers ought to establish a safe workplace for their employees. Hence, their primary objectives will be zero accidents, injury prevention, and emergency preparedness. Manufacturing firms can harness Novac Immerz's Augmented Reality Solutions and Virtual Reality Solutions to improve workplace safety. Employees who use immersive technologies to practice safety procedures can apply their learning better than those who get instructions via traditional methods.
Augmented Reality streamlines safety training processes by enabling
employees to comply with all safety standards, it minimizes the number of
workplace-related injuries. Eventually, this leads to better employee well-being and
fewer man-hours lost.
Our Virtual Reality Solutions will simulate extreme situations, emergency scenarios, and dangerous environments. It enables workers to identify potential hazards and respond accordingly in real life.
Employees who perform a wrong step will receive real-time alerts about safety violations. This helps them handle emergencies better. For instance, Augmented Reality headsets can showcase hazard signs to workers while they operate machines, lift equipment, and handle materials. Accordingly, they can come up with action plans to minimize risks.
Manufacturers need not invest significantly in setting up classroom-based training programs. They can hire experts and organize real-time training sessions at various locations. Online training will reduce transportation costs.
Workers who are thoroughly trained will be able to reduce the occurrence of real accidents. Ultimately, this will lead to a decrease in fines for non-compliance with health and workplace safety legislation.
AR VR in Manufacturing Industry can create endless scenarios. When compared to conventional training methods, any scenario can be delivered accurately.
VR for workers safety training will offer visual representations of different situations. Simulators will replicate real-life conditions and enable workers to practice their learned concepts.
AR VR for manufacturing workers safety training helps them to retain knowledge longer and complete tasks quickly. Manufacturers who utilize immersive technologies will experience increased output and reduced time to complete mission-critical tasks. Informative training modules will provide a detailed understanding of safety protocols.
As a leading AR VR Development Company, we create different safety scenarios using Augmented and Virtual Reality. These offer workers an immersive and hands-on experience, allowing them to acquire specialized skills in compliance with recognized safety standards.
We have also published a detailed blog on “Exploring the Potential of AR and VR in Manufacturing Workforce Training”. To know more about this phenomenon, read the article.
Frontline workers who handle machinery and equipment can protect themselves from diseases and injuries. Simulation-based training will provide a virtual walkthrough of organizational procedures. Therefore, workers can familiarize themselves with the ins and outs of factories and plants.
Natural disasters like cyclones, earthquakes, floods, landslides, storms, tornadoes, and typhoons can cause severe damage. Virtual Reality-based training solutions offered by Novac Immerz are an excellent alternative to real-life drills. Workers get exposed to different scenarios in a geo-specific 3D environment. They can train as individuals and teams and respond to incidents in a coordinated manner.
Disaster management simulators are also cost-effective as there is no need to hire real-life personnel and acquire equipment for conducting physical drills and exercises. Further, Virtual Reality offers benefits like tactical training, automatic response plans to threats, scalability, and tailormade modules.
Motion-based sensor technology will enable workers to learn how to operate an extinguisher. They will get trained to extinguish flames in a virtual environment. Virtual Reality provides advantages like a safe firefighting experience, real-time exposure to simulated surroundings, and performance tracking through sensors and trackers.
Eventually, VR-based fire safety training will allow workers to master their firefighting skills through unlimited learning attempts. The training sessions can also be held regardless of location, time, and weather constraints.
Inappropriate use of electrical equipment can cause burns, shock, and electrocution. Virtual simulations will help workers avoid hazards resulting from electrical malfunction.
Manufacturers find machine downtime costly. Our Augmented Reality (AR) solutions can streamline equipment maintenance. Technicians can automatically schedule preventive maintenance after receiving instructions from handheld devices.
Besides that, interactive manuals will simplify the troubleshooting process. Timely sharing of instructions and tips will enable technicians to make the right decisions. After getting well-versed in safety training, they can minimize the damage to equipment.
Augmented Reality (AR) can also integrate with other aspects of maintenance, such as inspection, quality control, mean time to repair (MTTR), and remote assistance. Workers will be trained in object identification and complex repair procedures.
Hence, using AR for equipment maintenance offers benefits like timely fault detection, consistent servicing, fewer errors during installation, and lesser dependence on experienced technicians. Further, performance optimization is ensured through the elimination of unplanned downtime.
The future of manufacturing lies in immersive 3D virtual worlds. Our Augmented Reality Solutions and Virtual Reality Solutions are apt for facility layout planning, safety skills training, and identification of workplace hazards. Are you looking to leverage immersive technology and improve worker safety? Contact Novac Immerz now and leverage our AR VR solutions.
