The Challenge: The Cost of Subjectivity
In high-precision manufacturing, Deburring is an art form. It relies heavily on muscle memory. One operator might consider a surface "smooth enough," while another spots a microscopic burr. This variance leads to inconsistent quality output for Real Talent Engineering.
High-Risk Training
The deburring process involves high-velocity particles. Training new hires on the shop floor carries inherent safety risks regarding eye injuries.
The VR Solution
We deployed a physics-based Digital Twin on the Meta Quest 3S, creating a "Golden Standard" for defect detection and enforcing PPE.
Key Results for TPM Goals
-
Zero-Risk Onboarding New hires make their mistakes in the metaverse, not on the production line, saving raw material costs.
-
Data-Driven Proficiency Management now has empirical data on trainee performance (accuracy, speed, safety compliance) before they touch a physical part.
