Modern & Innovative approach to Industry 4.0 maintenance

Solution

The main goal was to provide support to the workforce, so they could execute standalone tasks, reducing unnecessary costs and time.
The solution was based on four aspects:

  • One platform with a data management system
  • Preventive rounds with Augmented Reality (AR) support
  • Execution proof and control
  • Ending bureaucracy

Before Glartek

High knowledge loss, slow response times, and uncentralized data management

Retaining expertise within the company was becoming increasingly costly and time-consuming. Without a centralized system, information was fragmented, leading to delays in addressing customer issues and safety risks for workers in the field. The reliance on manual, bureaucratic processes meant that managers lacked the necessary analytics to drive efficiency, while the high turnover rate constantly threatened the quality and speed of maintenance services.

After Glartek

AR-supported preventive rounds, instant information access, and total execution control

Sotécnica implemented a unified data management platform that provides workers with Augmented Reality (AR) support for standalone tasks. This digital transformation eliminated bureaucracy and provided field employees with 20x faster access to critical information. By ensuring execution proof and real-time control, managers can now assign tasks with greater flexibility, knowing that even newer employees can perform with high speed and quality.

"With Glartek, we reduced training efforts and guaranteed greater flexibility in assigning maintenance tasks to different employees. At the same time, field employees perform tasks with greater speed and quality and managers can focus on the return generated by the tasks."
