The Project
Pilatus’s decision to implement Virtek’s IRIS 3D software with Vision Positioning System (VPS) has delivered significant improvements in their manufacturing process, such as: increased productivity, higher process security, and precise part positioning.
The Challenge
Pilatus faced several challenges that were hindering their production process and overall efficiency. The primary issues included: productivity constraints, cost pressures and process security.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Pilatus selected Virtek’s Vision Positioning System (VPS). This decision was driven by the fact that Virtek’s solution had already been implemented in some parts of their operations, and the company was familiar with the capabilities of the technology.
The specific needs of Pilatus were aligned with the strengths of Virtek’s system, which included: laser projection for high precision, integration into the control system of pallet automation of machines and customization for low-batch manufacturing.
