ActiveAssist
Modular, connected, and interactive… The new assistance system from Bosch Rexroth, ActiveAssist, is revolutionising the manual workstation. The ActiveAssist software solution supports employees with targeted information and help functions to guarantees high process reliability.
The open software solution is another building block on the road to the factory of the future. ActiveAssist identifies the workpiece by RFID or barcode and loads the required work plan immediately onto the monitor. Work instructions are then projected directly onto the work surface using a projector and the correct grab container is marked. This guides the employee step by step through the workflow, all the information ergonomically positioned in their field of vision.
