The assembly of a complex hydraulic system of the A350 Aircraft consists of several manual operations as well as big diversity of components. The challenge arising, is to provide assembly instructions adapted to the worker’s profile and context. Moreover, accurate information must be traceable and available to quality inspectors.
WHAT
To optimise hydraulic system assembly through the usage of smart
tools and Virtual/Augmented Reality.
WHY
To evaluate the impact of an adapted AR HMI in terms of
performance and error rate for different skilled groups of people and to
enable full quality assurance approach and operators performance thanks
to traceability.

The goals for this use case include assembly time reduction, minimization of errors, and increase of efficiency, productivity and quality. What is more, with AR training and learn-by-doing method adoption, productivity of newcomers is also increased. Finally, a full quality assurance approach and traceability for supervision is enabled.
The proposed solution comprises an adaptive smart tool and an AR instruction application using HoloLens wearable devices and a framework for ensuring digital continuity starting from the data recorded in the system for manufacturing engineering up to the execution and analysis phase
