Avantguard streamlines assembly by connecting to shop floor devices, primarily Atlas Copco's tightening tools, handheld battery tools, wrenches, and multi-spindle controllers.
It ensures tools activate only when necessary and with the correct parameters. For intricate processes, it offers operator guidance via on-screen instructions accessible through a web browser, tailored to product variants and options.
Avantguard integrates with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) to retrieve assembly information and ensures traceability by collecting results for each step.
These results aid in generating product reports and identifying areas for improvement. Additionally, they assist operators in repairing faulty products.
