Stand-alone central control unit for factories<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

For Awesome Technologies, a German company specialised in modernising how factories operate, Everlab designed the stand-alone central control ACPS-Pillar for their tablet based software solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From this central hub, the surrounding factory equipment can be controlled and a tablet or AR glasses can be used to view information about the processes in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

one-size-fits-all “pillar” that features all the components of the solution. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The product is placed in high-tech factories, where space optimisation is a driving factor for efficiency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, the aesthetics of the pillar need to fit the futuristic AR enabled factory. The shape of the folded metal feels a bit like a puzzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since factories, even high tech ones, can be dirty and dusty, the pillar needed to protect the VR headset, the computer, the keyboard and the UPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everlab built five fully functional prototypes in various colors for the client to showcase to their own clients and prospects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the design process, the scalability was a crucial aspect. The production steps are quite minimal. This contributes to allowing for JIT (just in time) manufacturing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
