VR in industry
Industrial design & prototyping in VR
Inspect machinery at full scale, plan factory layouts and rehearse assembly — before committing steel, space or budget.
What it means
Physical prototypes and mock-ups are slow and expensive. VR lets engineering and operations teams stand inside a design, spot clashes and ergonomic problems, and iterate in hours instead of weeks.
A factory line laid out in VR gets walked by the operators who'll run it — and they spot the clearance problem the CAD review missed. Assembly training moves off production machines entirely: trainees practise the sequence fifty times without stopping the line or risking the equipment.
Where it's used
Full-scale review
Examine machines and assemblies at real size, from any angle, before manufacturing.
Layout planning
Arrange a production line or warehouse virtually and walk the flow before anything is installed.
Assembly rehearsal
Train technicians on build and maintenance sequences safely, repeatably, with no downtime on real equipment.
Why VR works here
- Operators walk the layout before it's built
- Clash and ergonomic checks at real scale
- Training without downtime on real machines
- Iterate in hours, not prototype cycles

What can we review in VR?
Machines, assemblies and factory layouts at real scale, plus assembly and maintenance training.
Standalone or PC?
Light reviews run standalone; complex engineering models tether to a workstation. We configure it.
