Increased Safety & Efficiency in Production
Inspect AR greatly simplifies and facilitates inspection processes in life sciences and biotech companies.
Visual guidance makes initial training and conducting inspections more efficient and less error-prone. Traceability will also increase. Inspect AR also runs on ATEX and cleanroom-certified devices that meet all safety requirements.
Digitalize the SOPs across your enterprise
Support your workers in executing machine format changes, line clearance, maintenance, and other processes on
Bio-Pharma manufacturing and packaging lines and beyond.

AR Technology Accelerates The Life Science & Biotech Organizations
Save Costs & Reduce Errors
Hardly any other industry has been as much in the spotlight recently as the life sciences and pharmaceutical industry. The effectiveness and availability of vaccines against Covid-19 will determine how quickly we return to normal social life. In addition to expensive research, time and reliability are important factors when it comes to changeover, plant control, or line clearance.
Reduce the potential risk of human errors of missing relevant checkpoints. Inspect AR raises the quality improvement of standard operating procedures (SOPs).
Optimize Your Workflow
The reliability requirements have been increasing in the life sciences industry. Faster, efficient and error-free work becomes more and more important. Inspections of packaging lines, plants or clean room environment are a good starting point to make workflows save & efficient.
We will show you how the digital transformation of paper-based processes saves time while increasing reliability and productivity.
Accelerate Processes & Knowledge
In a biotech company’s production facility, a plant tour often takes several hours per shift. In 24-hour shift operation, the inspection can take up to a quarter of the working day.
Thousands of checks must be carried out per week, adding up to hundreds of thousands of checkpoints on tanks, centrifuges, valves and other system parts each year. During all of the maintenance and inspection processes, there is no space for human errors – but you don’t always have the most qualified workers on site.
Inspect AR makes everyone an instant expert (whether a temporary worker or supervisor), ready to execute even complex procedures on-site successfully.
Go Fully Digital In A Few Hours – Not Weeks
Easily convert an existing paper-based procedure into a fully digitalized process. For each checkpoint, descriptions, links to additional documents, photos, and videos are stored to guide employees step-by-step. Augmented Guidance supports your employees, so they don’t miss any checkpoints and increase precision. This also means that even first-time users can be productively on-boarded within a short time and with less supervision.
Inspect AR is changing the work experience: fully digital, in real-time, and with crystal clear instructions.
Streamlining Processes With Augmented Reality!
Arxada AG (former Lonza) uses Inspect AR to execute more than 100.000 digital checks per year. This results in more safety and flexibility of their workflows. Furthermore, switching from paper to digital reduced a lot of bureaucracy and enables them to monitor the whole process in real-time. Learn more about Arxadas lean approach.
“On the one hand, the use of AR technology reduces the inspection effort, because instead of going through all inspection points as usual, those responsible for it can focus specifically on the items reported as defects. On the other hand, it creates opportunities for detailed data evaluations.”
Daniel Zollinger,
Senior Team Lead of Manufacturing Arxada
The Advantages For Life Science
Simple Optimization Of Workflows
Create and customize SOPs
A data-based approach to improve your processes – without development experience, scripting or coding. With Inspect AR, you create step-by-step instructions with AR-overlays as well as checklists via an intuitive user interface in the web browser or directly in the app. The templates can be adapted as quickly as they are created. Feedback from employees can be entered directly, thus constantly keeping all knowledge up to date. The system always adapts to your new processes, not the other way around. Execute standalone, simple SOPs through to commercial batch recipes.
Clear instructions for each step of the process
Inspect AR makes procedures and batches easier, faster, more efficient – and error-free: Step-by-step instructions ensure that tests are carried out in full. No process step is overlooked. If necessary, experts can also be called in remotely, e.g. via Microsoft Teams or xmReality. With the confirmation of the tests, all results are digitally documented – in real time. This way defects can also be recorded directly and rectified in a controlled manner through a simple workflow. You will automatically be informed as soon as all the work has been completed.
Overview of all workflows – in real time
Machine format changes, line clearance, maintenance, and other processes on Bio-Pharma manufacturing and packaging lines and beyond – if many complex procedures are carried out at the same time, paper lists will not be helpful. Now is the time for an overview. View all work reports and data analyses centrally on your computer! Errors are reported in real time and documented at the push of a button, including description, image, video and prioritization. Inspect AR can be used across multiple applications and always provides you with an up-to-date overview of all operations. Just with one click.
More flexibility in personnel planning
With Inspect AR, you increase the knowledge and productivity of your employees. Technical know-how is imparted “on the job” at the plant or in the cleanroom – more efficiently than through other learning methods. The test is therefore no longer dependent on a test expert. Put your whole team to work because more variety at work also means: more attention in the test. If an expert is required for troubleshooting, he/she will be called in. Inspect AR is also ideal for gathering knowledge from employees. When the baby boomers retire, their experience will stay with you in the production department!

Unlimited scalability
Inspect AR is flexible and adapts to any size of company. Whether you’re an individual, a team, or spread across multiple locations, our feature set adapts to your needs and adds value wherever you go.
Stable working in offline mode
With Inspect AR, inspections are possible even in areas with poor or blocked internet connection. If the connection is lost, the reviewer simply continues to work offline. As soon as the internet connection is restored, the data is loaded into the system.
Maximum security – Cloud or on-premise
With hosting on Azure Cloud, Inspect AR is ready to be used right out of the box, with no infrastructure or installation required. In order to meet increased security requirements, an on-premise installation is of course also possible at any time
Full automation with SAP / Dynamics
Use our interfaces or enterprise connectors to your IT landscape, e.g. SAP integration and the interface to the Microsoft Power Platform. This allows you to automatically trigger orders and feed the results back for further processing.
100% hardware independent
Inspect AR is cross-platform capable: there is a suitable device for every area of application. For the daily routine check-up, the smartphone or tablet is sufficient. If you want to work directly on the object or in demanding environments, augmented reality glasses provide perfect support.
Multiple languages to choose from
Do you have employees in multiple countries? Are there often language barriers when it comes to instructions and checklists? Thanks to the multilingual user interface, the instructions are automatically displayed in the language required by your employee and international cooperation is possible without any problems.
