Immersive Collaboration Enhances Factory Planning

⊲ The Manufacturer ⊳ Glass maker Pilkington UK, part of the NSG Group, is using immersive virtual reality to reshape how its engineering teams design, test and validate manufacturing systems. At its European Technical Centre in Lathom, Lancashire, engineers built a full-scale 3D model of a new robotic cell before any physical work began, spotting layout and safety issues early. The VR approach cuts repeated site visits and supports global team collaboration. The VR-in-manufacturing market is forecast to grow by nearly 30% annually to 2032.
