Darmstadt. Twyn 2.5, Visometry’s iPad-based AR solution for visual, CAD-driven inspection, is gaining traction across an increasing number of industries, bolstered by new features that further enhance its accuracy, versatility, and ease of use. The latest version of its Assisted Deviation Detection (ADD) now detects both small, close-range components and large assemblies with high precision. With this new release, Visometry has also improved the user experience, making Twyn easier to use for frontline operators and IT teams in large enterprises.
Twyn enables fast, flexible and consistently reliable product and component inspection using a standard tablet. Quality managers report up to 80 percent shorter inspection times and up to 90 percent fewer defects. These advantages — together with new, demand-driven features — have made Twyn a trusted solution for leading companies across industries such as shipbuilding, rail, and aviation. It has long been established in automotive, agricultural machinery/equipment, toolmaking, and general welding inspection. “Across industries, quality teams face similar challenges today: impromptu, on-the-spot checks are needed more frequently, while time, efficiency and cost pressures continue to rise. Traditional inspection setups — fixed installations or complex systems that require extensive handling — can no longer keep pace with these new workflow requirements. Twyn closes that gap,” explains Florian Schmitt, Product Manager for Twyn at Visometry. Visometry listens closely to its customers: Product enhancements are shaped in part by feedback gathered in regular user meetings.
Assisted Deviation Detection now excels at close-range inspection
One example of Twyn’s latest advancements is the enhanced Assisted Deviation Detection (ADD): The solution can now reliably assess features such as weld points, determining whether they meet specifications or require rework. Inspectors can also move closer than the previous 30-centimeter limit when checking parts. The previous close-range distance limitation has been removed entirely. These improvements are particularly valuable for automotive manufacturing and aerospace. “This makes ADD ideal for body-in-white applications and for inspecting small components at millimeter-level tolerances,” Schmitt points out. ADD still excels at its core strength: accurately comparing real-world part edges to their CAD specifications, flagging deviations immediately or confirming that everything matches as intended.
Twyn supports key trends in modern manufacturing
Twyn also aligns with a major trend in distributed manufacturing: Individual modules of a product are often produced and painted far from the final assembly site, sometimes in facilities with limited inspection capabilities. “A quick check with Twyn can prevent defective modules from moving on to painting or even being shipped on an expensive long-distance route. And it can avoid unnecessary metrology work when a part is already within tolerance. The larger the component, the more expensive these unnecessary steps become,” Schmitt notes. Twyn makes it easy to implement error-prevention principles such as “check before you measure”. Its intuitive workflow keeps employee training needs low.
IT integrations and data connectivity for advanced quality workflows
Twyn is not only built for users on the shop floor, it also provides value to IT teams in large enterprises: “More customers are opting for a greater number of Twyn licenses and for licenses with longer terms than before.” In response, we’re providing the interfaces IT organizations need to roll out Twyn across sites and to seamlessly connect inspection workflows, design data, and product revisions,” says Schmitt. These capabilities support the scalable, traceable quality processes required in today’s increasingly digital and competitive manufacturing landscape.
