Inspection & Vision Systems

Integrated Inspection & Vision Systems​

​Aerospace manufacturing and maintenance demand extremely high precision, safety, and repeatability. Modern inspection and vision systems—ranging from 2D/3D automated optical sensing to AI‑guided robotics—play a critical role within component manufacturing, structural health monitoring, and Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO).​

Providing standardarised unique characteristics that allow the support of 5 Core Quality Tools : ​

      1. APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) ​
      2. PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) ​
      3. FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) 
      4. MSA (Measurement Systems Analysis) ​
      5. SPC (Statistical Process Control)
Aplomb Digital is a leading supplier of industrial vision inspection systems.

We provide total system integration and,  as such, are a natural industrial partner in turning your inspection requirements into reality.

Modern production plant installation and commissioning requires careful and precise planning and continual liaison to ensure smooth integration into your factory environment with minimal disturbance to current production  and personnel.

We are a systems integrators with the capability to develop inspection techniques that utilise high quality products from a range of different sources.

We do not manufacture hardware, and as a consequence have the advantageof being able to choose the best hardware mix for a specific application.

We have the vision to understand and analyse the real inspection problems and objectives of manufacturing companies and the ability to provide practical solutions.

Vision Systems

We have also worked with many of the major law enforcement agencies around the world and supplied systems that are used in forensic analysis.

Where required we have a full mechanical design team who are capable of turning the requirements of the image analysis into a practical machine capable of being used in the relevant environment. We have full stainless steel manufacturing capability where this is necessary.

AugFlow

Workflow Solution

AugFlow is a smart workflow solution, designed to bring hands-free, step-by-step digital procedures directly into your smart glasses.

Workflows can be created in the Augmex Online portal with a drag & drop of text, images, videos or documents.

AugFlow transforms traditional checklists and work instructions into interactive, voice– and vision-controlled workflows—perfect for use in factories, technical services, and field operations. The smart glasses that are in this group will have all these workflows available at startup.

With AugFlow, teams can repair, inspect, or manufact entirely through their smart glasses. Users can advance through workflows using voice commands (e.g., “OK” or “next step”), barcode scans, or by taking photos for documentation.

All data—including images and times tamps—is securely stored and synced to the Augmex Online dashboard.

The platform also includes an intuitive web dashboard where users can create, manage, and review workflows with an easy-to–use drag-and-drop builder.

NEXUS i2i

Connecting engineering information to insights that answer the questions that matter​

THE PITCH

A system of insight, not another system of record​

NEXUS i2i creates a scalable reasoning layer across existing engineering and business systems, purpose-built for complex engineered products such as aircraft.

THE APPROACH

Reason about the product, not just the data​

NEXUS i2i combines analytical capabilities specifically suited to complex products and programmes.​

Graph

Structure, relationships and dependencies​

Spatial

Where things are and how they relate in space​

Geometric

Shape, similarity and physical interaction​

Temporal​

How the product and programme evolve over time​

Start with the question. Connect the required information. Apply the product reasoning needed to answer it.​

NEXUS i2i consists of two core technologies:

​Product Data Query Engine Geometric Indexing Engine.​

Our geometry engine analyzes CAD models at scale, generating high‑performance shape signatures to identify duplicates, near‑duplicates , and functionally similar parts.​

Unlike traditional analytics that only understand tables and time series, NEXUS i2i analyzes 3D geometry and complex product structures.​

Why NEXUS i2i

Nearly every manufacturer struggles with duplicate parts, fragmented product data, and inefficient design reuse. These inefficiencies cost large organizations tens of millions annually across engineering, procurement, and manufacturing.

NEXUS i2i enables:

  • Lower engineering effort through component reuse
  • Reduced inventory and part proliferation
  • Smarter procurement decisions driven by geometric similarity
  • More efficient manufacturing via process reuse and better scheduling
  • Index and search geometry at scale

At Aplomb Digital, our agile engineering culture and lack of legacy constraints allow us to implement advanced technologies quickly. Unlike vendors who push you toward standard products or follow a rigid roadmap, Aplomb Digital focuses exclusively on your unique solution.

 

NEXUS I2I Colaborative Workflow

1 Define Problem

Work with customer to clearly define the issue/problem.​

2 Define Domain Model​​

Create domain model and data structure.​​

3 Map Data Sources
​

Map underlying data sources to domain model.​​

4 Present
​

Configure the Nexus I2I Insights Dashboard applying information visualisation design principles.​​​

Data Security – Single Sign On (SSO)​

How will information be secure to view? Access to the NEXUS i2i dashboard is protected by SSO, so users authenticate once through your organisation's existing identity provider rather than holding separate dashboard credentials.​

How SSO works

  • A user request access on the NEXUS login page redirects them to a trusted identity provider (IdP).​
  • An IdP is a secure, cloud-based software service that holds a user database (local or cloud) and acts as a central gatekeeper to safely log users into multiple applications.​

Verification​​

  • IdP verifies the user’s identity according to the existing corporate login details and policies (MFA)​
  • Signed token issued to NEXUS​
  • NEXUS trusts the token and allows user through​

​​

Reasoning​

  • Gives engineers and managers a reliable basis to audit progress and spot bottlenecks.​
  • No new passwords​
  • Central control​
  • Role based view​
  • Auditing​
