Badge login
Operators log in by scanning their badge. The workstation loads their experience level and language automatically.
Operator training
Let the workstation carry the knowledge, not the supervisor.
New operators learn while they produce, with step-by-step guidance and real-time feedback on every action. Experienced operators get only what they need. Expert knowledge stays in the process when people move on.

The problem
Training depends on people who are needed elsewhere
Skilled operators are hard to find and hard to keep. Each new or temporary operator needs time and supervision before they can work independently, and that supervision usually comes from your most experienced people.
At the same time, process knowledge is often undocumented. When experienced workers retire or leave, their expertise leaves with them. Classroom training and paper manuals do not close the gap, because the knowledge is needed at the workbench, at the moment of execution.
The Arkite approach
Just-in-time guidance at the workstation
Arkite replaces classroom training and paper manuals with structured guidance where the work happens. Instructions are projected onto the workbench, step by step, highlighting the correct part and location.
With Arkite VALIDATE, a 3D sensor checks every action in real time. New operators receive immediate feedback, so they can work independently earlier and with less supervision.
Guidance that adapts to the operator
Experience levels
By default Training, Basic and Advanced. Per level you define which texts, images and videos are shown and how projections behave.
Detection speed
Detections react faster for experienced operators, so they are not slowed down by guidance they no longer need.
Multi-language
Instructions appear in the language of the logged-in user, and operators can switch language at any moment.
AI translation
With the optional AI integration, all instructions and texts are translated from the default language: per field, for all empty fields or for the entire project. New lines and sites start in the operators' own language.
Real-time feedback
Each correct action moves the workflow forward. An incorrect action triggers an immediate warning.
Rich media
Engineers add text, images and video to steps. Photos and videos can be sent from an Android phone with the Arkite Companion app.
Knowledge captured once in a digital workflow is available on every workstation, in every shift, in every language.
Data that proves the improvement
Arkite records which operator and experience level performed each job, so onboarding progress becomes visible.
- Cycle times per operator against expected cycle time
- Step durations showing where new operators hesitate
- Errors per operator, step and variant
- Experience level used for each job
- Progress over time in Power BI or other BI tools
- Job output per hour, day or week
Frequently asked questions
How does Arkite support operator onboarding?
New operators follow projected step-by-step instructions at the workstation and, with VALIDATE, receive real-time feedback on every action. They learn while producing, with less need for supervision.
What is the Experience Level feature?
It adapts the guidance to each operator. By default there are three levels, Training, Basic and Advanced. Per level you define which visualizations are shown, how projections behave and how fast detections react.
Is Arkite a training tool?
No. Arkite is a manufacturing execution platform for manual operations. Faster onboarding is one result of guiding and validating production work, alongside error reduction, traceability and production data.
Can operators work in their own language?
Yes. Instructions can be defined in as many languages as required and are shown in the language of the logged-in user, who can switch language at the workstation at any moment. With the optional AI integration, all texts are translated automatically from the default language: per field, for all empty fields or for the entire project at once. The integration uses OpenAI or Anthropic with your own key and is disabled by default.
