Bosch: OGS (Operator Guidance System)
Overview
Industry 4.0, diversified production, batch size of one: The smaller the quantities and the more complex the operation, the more demanding are the requirements for the operators. It is getting more important to provide an infrastructure, which supports the operator to minimize errors, improve process reliability and product quality as well as keeping cycle times low.

OGS is a Windows®-based software package, that is especially optimized for use with the Rexroth tightening systems. With a clear visual representation of the work at hand, the software guides the operator and controls connected tools. Included is an easy to use GUI to edit the workflow definitions. Flexible interfaces allow for connecting various components (e.g. ID readers) and seamless integration into the Industry 4.0 infrastructure. The system can send detailed information about the process steps, the tools (e.g. battery charge levels) and process result data (including measurement curves). This even allows tools without i4.0 connectivity (e.g. torque wrenches) to be integrated into the modern IT world.
