Felder AG Success Story

Faster setup. Fewer errors. Profitable production — even for single custom pieces.

Operating CNC machines demands absolute precision. But positioning non-squared workpieces is a challenge — and traditional methods are time-consuming, error-prone, and inefficient.

The solution: Hololight Stream.
With Hololight Stream as the underlying technology, Felder’s AR application F4®Vision enables intuitive, real-time positioning of clamping devices and workpieces. Operators can virtually preview pre-milled parts in 3D and align them directly on the machine — without relying on fixed reference points.

The impact: Efficiency
Faster setup, reduced errors, and efficient production workflows, even for batch size one.

At the same time, Hololight Stream enables the real-time visualization of complex 3D content by offloading rendering to powerful external servers — allowing high-detail data like cutting paths or start points to be displayed smoothly on mobile XR devices. Since the 3D application itself never leaves the local infrastructure and only encrypted image data is transmitted, existing security standards remain fully intact.

“This is only possible with the streaming technology by Hololight. The streaming technology is the key. If this wouldn’t work perfectly, nobody would use it.”
