Industrial & Manufacturing
Frame Sixty is a US-based studio building virtual and augmented reality for industrial and manufacturing companies. We develop XR for the factory floor — assembly and safety training, AR work instructions, maintenance support, and digital twins — deployed on Meta Quest, Apple Vision Pro, and mobile devices. Our team has shipped 100+ apps with more than 10 million downloads.
Today, VR for industrial teams covers six core jobs on the floor — from day-one VR manufacturing training to the capital decisions behind a line change.
We build VR training that lets operators practice assembly sequences and equipment operation on virtual replicas of your actual machines. Trainees repeat procedures until they're fluent — without downtime, scrap, or pulling a line supervisor to babysit.
We develop VR safety training for the scenarios you can't safely rehearse: lockout/tagout, confined spaces, emergency response, hazard recognition. Workers experience the consequence of a mistake in the headset instead of on the floor.
We replace paper travelers and static PDFs with AR work instructions: step-by-step guidance anchored to the actual equipment, visible on a tablet or headset while both hands stay on the work.
We build AR maintenance support that overlays procedures, torque specs, and live equipment data where the technician is looking. Less time flipping manuals, fewer second visits, and a record of every completed step.
We develop see-what-I-see remote assistance: a technician on the floor shares their view, and an expert anywhere annotates directly onto the equipment. One expert supports every site instead of flying to one.
We create walkable digital twins of production lines and facilities — for layout planning, training environments, and reviews you can hold in a headset before committing capital to a change.
Industrial XR requires extreme precision. Our dedicated 3D artists use 3D scanner workflows and precise retopology so digital twins and equipment replicas match the real machines — down to the fasteners.
Every mesh and texture is optimized to hold smooth rendering performance on standalone processors like Meta Quest 3 and Apple Vision Pro, without sacrificing visual fidelity or dimensional accuracy.
Augmented reality in manufacturing puts information where the work happens: instructions anchored to the machine, inspection criteria overlaid on the part, live sensor data floating beside the equipment it describes. We build manufacturing AR for tablets, phones, and headsets — usually starting with one line and one process, then scaling what works.
From microscopic assembly details to massive warehouse logistics, we bring industrial environments to life with stunning spatial clarity.
Interactive guides for complex physical workflows.
Safe environments for high-stakes safety training.
1:1 scale replicas of entire factory floors for pre-production planning and capital review.
The same XR building blocks — training simulations, AR guidance, digital twins — apply across industrial sectors. We've built for enterprise environments where compliance, uptime, and scale are the requirements that matter.
Warehouse optimization, spatial picking guidance, and material handling simulations.
High-security maintenance training and tactical equipment familiarization.
Assembly line virtual validation and dealership service technician AR support.
Cleanroom procedural training and complex lab equipment operation without risk of contamination.
Maintenance, repair, and overhaul training plus guided inspection for airframes, engines, and ground equipment.
Turbine, substation, and plant safety training for hazardous environments where mistakes are unrepeatable.
Operator training and service guidance for machines too large, costly, or dangerous to practice on.
Regulated assembly training and cleanroom procedures with completion records built in from the start.
Empower your frontline workforce with the spatial computing tools they need to perform at their best, from day one. Done right, VR for industrial teams becomes part of how the whole organization trains, plans, and ships.
Schedule a DemoEvery deployment of VR for industrial teams is hardware-agnostic — optimized for the realities of the floor, with robust hand tracking so gloves stay on and controllers stay in the case.
Cost-effective, scalable VR and mixed reality with color passthrough for complex training fleets.
Ultra-high-fidelity spatial computing for executive reviews, intricate digital twins, and premium maintenance support.
Accessible AR work instructions running on the facility hardware you already own.
Training, maintenance, and work instructions are the most common starting points for VR and AR in manufacturing, but the same spatial building blocks can support other industrial workflows. The right application depends on where physical context, repeatability, or a shared 3D view removes friction from the process.
Overlay inspection points, reference geometry, checklists, or acceptance criteria on the part and capture project-defined results in context.
Guide workers to the correct location, part, quantity, and sequence through a hands-free or mobile interface.
Review a proposed machine, cell, or layout at full scale to discuss access, clearances, workflow, and placement before a physical change.
Use interactive 3D models, exploded views, and guided sequences to teach internal assemblies, service procedures, and product operation.
Turn experienced-worker procedures into repeatable visual content that can be distributed across teams and locations.
Bring distributed stakeholders around the same full-scale model to inspect, annotate, and discuss a proposed product or environment.
The strongest industrial XR programs usually begin with a focused process that can be evaluated by the people who will use and manage it. Frame Sixty scopes the first build so the team can test the interaction, content, hardware, integration, and deployment approach before expanding.
Select the process, users, environment, target device, required systems, and criteria the pilot must demonstrate.
Review SOPs, manuals, CAD or 3D assets, process video, subject-matter-expert access, and technical constraints.
Map the sequence, spatial UI, interactions, feedback, safety boundaries, and assessment or completion logic.
Build the core interaction and test it on the selected hardware before producing the entire content library.
Test with representative users, review the procedure with operational stakeholders, and refine the experience.
Complete content, integrations, device deployment, documentation, updates, and expansion to additional procedures or sites.
The cost of industrial VR development depends on scope: a single-procedure training pilot is a different budget from a multi-site rollout with LMS integration. Project work is quoted as a fixed bid after a discovery call, so the full cost is clear before development begins.
The discovery call determines the right first phase. It does not commit your team to a full rollout.

Workers practice procedures on virtual replicas of real machines, and teams review line changes in a headset before committing to them — without downtime or risk.
The cost of industrial VR depends on scope: a single-procedure training pilot is a different budget from a multi-site deployment with LMS integration. Project work is quoted as a fixed bid after a discovery call, so the full cost is clear before development begins.
Published research on VR training has repeatedly reported faster skill acquisition and stronger retention compared with classroom and video methods, which is why manufacturers keep expanding headset programs. Results depend on instructional design — we build training with the safety and operations leaders who will run it.
AR work instructions are step-by-step guidance displayed on a tablet or headset and anchored to the actual equipment — the next step appears where the work happens, instead of on paper or a screen across the room. They update centrally, capture completion records, and keep both hands free.
Meta Quest 3 is the default for training fleets — low device cost makes multi-headset programs practical. Tablets and phones carry AR work instructions without new hardware. Apple Vision Pro fits high-fidelity review and planning. Most industrial deployments mix devices by task, and we help you sequence that.
Yes — integration is usually what turns a pilot into a program. We connect training results to your LMS, pull live equipment data into AR overlays from your existing systems, and work within your IT and security review. Integration scope is defined during discovery.
We deploy through enterprise device management — Meta Quest for Business and standard MDM tooling — covering provisioning, app updates, kiosk modes, and access control. Rollouts are staged: one line or site first, then scaled with the processes that worked.
Your company owns the application, code, and training content — our contracts assign full IP ownership, including source, 3D assets, and integrations. We sign NDAs before discovery when needed; protecting proprietary processes and equipment designs is standard practice in our enterprise work.
Frame Sixty pairs senior XR talent with enterprise delivery: 100+ shipped apps, more than 10 million downloads, seven published patents, and deployment experience across headset fleets and mobile devices. You work with a team that builds for the floor, not the demo room.
