Reduce technical manual consultation times with Sophia
On 500-piece-per-minute packaging lines, every second of downtime is a huge loss. Operators can’t browse manuals; they need to know exactly what to do to restart the line.
In the industrial sector, especially on high-speed lines such as packaging or bottling, every second counts. A machine downtime on a 500-piece-per-minute line generates enormous instantaneous losses: in this scenario, every minute lost searching through pages of technical documentation can translate into critical production delays and high operating costs.
Sophia, the artificial intelligence module integrated into Acty, represents a breakthrough for OEM companies. Sophia is a tool designed to drastically reduce the time it takes to access technical knowledge and increase the productivity of field operators, providing immediate responses to restart production as quickly as possible.

Instant access to technical manuals thanks to AI
Sophia allows technicians and operators to directly access the exact point in the technical manual they need, eliminating time-consuming manual document consultation. It’s not a simple “Ctrl+F search” or a traditional keyword search: thanks to semantic search, artificial intelligence interprets the intent of the user’s query – even if expressed in natural or approximate language – and provides a direct link to the specific page in the manual containing the solution.
In industrial contexts where staff often have different backgrounds and languages, Sophia breaks down communication barriers and resolution times: AI integrates multilingual interaction capabilities, allowing an operator to query an original technical manual written in another language (e.g., German or English) in their native language (e.g., Spanish), receiving precise answers without the need for prior translation.
Thanks to the integration with Mixed Reality devices such as HoloLens, Sophia can also be used in immersive mode, superimposing digital information on the real environment.
Optimize maintenance with always up-to-date documentation
One of the main problems in industrial maintenance is the use of obsolete manuals, which are difficult to update and distribute. With Sophia, every technical document can be updated in real time and made available in just a few clicks to all operators in the field or on site.
Each machine can have its own customized documentation, kept centrally updated and accessible from smartphones, tablets or smart glasses, without the need to install dedicated apps.
This translates into immediate problem resolution, essential for minimizing downtime costs, fewer operational errors, and more effective maintenance. Furthermore, compliance with quality and safety standards is ensured thanks to integration with constantly updated checklists, audits, and procedural controls.
