Argos

NEW: Argos - real-time support now also device-independent

This guarantees you fast and direct help, even in times of crisis: With the help of Argos, the Krones expert is immediately in the middle of the line in the event of a malfunction. He can thus support the machine operator in troubleshooting and problem-solving in real time via live video and audio transmission to Krones with the aid of augmented reality.  

With our new system update, it is now even easier for you to use: in addition to the Smart Glasses, it is now also possible to use other end devices such as smartphones or tablets. You simply start the download via the corresponding app store of the device and can thus install the software easily and quickly, without additional costs, on your own smart end devices. The operation of the AR application has also been improved even further, so that 3D markings can be set or instructions shared even more easily and the app can be operated more simply and intuitively.

As Argos is now included as a standard option in the support contract, it no longer has to be booked separately for our support contract customers. And even if you don't have a support contract with us yet, you can now use AR Support via our Service Line. All you need to do is sign a data protection agreement upfront.

If you are interested, simply contact your Krones representative at lcs.cm@krones.com.
