Who We Are

Aligned Vision has been helping companies to accelerate quality manufacturing since 1987, when we were founded as Assembly Guidance. Today, our laser guidance and smart 3D automatic inspection systems, mobile process control and digital thread technologies are empowering manufacturers to bring the benefits of digital production to their shop floors. Our history of technology “firsts” reflects our guiding principle – to help manufacturers uncover hidden costs and then reduce or eliminate them with our assistance and expertise.
