Clear displays and a common programming language, including a huge library of faceplates, help confirm that you get the best possible perspectives of your machine performance. With users at multiple levels in your organization all seeing the same views of the machines, you speed up the ability to manage production…which is a story you can all get behind.
Driving Better Decision Making
Modern HMI Software: Connecting People to Information
Good things happen when operators, technicians and engineers have relevant production information at their fingertips. They can meet production targets, reduce waste and energy usage, improve processes, quickly resolve problems, and more. This eBook explores how Modern HMI Software makes this possible.
How a Modern HMI Changes the Status Quo
Connect Workers to the Info They Need to Make Better Decisions
Today’s industrial operations run on information to meet production targets, to reduce waste and energy usage, to improve processes, and more. But information is only effective if workers can readily access it and easily understand it. Modern HMI software can give workers the information they need, in the time, place and format that they need it. That’s why HMI software is the cornerstone of any information-driven operation.
