Does your maintenance team need another tool to restore equipment to operation after a fail?

Are there times when one more piece of information would have saved hours or days in production downtime?

Utilizing HMI (human machine interface) technology is the solution.

When properly programmed, an HMI is much more than a control start/stop device, becoming an advanced diagnostic tool.

Its real value lies in:

— Being able to manipulate solenoids, cylinders, actuators, motors, and other electrically controlled devices. With a visual indication of your sensor status at each point, your technicians will be able to determine any electrical cause for production stoppage.

— When married with a quick cycle time PLC program, the combination will give you years of repeatable results in optimum production.
