HMI is a touch screen for people to control equipment.People can use this touch screen(HMI)to visualize the status,parameters and other information of the machine equipment,making it easier to control the equipment production information.
What is hmi used for?The application scenarios of human-machine interface are very wide:
industrial control system:in industrial production,HMI is used to monitor and control the production process.For example,engineers control production equipment through machine control panels,operating tables,touch screens and other equipment,adjust parameters inside and collect desired data;
Smart home system:Smart home system is a popular whole-house customized control system recently.Users can remotely control and manage smart home devices through HMI and the Internet of Things
Transportation system:HMI is also widely used in the field of transportation,such as cockpit control panels,operation interfaces,vehicle systems,etc.;
Agricultural automation:In the field of agriculture,the combination of HMI and PLC can control the status of agricultural equipment:such as irrigation systems,temperature and humidity in greenhouses,which is a relatively mature application at present;
Education and training:In the field of education,HMI can also be used as a learning board and simulator to facilitate interaction between students and teachers;
Logistics and supply chain management:In the field of logistics and supply chain management,HMI is used in storage equipment,transportation vehicles and logistics management systems to facilitate operators to track goods,manage warehouses and coordinate logistics.
Construction and real estate:In construction and real estate projects,HMI is used for automation systems,building management and smart home control,providing an interface for users to interact and control building facilities.
In addition to the above,HMI is widely used in medical equipment,information display systems,energy management systems,military aerospace,self-service terminal equipment,intelligent parking systems,street light control management systems and other fields.In short,almost all devices that need to be controlled require PLC,and HMI is required to control the equipment with the visual operation of PLC.
Unimat has been focusing on the R&D and production of HMI and PLC for 20 years,with rich experience and support for free prototype testing.If you have HMI and PLC needs,please let us know where your HMI is used,and we will recommend relevant products and solutions to you.
