When talking about packaging machinery or packaging equipment, we usually emphasize machine speed, its functions and applications. That is why we decided to use this article to discuss the importance of HMI (human machine interface). After all, no matter how advanced a packaging machine, it still needs manual operation, which means that the packaging efficiency depends to the operator’s easy and intuitive use of the machine. In the following lines, we will briefly introduce the history of human-machine interface in the packaging industry and explain the most important aspects of HMI.
a little history …
In short, ” HMI is a medium that interacts or controls the operator or the entire packaging process. Many years ago, it consists of an indicator light and a hard work button on the control panel, without any visual display. The operator simply listens to the feedback and the sound while the control panel button is constantly observing the packaging machine or process.
With the advancement of technology, the text panel or alphabetically-based operator interface appears, and some hard work buttons and indicators are replaced. Now, the operator can read the pre-programming messages displayed on the LCD screen to obtain more visual information about the condition of the packaging process or packaging device. This is a huge advantage.
With further development of technology, more complete control systems and visual products have been introduced, which has triggered a revolution in industrial automation. High-resolution and touch screen graphics show the flexibility of the screen that provides programmers with a larger screen. More importantly, users or operators do not need to scan the entire device, you know what happened during the process. Everything you need to know is displayed on the graphical interface in front of him. High-resolution and touch screen graphics show the flexibility of the screen that provides programmers with a larger screen.
More importantly, the user or operator knows what happened during the process without scanning the entire device. Everything you need to know is displayed on the graphical interface in front of him.
