Touch-optimized user interface for the machines and systems of a packaging machine manufacturer. The user-focused and intuitive application is used on multi-touch panels at the machines. The interface has a modular structure and provides a uniform design for all different types of machines. The navigation concept separates day-to-day tasks from setup functions. The dashboard's contents are individually tailored to each machine type. Users are able to compile their own favorite functions. It is possible to control both individual machines and complete lines. Monitoring on mobile devices supplements the functional scope. The operator control has a process-oriented structure and is easy to understand. In the case of complex configuration tasks the user is supported actively with step-by-step instructions. A context-sensitive help guarantees rapid access to information whenever required. The reduced and consistent design provides the volume of information in a compact form. Important process values are communicated directly and comprehensibly, ensuring that the operators are optimally supported in their work.Cast: HMI Project GmbH
