Bastian Material Handling Introduces Animated Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs)

June 22, 2009 - PRLog -- Indianapolis, IN– BMH’s industry-leading Human- Machine Interfaces (HMIs) have made yet another leap forward. Our intuitive 3-D rendered view screens now have the addition of animation which not only depict flowing product, but also are representative of the actual product located at these positions.

This actual representation allows for real-time identification of the product and the ability to query for additional, related information. The 3-D graphical views of our HMIs provide easy to use visual maps of the facility with real-time feedback and diagnostics on the health of your system to ensure maximum operational performance.  The real-to-life renderings, perspective views, and intuitive interface allow for even the newest operators to interact with the system like an expert.  The Exacta Human Machine Interface (HMI) can shut down idle equipment when not in use and can also monitor the energy consumption of the controls in your system.

Real-time visibility with IP cameras and networked DVRs, remote web viewing, predictive maintenance, integration of system drawings, proactive alerts on alarms and operational issues, logging of statistics, maintenance instructions with videos, and now the addition of animated product tracking, all in a non-proprietary open-source Windows-based solution…
