HMI Programming
A Human Machine Interface (HMI) is the manner through which an operator can control a machine to perform its function. An HMI can be as simple as the lever on a toaster but is generally used for a self-contained display panel that contains one or more screens to control a system. HMIs are also a critical component of most SCADA systems. HMI interface well-developed HMI can improve operator efficiency, safety, and reduce machine downtime. DMC collaborates with our clients to identify the elements needed for their HMI, then works with our in-house user interface (UI) designer and a full team of HMI programming experts to create sleek and modern interfaces tailored to your system.
SCADA System Development
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) can be used as a sophisticated HMI but has power and features well beyond what an HMI can offer. These features can include facility-wide control functions, data collection, video, reporting, diagnostics, key performance indicators (KPI), and even predictive maintenance functions. Using the right mix of available packages and custom features, DMC is an expert at implementing SCADA systems to meet customer needs.
Platform Expertise
Our experienced engineers have programmed HMI and SCADA solutions on numerous platforms from various vendors.
Automatrol has implemented hundreds of HMI/SCADA solutions for clients in a wide range of industries, including food and beverage, oil and gas, packaging, and automotive.
