Human machine interface is a graphical software application that provides the operators or users with the information regarding the operational process, enabling interaction between humans and machines so that the machines receive instructions and execute the tasks mentioned by the operators. In other words, an HMI is a central control system that helps in communicating operator inputs and receives data and feedback from various PLC logic controllers in real time. It offers insights into what is happening within the control system. This tracks valuable output information for various processes, including cycle counts, times, and recipes. HMI improves user performance and ensures data safety. Although initial high costs associated with the deployment of these products pose a challenge to its production, HMIs are not limited to only manufacturing companies.
