Automation technology

Automation tech­nol­ogy is a dis­ci­pline that spans many indus­tries and fields. Its three core areas are mon­i­tor­ing, con­trol and reg­u­la­tion of processes. 

A key devel­op­ment in recent years is that time-​to-​market is becom­ing increas­ingly shorter, even for automa­tion projects, and sys­tem providers need reli­able com­po­nent sup­pli­ers. With over 20 years of expe­ri­ence with HMIs in the field of automa­tion and mechan­i­cal engi­neer­ing, we can offer you short devel­op­ment times and fast deliv­ery times. From multi-​touch dis­plays with foil or glass sur­faces, clas­sic mem­brane key­boards, metal or plas­tic hous­ings and front pan­els, to web pan­els for decen­tralised mon­i­tor­ing, we are your one-​stop shop for every­thing you need. To under­line this com­mit­ment, we are also a mem­ber of the “Electrical Automation” divi­sion of the VDMA.

The most important performance characteristics of an HMI in automation technology

We have briefly sum­marised the most impor­tant per­for­mance fea­tures of an HMI or multi-​touch panel/​web panel in automa­tion technology:

  • Protection class IP65 or higher
  • Resistant to clean­ing agents and oil
  • Design 24/​7 operation
  • Impact resis­tance, e.g. from a ham­mer or screwdriver
  • Long-​term avail­abil­ity of func­tional com­po­nents
    Electromagnetic com­pat­i­bil­ity – EMC in accor­dance with indus­try stan­dards (e.g. DIN EN 61004–4)
  • Usability with gloves
  • Mechanical resis­tance of the surfaces

The indus­tries and areas of appli­ca­tion in which our automa­tion cus­tomers are mainly rep­re­sented are as fol­lows: indus­trial and mechan­i­cal engi­neer­ing, med­ical tech­nol­ogy, phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals and med­i­cines, food indus­try, analy­sis and mea­sur­ing equip­ment, build­ing tech­nol­ogy and many more.
