Packing with the IWK HMI
A standardized HMI for a group of companies with different types of machines – such was the goal of this award-winning HMI project. IWK, based in Stutensee, Baden-Wurttemberg, used VisiWin to develop a new HMI with an easy to use visualization for their machines.
IWK’s new HMI is a modern user interface, with a clear-cut design and all required information at the right place. A schematic representation shows the individual production stages. Multi-touch gestures and animations facilitate user interaction, and assistants guide the user through tasks. This is how packaging works in Industry 4.0.
