Overview
Seamlessly integrated hardware and software for every visualisation task.
A complete system of hardware and software that offers a consistent range of functions– for a wide range of applications in every industry.
The use of graphical representation and user interfaces to monitor, control, and optimise industrial processes enhances operational efficiency by providing real-time insights into production activities. Through graphical displays, operators can visualise machine statuses, production metrics, and potential issues, allowing for swift decision-making.
Dashboards consolidate data from various sensors and machines, offering a comprehensive overview of the production floor. Trend analysis aids in identifying patterns and optimising workflows, while alarm systems promptly notify operators of deviations or malfunctions.
Moreover, visualisation contributes to a more intuitive understanding of the production process, facilitating training for operators and maintenance personnel. As Industry 4.0 advances, visualisation in factory automation continues to play a pivotal role in achieving smart, connected, and efficient manufacturing environments.

Key advantages
Beneficial outcomes of a successful and future-proof visualisation platforms.
Improved operational efficiency
Visualisation allows operators and managers to monitor the factory’s processes, machines, and systems in real-time. By highlighting bottlenecks, underutilised resources, and areas for improvement, this immediate insight can help identify issues, inefficiencies, and potential disruptions as they occur, allowing for timely corrective actions leading to increased production efficiency and resource utilisation.
Better quality control and process optimisation
Visualisation tools can help track product quality and detect defects in real-time, ensuring that only high-quality products are dispatched to customers. By also revealing the areas of the production process that can be fine-tuned or streamlined, improved visualisation can lead to cost savings and better resource allocation.
Enhanced Situational Awareness
Advanced interface enables clear and intuitive representation of the factory’s status, historical data visualisation tools which allows easy analysis of trends, patterns, and historical performance significantly improving situational awareness and decision-making. This can help operators respond to changing conditions effectively for process optimisation and long-term planning.
Shorter engineering time and reduced downtime
Improved visualisation enables promptly identifying maintenance issues that can be addressed proactively, reducing unexpected downtime and costly disruptions to production while saving valuable engineering time.
Enabling sustainability strategies
Improved visualisation enables efficient monitoring of energy consumption and visualising usage patterns helping businesses achieve their sustainability goals.
Increased safety and remote accessibility
Remote access capabilites enable off-site personnel to monitor and control the factory, which can be especially useful for troubleshooting, support and ensure safety for human workforce particularly in unsuitable environment conditions.
Reduced training requirements
Standardised operating concepts, flexibility and user-friendly attributes enable shorter training time and fewer human errors.
