Ergonomic Machine Operation
December 1, 2015
Displays from the Automation Panel series are available in nine different swing arm models and can be equipped with additional switching elements as needed.
B&R offers its latest line of swing arm systems. These fully enclosed panels are available in a wide range of variants and feature IP65 protection, allowing them to be placed optimally on machines.
Multi-touch widescreen panels are available in sizes ranging from 18.5" to 24" with either HD ready or full HD resolution. The larger displays and higher resolution are designed to include even more information on each screen – an advantage for user ergonomics.
If space is limited yet large displays are still necessary, a 21.5" model in portrait format is also available. With optional side handles, it is designed to be easy to maneuver and operate these devices at the machine. Two system variants with analog resistive touchscreens are also available in 4:3 format, allowing users to upgrade their operator hardware without having to modify their existing HMI applications in any way.
These panels are connected using standard cables run conveniently through the swing arm shaft – even after mounting. And for those who choose Smart Display Link 3 – which allows up to 100 meters between the PC and panel – the slim RJ45 connector makes cabling even easier.
These swing arm systems can be equipped with buttons, selector switches, key switches and an integrated E-stop button as needed. Due to an integrated RFID reader, individual access rights can be assigned to anyone from service engineers to system operators.
