How to Choose the Right HMI
Choosing HMI requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors to ensure optimal performance for your industrial applications
Screen Parameters
Choose the screen size according to the application and installation space. High-resolution display provides clearer visibility for complex industrial interfaces.
Touch Technology
Capacitive touch responds quickly but is sensitive to moisture. Resistive touch offers strong adaptability and lower cost for harsh environments.
Display Technology
TFT, OLED, LED each have their advantages. TFT displays are particularly suitable for most industrial scenarios with excellent reliability.
Environmental Adaptation
Industrial environments require attention to temperature, humidity, dust and water resistance. Choose high protection level (IP65 or above) equipment.
Durability
Extreme conditions are often encountered in industry. Pay attention to equipment's resistance to vibration, high temperature, and corrosion.
System Platform
Consider the operating system (Windows CE, Linux, Android) and development tools, which will significantly impact later development and maintenance.
Technical Considerations
Interface Protocol
HMI needs to communicate with other devices effectively. Select products that support corresponding interfaces and protocols for seamless integration.
Power & User Experience
Power Consumption
Select according to power requirements to ensure consumption meets system specifications and operational efficiency.
User Experience
Interface design should be simple and intuitive, considering touch response speed, layout optimization, and ergonomic button design.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about HMI and embedded solutions
What is HMI?
HMI (Human Machine Interface) is an interface that allows operators to interact with machines, systems, or processes. HMI can take various forms, such as touch screens, control panels, displays, or software applications, providing a means of visualizing and controlling complex systems.
In industrial automation, HMI is used to monitor and control production equipment, such as PLC control systems and robots.
What is the difference between HMI and PLC?
PLC
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is an industrial computer used to control various equipment in automation systems. It receives data from sensors, processes it according to pre-programmed logic, and sends instructions to actuators to control machine operation.
HMI
HMI (Human Machine Interface) is the interface for operators to interact with the PLC control system. It allows operators to monitor device status, set parameters, start/stop devices, etc. The HMI itself does not control the machine, but transmits operator instructions to the PLC and presents PLC data visually.
How does HMI software integrate with cloud services?
HMI software integrates with cloud services using standardized protocols and secure connectivity to provide real-time access, remote control, advanced analytics, and scalable infrastructure.
This integration supports smarter, more efficient, and more collaborative industrial operations, while addressing security and latency challenges through a combination of cloud and edge computing.
