Often the question industrial machine manufacturers are faced with is, “Should I make or buy the HMI?”.

A Human Machine Interface or HMI is defined as a feature or component of a certain device or software application that enables humans to engage and interact with machines. Some examples of common Human Machine Interface devices that we encounter in our daily lives include touchscreens and keyboards.

Open Platform Communications (OPC) and OPC UA (Unified Architecture) are standards that facilitate the exchange of data between Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs), servers, clients and other machinery for the purpose of interconnectivity and information flow.
