3D Machine HMI
Give operators visual context with 3D status, guided workflows, and meaningful diagnostics
The Problem
Many companies face similar challenges when trying to create value from their technical data and processes.
Many HMIs end up as buttons and alarms without context. Operators can see something is wrong, but not where, why, or what's safe to do. When the pace is high, troubleshooting becomes guesswork, and each new employee learns the hard way.
These challenges often result in concrete problems:
- Alarms without visual explanation: what does it mean on the machine?
- Hard to locate errors quickly, especially on complex systems
- Procedures are performed differently because UI doesn't guide clearly
Why It Matters
Why does this matter? Look at the broader impact:
An unclear HMI costs in stops, errors, and support time. The more complex the machine, the more the UI becomes the machine's manual in practice.
Key metrics we focus on:
Time to troubleshoot
Number of repeated stops
Operator errors and rework
Our Solution
Here's how we approach the solution:
3D HMI with context showing the machine visually so status and alarms can be understood spatially
Status layers and highlights with color coding directly on the 3D model, making it clear where it's happening
Guided workflows with step-by-step screens for operation, changeover, cleaning, and service
Diagnostics that make sense going from alarm to cause to recommended action
Results
The comparison between the starting point and the result shows the concrete value the solution can create.
HMI shows something is wrong but not what to do about it
Operator gets a visual here-and-now overview and clear guidance when something deviates
The concrete results include:
- Faster error localization because alarms get physical context
- More consistent operation because the UI guides procedures rather than assuming experience
- Less dependence on the one person who always knows, because knowledge lives in the interface and workflows
