GEA SmartControl HMI at a glance
GEA SmartControl HMI (Human-Machine Interface) is a newly developed user interface for food processing and packaging equipment, either stand-alone or connected in a line. GEA’s user-centric approach keeps focus on the individually operating users of the production facilities.
Its smart functions for line integration offer immediate added value for line applications, so they can be used immediately and without further configuration. GEA SmartControl HMI enables more than just integration with GEA equipment – it also provides access to third-party user interfaces. The new GEA SmartControl HMI platform delivers unprecedented levels of transparency over current and historical process data and events. The highly modular and hygienic hardware design of the multi-touch display allows for ergonomic operation that meets even the most complex user requirements.
GEA SmartControl HMI is now available for GEA OptiSlicer, GEA PowerPak PLUS and GEA SmartPacker.
Improved user-friendliness thanks to user-oriented design
Transparent process information & recipe handling
HMI integration into the line
The new GEA SmartControl HMI can also be retrofitted to existing machines, adding value and new functions to previously installed units as well. Depending on the year of manufacture, this can be done by replacing the HMI system or upgrading the control system to the latest standard.
Permission assignments to role
A new role-based user management with fine granular permission system supports better adaptation to the needs of your team structure. Raise process safety and reflect responsibilities according to your organisational setup. The management of individual users is accompanied by more comfort. For example, the language selected by the user is automatically set when logging in. Several methods are support for authentication. It starts with simple shared passwords, supports the usage of RFID transponders, and goes as far as the usage of Active Directory (LDAP) for a central management.
Timeline shows all important events at a glance
The new timeline feature gives an immediate overview on what happened at the machine. Showing constantly the performance and important events, it brings users instantly up to date. Was a parameter changed? Since when is the machine stopped? Look at the timeline. Need to align with a colleague of the next shift? Look at the timeline.
Recipe versioning lets you track when and by whom changes where made
Managing recipes (process parameters) is an important step to establish good control of the process. Undocumented changes to recipes will not be a hassle for you anymore. GEA SmartControl HMI provides automatic recipe versioning. Saving a recipe automatically creates a new version and by that makes changes traceable (when and who). Mistakes can easily be undone by restoring previous versions.
Line View gives access to other user interfaces (incl. 3rd-party)
A food processing line can be long and not all equipment is easily accessible. GEA SmartControl HMI allows integration of user interfaces from equipment in the line to facilitate the access. The open design allows not only to integrate GEA SmartControl equipment, also older GEA machines, or third-party equipment. Devices like printers or weighers can be accessed at ease by the operator, raising ergonomics and efficiency of the line.
Access to other GEA SmartControl HMI devices
If two or more HMIs are required for an efficient operation of the equipment, the new GEA SmartControl HMI supports multi-HMI scenarios. This allows for example to place HMIs in different hygienic areas with true concurrent operation.
