Wireless HMI from Sigmatek

Operating freedom, WLAN data exchange and integrated safety functions ... with the HGW 1033 wireless operating panel from Sigmatek, all these features are cleverly combined, says the company.

“And, thanks to OPC UA, the wireless operating panel is open for all systems. The HMI, which provides maximum operating freedom, can also be later integrated into existing machines and systems. With the battery pack, which has a run time capacity of two hours in full operating mode, the wireless HMI weighs only 1,350 grams,” it states.

Free movement without cables

To date, the range of motion for mobile machine operation has been limited by two factors, comments Sigmatek: the cable length and the safety required for people and machines in harsh industrial environments.

“With the wireless HGW 1033, the operator can now work close to the machine and keep the process in view and under control. Thanks to the wireless technology, long HMI cables have been eliminated as trip hazards. With the new ‘Wireless Roaming feature’, the operating range can also be increased as needed.”
