HMI/SCADA

Prepare your HMI for the future, and increase the potential of your machines – with the unique possibilities offered by PROCON-WEB

Broadly scalable Web-HMI/SCADA solution

The innovative HMI PROCON-WEB is the ideal human-to-machine interface. It addresses the requirements of the user and utilises the capabilities of modern technology.

PROCON-WEB is particularly easy to use. A web browser is all you need to be able to analyse and control individual machines or a complete production flow.

Simple engineering via the designer tool without web and programming knowledge: configuring, instead of programming.

Direct communication to the entire automation environment

Communication via the integrated web server
Provides the user interface for PROCON-WEB Clients
Server components can be ported to any device
Manage data and communication to the entire automation environment

Choose from two variants

PROCON-WEB ES

for embedded systems as a platform-neutral solution

Low resource usage, due to the minimal requirement in the performance class of a Raspberry Pi
Open thanks to hardware-independence and standards such as OPC-UA
Runs ARM Cortex-A9 600 Mhz 100MB RAM, <50MB Image size
Available for Windows. Linux or via Container technology

PROCON-WEB SCADA

as a Windows application for complex tasks

Expanded range of functions for more efficient data processing
Connection to ERP and MES systems
Comprehensive application with multiple clients
Highly flexible and adaptable for use in different industries, ideal for control technology or complex digitisation tasks

PROCON-WEB Client

Machine operation, evaluation and maintenance

Modern and dynamic user interface for any HTML5 browser

Runs on mobile devices with the help of the HTML5 compatible browser with any operating system
No software installation necessary
Platform-independent because the interface is started directly by entering the server URL into the browser

OPTIONAL – the Cloud Connector for PROCON-WEB

Communication of pre-processed data to the cloud

A Cloud Connector is available as an option for both server variants that allows the HMI to be used for a higher level evaluation as an on-premise or cloud application.

HMI/SCADA in practice

GRENZEBACH

HMI for the control of AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) in intralogistics.

Customer requirements:

Retrofit project
Runs on the installed AGV Box PC
Integration into the Grenzebach fleet manager system
Integration into the Grenzebach fleet manager system

Project implementation:

Complete implementation by WM Software in close coordination with Grenzebach

OUR PROJECTS

Manual control of AGVs should be as simple and intuitive as possible for the operator. In close cooperation and thanks to the flexible project implementation by Weidmüller GTI, we succeeded in developing a web-based manual remote control optimally tailored to our requirements in a very short time.

White paper

From the switchboard to the cloud: Web-bases visualisation solutions

The machine switchboard was replaced by the touch pad many years ago. However, this does not tell us much about the operating concept behind the machine. Proprietary systems con?tinue to prevent consistent, company-wide networking. Web-based visualisations can support this kind of networking, as long as they are designed to be manufacturer-independent. They can easily be operated via the browser of any device – with intuitive gesture controls and individually configurable interfaces. Thanks to the client-server architecture, these systems can be expanded or adapted to new tasks as needed. The infrastructure can even be used for applications that go beyond the production process itself, such as for maintenance and quality assurance. With their openness and consistency, such software tools are a valuable aid in con?necting a system to the Industrial IoT.
