Through this combination, ctrlX HMI provides the perfect user experience and offers flexible, needs-based applications. With its features and expansion options, the ctrlX HMI portfolio covers all application areas reliably – from the simplest process controls through to demanding and dynamic simulations. This makes it the simple solution to increasingly complex processes and growing demands as regards machine and system functionality.
Connectivity as well as systems and machine which adapt quickly are shaping industry. An increasing number of automation solutions therefore have a decentralized design and benefit from online support. ctrlX HMI is the basis for defining processes via software and ensures optimum usability with an attractive design and user experience.
Regardless of whether a tablet or integrated display is used, with the web-based software solutions from our partners the very highest degrees of freedom can be achieved and important information can be prepared and presented in a clear manner. The operating interfaces on all devices can be operated via an HTML5-capable web browser. ctrlX HMI thus allows platform-independent visualization.
The open ctrlX AUTOMATION architecture allows developers to integrate numerous web applications as well as widgets from third-party providers. The large ctrlX AUTOMATION Community offers assistance, provides ideas and creates synergies.
Like all ctrlX AUTOMATION product categories, the solutions in the ctrlX HMI portfolio have a number of common characteristics: openness, flexibility, simplicity. As a result, Bosch Rexroth is breaking down rigid structures.
The HMI solutions based on HTML5 web technology provide users with a choice of control and PC-supported architectures:
Bosch Rexroth’s scalable HMI hardware impresses with its reliability and ease of operation. Bosch Rexroth offers a suitable solution for every requirement:
