Touchscreen HMIs offer low-price option for local machine control

September 15, 2017 By Lisa Eitel Leave a Comment

When it comes to standalone machines needing only local machine control, price is a key design consideration — and such machines demand quality HMIs at a great value. To serve such applications, Maple Systems now sells Basic HMIs for local machine control at a low cost. The Basic HMI series is suitable for companies and OEMs needing function and value, yet without enhanced features of Advanced and Smart HMI products. Maple’s Basic HMIs now come with both single-unit and bulk pricing. For bulk and quantity discounts, email sales@maplesystems.com — or learn more about Basic HMI series at maplesystems.com/products/basic-hmi.

With performance and an attractive price, Maple’s Basic HMIs provide a cost-effective way to add a touchscreen interface to any machine. There are three available sizes (4.3 in., 7 in., and 10 in.) and Ethernet and non-Ethernet models, and the HMIs are equipped with Cortex A8 600MHz CPU, 128MB Flash, and 128MB RAM. The Basic HMIs also support more than 250 major manufacturers of PLC and controllers, and make use of Maple Systems EZwarePlus software. Here are PDFs detailing specific models:

HMI5040BN: 4.3-in. Non-Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Client, 1 Serial Port

HMI5040B: 4.3-in. Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Host, 1 Serial Port

HMI5070BN: 7-in. Non-Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Host, 1 USB Client, 1 Serial Port

HMI5070B: 7-in. Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Host, 1 Serial Port

HMI5100BN: 10.1-in. Non-Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Host, 1 USB Client, 2 Serial Ports

HMI5100B: 10.1-in. Ethernet, Non-UL, 1 USB Host, 2 Serial Ports
