Using the latest web standards such as HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript, the new Lasal VisuDesigner engineering tool from Sigmatek is designed to enable the simple creation of hardware-independent, user-friendly visualization solutions. According to the manufacturer, optimum display on various HMI devices is also guaranteed. Project planning and configuration of the graphical user interfaces are carried out using design themes and a library of ready-made controls. Control elements can be grouped into functional units such as temperature zones in the graphical editor and reused as required. The logic behind the graphical elements can also be put together from puzzle-like building blocks without in-depth programming knowledge. As the optics and logic of the controls are separate, it is possible to create visualization projects in numerous display variants and transfer them to other applications. The HMI tool is designed as a modular system and also supports multi-touch interactions. Customized graphics and controls, animations, videos and audio files can also be integrated. For machine concepts with optional modules, the parameter sets of the actual machine modules can be loaded dynamically.
