A Human Machine Interface (HMI) is the user interface that links operators with machines, enabling monitoring, control, and interaction through graphical displays and input devices. HMI converts human inputs into machine commands, supports remote operation, improves safety, and delivers real-time data for efficient and reliable industrial automation.
The use of HMI in industrial set-ups aids in having an uninterrupted automated production. It helps in resolving maintenance issues.
Some key benefits of HMI are:

Some key benefits of HMI are:
- Boosts rate of production
- Reduces work-related accidents and improves on-site
- Helps lower hardware costs
- Eases managerial tasks
Uses of HMI:
HMI enables operators to monitor, control, and interact with machines through visual displays, improving safety, efficiency, and automation.
Some key features of HMI are:
- Dashboard personalization: HMI Allows machinery operators to choose their necessary tools as per their preferences and design their own virtual workspace.
- Visualization of Workflow: HMI provides animated on-screen visualization of workflow in real-time.
- Multiple user security: HMI provides multiple ways of identification and authorization. This helps keep the data centres centralized and allows distinctive ways of getting to them.
- Automated alerts: It allows automated status change activities, such as alerts through emails, noises, error log entries, and on-screen messaging.
- Viewing limitations for data: Data that requires a higher level of user authorization for viewing will be automatically cleaned and won't be displayed on the screen, even if it is included in monitoring tools and displays with common access.
