Touch display is a device that integrates display and touch input functions, which inputs human commands into the control system of industrial apparatus through touch screen technology to realize the interaction between human and machine. As the interactive interface of industrial instruments, touch display can show the operating status, parameter settings, troubleshooting and other information of the equipment, and allow the operator to control and adjust the equipment through touch operation. The replacement of traditional physical buttons with touch displays as the interactive interface for injection molding machines offers significant benefits and places specific performance requirements. These benefits are analyzed in detail below:
1. Improved ease of operation:
Touch displays simplify the operating process with an intuitive graphical interface and touch operation, allowing operators to more quickly accomplish tasks such as setup, monitoring and adjustment.
The elimination of physical button presses and rotations reduces operational complexity and improves work efficiency.
2. Enhanced information display capability:
The touch display is able to display various parameters, status and running data of the injection molding machine in real time, such as temperature, pressure, speed, etc., enabling the operator to have a comprehensive understanding of the working condition of the equipment.
The data is presented visually in the form of charts, curves, etc., helping the operator to make quick decisions and adjustments.
3. Improve safety:
The touch display can avoid misoperation or malfunction due to mechanical wear and tear, poor contact and other problems of physical buttons, which reduces the security risk.
Measures such as setting permissions and passwords can ensure that only authorized personnel can operate and set up the injection molding machine.
4. Easy to maintain and upgrade:
The software part of the touch screen can usually be upgraded remotely, which is convenient for users to expand the functions and improve the performance according to the actual needs.
The hardware part of the touch screen is also easy to maintain and replace, reducing the maintenance cost of the equipment.
5. Enhance the aesthetics of the equipment:
The touch screen adopts modern design style and material, which makes the appearance of the injection molding machine more beautiful and generous.
The touch operation of the touch screen is also in line with modern usage habits, enhancing the overall technological sense of the equipment.
Touch displays are widely used in various industrial apparatus, such as injection molding machines, CNC machines, automated production lines and so on. In these applications, the touch display serves as an important interface for human-computer interaction, providing operators with intuitive, convenient and efficient operation. However, the industrial environment is often more demanding, the touch screen needs to have the following performance in order to be able to operate stably:
1. high reliability and stability:
The touch display needs to maintain long-term stable operation in the complex working environment of the injection molding machine, without being affected by external factors such as electromagnetic interference and temperature fluctuations.
It needs to have high anti-interference ability and stability to ensure accurate data transmission and display.
2. High durability:
The touch display needs to be able to withstand mechanical stresses such as vibration and impact during the working process of the injection molding machine, as well as the erosion of pollutants such as oil and dust.
Industrial-grade materials and structural design are required to ensure a long service life and low failure rate.
3. High-precision touch control:
The touch display needs to have high-precision touch control performance to ensure that the operator's instructions can be accurately conveyed to the injection molding machine control system.
Advanced touch control technology and algorithms need to be used to improve the accuracy and sensitivity of touch control.
4. Rich interface and expandability:
The touch display needs to support a variety of input signal interfaces (e.g., LVDS, HDMI, etc.) and communication interfaces (e.g., IIC, USB, etc.) in order to connect and exchange data with the injection molding machine control system and other devices.
It needs to have high expandability, so that it is convenient for users to expand and upgrade the functions according to the actual needs.
5. Good human-computer interaction experience:
The touch display needs to provide an intuitive, easy-to-use graphical interface and menu structure, which is convenient for operators to set up and monitor.
It needs to support multi-touch, gesture recognition and other intelligent interaction methods to improve the convenience and diversity of human-computer interaction.
In summary, touch displays replace traditional physical buttons as the interactive interface for injection molding machines bring significant benefits and impose specific requirements on performance. These requirements will ensure that the application of touch display in injection molding machine is more reliable, efficient and convenient.
