We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Man-machine Interfaces",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release HMIs are made for diesel-powered equipment from
CANtronik, which we summarised at the time by saying "Application-specific engine gauges and instrumentation for diesel powered equipment is available in just hours if required".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Barr and Paatz To Integrate Comau Robots from
Barr and Paatz: "Process automation and robotics specialist, Barr and Paatz of Totnes, has become an integration partner for the world renowned range of Comau industrial robots".
In September 2005, we covered the news from ESAB
concerning its MIG/MAG/FCW welding equipment
- take a look at Welding equipment comes to hand
which says: "A new brochure covers an extensive range of single- and three-phase MIG/MAG and pulsed multipurpose inverter power sources as well as equipment such as wire feed units and welding torches".
Take a look also at the news release from PML FlightLinK, Brushless 'pancake' motors at Drives and Controls,
as well as CANbus interface option for stepper drives from Parker Hannifin Electromechanical Automation,
and PLCs and sensors on railway maintenance equipment from Siemens Automation and Drives.
