Right at the heart of your plant is the control station. Here, everything comes together to ensure perfect running. It's where your operators monitor and guide the whole process.
Their link to the plant is our HMI system. It maps the production process and provides all the necessary information. Included here is a visualization interface developed by SMS group that draws on the human ability to perceive and process information.
