In the past, operator input to a machine was only rarely possible without permanently wired operator controls. Whether you were dealing with emergency stop, pushbuttons, switches, indicator lights, or key-operated switches: All these controls had to be planned, ordered, installed, wired, labeled and maintained. Their time-consuming and often error-prone individual installation constituted a significant cost item in control cabinet construction. Siemens proves that it can be done more efficiently and cost effectively – with SIMATIC HMI Key Panels.

Cutting out the openings, installing the keys, laying and attaching the cables, and engraving and fitting the labels. All these work steps meant that the installation and wiring of individual long-stroke keys and switches used to be extremely time consuming – and the process was also highly error-prone. All that is now in the past thanks to the SIMATIC HMI Key Panels. Time savings of up to 80% are now possible.
Significantly simpler …
With the SIMATIC HMI Key Panels, many basic functions can be combined to optimize costs, and the configuring and installation overhead can be reduced to a minimum. Compared to conventional installation, the use of a pre-assembled, ready-to-install key panel reduces the wiring overhead to a minimum
