Entering the world of the web with ctrlX AUTOMATION

The ctrlX AUTOMATION automation platform transcends the boundaries between machine control, the IT world and the Internet of Things (IoT). It provides all the building blocks for complete automation solutions. It relies on open industry standards, web technologies and web-based engineering. This makes engineering 30 to 50 percent more efficient.

This is also ensured by various visualization solutions based on web technology. UID has a good overview here and supports customers in their search for the best solution.

UID is a system partner for ctrlX AUTOMATION. We support you in implementing HMI solutions with ctrlX AUTOMATION in an efficient and contemporary way. Depending on your requirements, we accompany the entire ideation, design and development process: we analyze the current situation, conceive and design the HMI and implement it as a turnkey solution.
Alternatively, depending on the project, we supply individual service modules such as the implementation of the HMI with visualization solutions or the migration of the existing legacy system to the ctrlX world.

Consumer interfaces are the benchmark for industrial HMIs. This is because users transfer their experiences with intuitive and attractive user interfaces from the consumer sector to the working world. We will design and develop a market-leading, state-of-the-art HMI for you for ctrlX AUTOMATION that will set new standards.

We put the user at the center of development right from the start. User-centered solutions support efficient and clear operation. This avoids unnecessary errors and reduces training times and support costs. This allows you to stand out from the competition with reliable and productive operation.

Our experts in UX design and software conceive, design and develop web HMIs that meet rising customer expectations in terms of functional reliability and aesthetics. Our HMI designs bring the quality of your brand to the surface and create a unique, brand-typical aesthetic.

When implementing HMIs, we use the possibilities offered by ctrlX AUTOMATION and various visualization solutions. Depending on your needs, we expand these with individual HMI controls, themes and widgets that are optimally tailored to your requirements.

Do you want to be more than just a hardware manufacturer? We identify digitalization potential that offers your customers real added value and support you in implementing it.
