Autoblocks HMI

Product Description

The Autoblocks HMI replaces the panel PC, SCADA package, and separate motion terminal with one secure touchscreen — a single window into everything the Control Block runs. No middleware. No external configuration. Plug it in and it boots straight into the Autoblocks environment.

Motion — Jog, home, and monitor every coordinated axis live from the touchscreen. Real-time position and status for the full Control Block motion stack.

Logic — Read/write AutoCode editor access right at the machine. A multi-tab interface drives up to eight devices or subroutines from a single screen.

Safety — Live safety state, E-stop, and door status surfaced through the Control Block safety controller. Operator / Technician / Administrator login levels gate every action.

HMI — 13.3″ Full-HD, 10-point capacitive touch — glove and stylus ready. IP65 front panel, ARM Cortex-A76 compute, Autoblocks OS.

Connectivity — Gigabit Ethernet, dual USB 2.0, and an M12 8-pin key/start/stop/reset port. Web HMI delivers the same interface in any browser; Autoblocks Studio adds remote programming and support.

AUTOBLOCKS HMI

Motion. Logic. Safety. HMI. — One Platform.

The Operator’s Window Into the Machine.

The Autoblocks HMI is a single, secure portal into everything the Control Block runs — motion, logic, and safety — with no PC, no SCADA layer, and no external configuration. One 13.3″ touchscreen, connected to the Control Block over a single link, boots straight into the Autoblocks environment: multi-tab control of up to eight devices, native AutoCode editing, and remote programming and support through Autoblocks Studio.

Traditional operator stations bolt a separate PC, SCADA package, and motion terminal onto the machine — each with its own configuration, network, and support burden. The Autoblocks HMI replaces that with one screen. It powers and wires directly to the Control Block rear power and safety bus, runs alongside the Autoblocks Pendant or in place of it, and is plug-and-play out of the box.

Built for the factory floor: 13.3″ Full-HD, 10-point capacitive touch — glove and stylus ready — behind an IP65 front panel, driven by an ARM Cortex-A76 compute module running Autoblocks OS.

Four Systems. One Screen.

MOTION — Motion at your fingertips. Jog, home, and monitor every coordinated axis live from the touchscreen. Real-time position and status for the full Control Block motion stack — no separate motion terminal.

LOGIC — AutoCode, on the glass. Read/write AutoCode editor access right at the machine. A multi-tab interface drives up to eight devices or subroutines from a single screen, online or offline.

SAFETY — Safety in full view. Live safety state, E-stop, and door status surfaced through the Control Block safety controller, wired to the Control Block rear safety I/O. Operator / Technician / Administrator login levels gate every action.

HMI — Built for the floor. 13.3″ Full-HD, 10-point capacitive touch — glove and stylus ready. IP65 front panel, ARM A76 compute, Autoblocks OS. One screen for the whole machine.

Built for the Floor.

For integrators and machine builders, the Autoblocks HMI collapses the operator station into a single, preconfigured unit. It ships ready to run — VESA-mounted, wired to the Control Block over one link, and booting directly into the Autoblocks environment your team already knows. No imaging, no SCADA licensing, no panel PC to maintain.

Native AutoCode editing on the glass, multi-tab control of up to eight devices, browser-based Web HMI, and remote support through Autoblocks Studio mean faster commissioning, simpler service calls, and one consistent interface across every machine you build.
