Thin Clients White Papers
Thin Client HMI Changes the Face and the Economics of Plant Floor Control Systems, Devices & Workstations
Overview
There’s a different form of industrial revolution taking place in the 21st century. It’s unusual because it’s taking industry forward by going backward; by applying new technologies in the fashion of another era. Today’s industrial revolution is applying advanced thin client computing on the plant floor in a manner reminiscent of the decades old, centralized approach of
mainframe computing.
The original industrial revolution took the world from manual labor to machine production in the 19th century. The 20th
century saw the evolution of manufacturing automation, moving from manual controls to relays to PLCs and to software-based human-machine interfaces (HMI) for automating and operating production lines and continuous processes.
