This project focused on enhancing the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for the Platten MAC system, a core component of Forbes Marshall’s plywood automation efforts. The redesigned HMI improves workflow efficiency, offering intuitive navigation, accessible data visualization, and user-friendly controls. Tailored to the operator’s workflow, it simplifies interaction, monitoring, and control, ensuring seamless system oversight and optimizing operational performance. By integrating new features, the updated interface boosts engagement, reduces the learning curve for new operators, and enhances productivity for experienced users. These improvements ensure that operators can monitor and manage the system with ease, maintaining high production quality and efficiency. The enhancements align with Forbes Marshall’s vision of leading plywood automation, reflecting its commitment to innovation and operational excellence. Built on user-centered design principles, the improved HMI equips operators with essential tools for effective task execution. This project sets a new industry benchmark, reinforcing Forbes Marshall’s leadership in plywood manufacturing automation while ensuring sustained production quality and efficiency.
