Wonderware InTouch – Overview

Award-winning InTouch Human Machine Interface software is an open and extensible Supervisory HMI and SCADA solution that enables companies to quickly create standardized, reusable visualization applications and deploy them across an entire enterprise without having to leave the office.

Used in over one-third of the world’s industrial facilities, InTouch HMI software continues to deliver business value in these key areas:

  • Engineering simplicity
  • Operational agility
  • Real-time performance mastery to drive maximum performance
  • Increased agility
  • Lowered costs, reduced risk and increased security

Instead of developing a library of “graphics”, the features of Wonderware InTouch HMI enable application developers to focus on creating highly contextualized and interpretive visual content and assembling the most effective HMI applications and user interfaces for operational excellence and abnormal situation management.

Wonderware’s approach to presenting information means less time to orient to the problem, increased focus on awareness and information, more useful informational displays, advanced alarm aggregation to focus on the real problem and proper use of color to enhance operator performance and not distract or cause fatigue.

Wonderware InTouch HMI essentially adds years of experience to operators by enhancing the ability to see trends as they are forming, logically predict what may happen, take corrective actions to address problems before they get out of hand and avoid catastrophic events all in a less time and with greater accuracy and confidence than other HMIs. The success rate of exception handling can be improved by 37% and the total time required to complete tasks can be reduced by 41% using InTouch.

Improved Real-Time Visibility into Processes

Achieve improved operator awareness and productivity and reduce operational risks, response time and system downtime. Wonderware InTouch brings real-time visibility to a new level and transforms the way industrial user interfaces and Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are defined, moving from merely presenting data to the next evolution of displaying information in context. Instead of developing a library of “symbols”, the new features of InTouch enable application developers to focus on creating highly contextualized and interpretive visual content and assembling the most effective HMI applications and user interfaces for operational excellence and abnormal situation management. With InTouch 2014, the success rate of exception handling can be improved by 37% and the total time required to complete tasks can be reduced by 41%.

For over 25 years, Wonderware InTouch has been the world’s number one Human Machine Interface (HMI). InTouch offers legendary ease-of-use, market-leading innovation, unequalled investment protection, brilliant graphics, unsurpassed connectivity and the Industry’s best support and the broadest partner ecosystem.
