January 16, 2019 - Mitsubishi Electric Automation introduced handheld models for its GOT2000 Series, a human machine interface (HMI) that optimizes operator control and monitoring of device and line status. The GT25 Handy GOT, a portable interface offered in both 5.7-inch and 6.5- inch models, connects to industrial automation devices, including programmable logic controllers (PLC), variable frequency drives, servos and temperature controllers.
The handheld HMI displays information on a high resolution VGA touchscreen and allows operators to carry it with one hand. While its design allows operators to work wherever they can best observe physical machine changes, the GT25 Handy GOT provides functionality.
The GT25 Handy GOT can be used in any application that involves local setup, operation, monitoring and maintenance of system components from a graphical interface in which mobility is required. It can also be used as a teach pendant for robots. Multiple safety and security measures, such as an emergency stop switch and an enable switch keep the operator safe in case of emergency.
