When EXOR first introduced to the market the eSMART series, nearly 2 years ago, it was always our intention to rethink the budget HMI sector.
With the progress of material engineering and design, we saw no reason why the budget HMI sector had to be offered with such poor levels of technology and particularly aesthetics. We saw a range of products that has been destined to remain the second choice.
Of course, the plastic housing would always present certain limitations to what we could achieve. There are things you simply cannot make plastic do no matter how much you try. The laws of physics apply to everyone!
This continued engineering investment has now been recognized by the most severe certification organisations in the world.
There is now no budget HMI series in the world that can offer the range of features and certificates, opening dramatically the range of possible applications and industry verticals.
