As an expert in the design and integration of reliable HMI Systems for machinery, EAO translates both market and application requirements into intuitive and innovative interfaces used in food and beverage production, packaging and labeling equipment, and assembly and automation machinery among others.

EAO, an expert partner for Human Machine Interfaces, offers custom-built HMI Systems and a full range of components ideal for use in special purpose machinery.

As an expert in the design and integration of reliable HMI Systems for machinery, EAO translates both market and application requirements into intuitive and innovative interfaces used in food and beverage production, packaging and labeling equipment, and assembly and automation machinery among others.

EAO can design and manufacture all types of control panels or input devices — from primary on-off controls and simple membrane keypads, to handheld remote controls and highly complex rugged interfaces. HMI Systems can feature and benefit from the use of “mixed technologies” incorporating discrete switches, displays, touch screens, electronics and serial bus connectivity when needed.

All aspects of the HMI development process are supported; from design, concepts and prototyping, to full manufacturing and just-in-time delivery.  

EAO also offers a complete range of HMI Components ideal for machinery applications including:

  • 22mm illuminated emergency-stop with foolproof operation (Series 84);
  • 30mm IP65 illuminated pushbutton (Series 04);
  • 30mm IP67 illuminated pushbutton (Series 14).

Products are offered in a wide choice of actuators, materials, lenses and mounting styles. They are available worldwide and manufactured to international standards including UL, cUL, CE, RoHS, CB – EN/IEC 60947-5-1, NFF 16-102, CSA, CCC, GOST, and German Lloyd (see individual products).
