🔧 From Semi-Automatic to Fully Automated – Feed Production System Upgrade Proud to share a recent project delivered by our team in an animal feed production facility (poultry, cattle, and goat nutrition lines). The objective was clear: Replace an unstable and faulty control system with a reliable, precise, and fully automated solution. The existing process was running in semi-automatic mode with recurring dosing inaccuracies from multiple silos and limited diagnostic visibility. This was directly impacting efficiency and maintenance response time. Our approach focused on: ▪ Rebuilding the entire control logic on a Siemens S7-1200 PLC ▪ Developing a structured and intuitive interface using a Weintek HMI ▪ Converting the system from semi-automatic to fully automatic operation ▪ Improving dosing precision to near-optimal accuracy ▪ Implementing clear alarm handling and diagnostic feedback for faster troubleshooting The result: ✔ Smoother production cycles ✔ Significantly improved dosing precision ✔ Better operator visibility ✔ Faster maintenance intervention ✔ A more reliable and scalable system Projects like this highlight how structured automation and well-designed control philosophy can transform performance Proud to be part of a team that focuses on reliability, precision, and continuous improvement.

I really like Weintek's products, cost benefit, high technology and secrets that I have unraveled that not even the tutorials explain that it is possible. CMT Line: Remote Access, Web Page, with native MQTT talking directly to AWS, AZURE, serves as supervisory. G01 this gateway is fantastic: it serves for any integrated modbus server PLC, native MQTT and OPC UA with 15 thousand tags without licensing, very easy integration with SCADA, talks with SQL server database, and My SQL, and the best thing is that it creates the tables without you having to configure anything, just the communication, it can simulate OFF LINE that EBPRO simulates as a physical hmi interface. FHDX 820: serves as mini SCADA without the use of an industrial PC, perhaps the only difference is that it does not have a Java script, but it has a macro that solves a lot, animations, alarms, events, recipes, it even triggers the PLC of different machines and without paying a license. EASYACCESS 2.0: remote access works miracles, it is possible to access the entire network and not just the HMI in question, firewall does not exist for it. WEINCLOUD.NET: Low-cost web SCADA creation per tag And the possibility of the entire CMT line becoming PLC codesys by activating license, very low cost.

Programming an HMI using weintek headless HMI. Loving this HMI software

Our production line wants to create an awareness dashboard with modern web technology. We want to extract data logs via Weintek, as our current system uses Siemens PLCs and HMI. The old vendor used Siemens environment tools like WinCC and TIA Portal to create a dashboard, but we can't afford to purchase a license. So we've decided to extend our topology using Weintek instead.

Weintek are really powerful and very cheap. Software is free and you can do online simulation before you have to purchase anything. I have written a HMI program and connected to a PLC with online simulation where my laptop acts like a HMI and then controlled all functions as normal. Then I purchased the HMI and installed. They offer screen less HMIs as well, I recommend you take a look at their products. Well worth the money and they have hundreds of drivers.

Two identical control panels ready for shipping to a customer I like the weintek hot spot facility on the faceless HMI it's a good way for putting a screen in awkward places also accessing plc anywhere around the machine.

I am impressed with the headless HMI with HDMI output. Two hours out of box and connected to 7 PLCs! I mean it’s been awhile since I used Maple Systems. I liked their stuff in my previous life but the headless HMI with HDMI is something to talk about. You can connect up to 64 PLCs to a single unit with an impressive list of over 300+ drivers as usual. I like to give kudos to people and companies who make Controls Engineer’s lives easy. Unboxing to 2 hours talking to 7 PLCs and displaying data on a TV? Impressively easy! Downside? Rumor mill from other plants and customers I have talked to about this setup is a TV is designed to be installed in our living room so the industrial environment gives a TV about a 1 year life span is the feedback I received from others…not really designed to be hung in a hot warehouse showing off your OEE scores…but the TV cost $300 and the cMT-FHDX-820 is $765…. Not bad. Did I mention that from power “ON” to updating tags is a mind blowing 9 seconds?

🚀 Smart Monitoring Center: Connecting Generation in Real Time Key advance in the project: Intelligent Monitoring Center, designed to integrate and supervise in real time the Cumbayá, Nayón, Pasochoa, Guangopolo, Gualberto Hernández Thermal Power Plant (broker) and soon the Hidrovictoria Power Plant. The system is based on advanced Weintek model cMT-FHDX-820 HMI devices, programmed with macros in C language for the calculation and processing of production and consumption data. In addition, the graphical interface was developed in Easy Builder Pro and the information was taken from a Quantum Shcneider PLC in each plant. Each central is connected through a WAN network, sending its critical variables to a central node, and all the information is stored and visualized on the WeinCloud web platform, through executive dashboards. 🔹 Key Benefits: ✅ Real-time monitoring of critical electrical and mechanical parameters. ✅ Centralized and remote management of operational information. ✅ Greater resilience and continuity of the electricity system. ✅ Optimized daily and monthly reports in the cloud. ✅ Preparation for a scalable, digital and sustainable model. The integration of state-of-the-art hardware, specialized programming, and cloud platforms paves the way for more efficient, secure, and reliable energy management. 🌍⚡

Always wanted to test the HMI’s. I used the headless HMI’s(FHDX) and the servers(SVR) a lot in the past. Very powerful and competitively priced!

I think the headless HMI where you provide your own screen is a very cool idea, and so far as I know, Weintek pioneered it. Kudos.

Weintek stuff , i don't use It as a HMI i always use the cmt line as a Bridge betwenr diferent PLC and comunication protocols , it's a no brainer easy to use and cheap

Honestly they are all pretty good, under 10inch and standalone machine i go with the IE/iP series, simply because of the price, nothing comes close. Anything bigger or part of the PLC network I go with CMT X series, you can set them up to access all the CMT HMIs from any other CMT HMI, obviously all password protected but I have a headless CMT HMI in my office connected to a big monitor showing me every HMI on the plant, it's no replacement for a good scada system but it still allows me to make adjustments and monitor data at a glance without loading up or running extra applications on my laptop. But any of them will work, and that's the biggest benefit to me, 1 version of 1 application will do them all

I use a lot of Weintek HMIs. They can like the automation direct C communicate with almost anything. They are relatively inexpensive and come with a lot of features. There are some quality of life stuff lacking in setting them up but generally they are quite excellent. For a facless one they start at 120 GBP and a 15" one will run you about 1,000-1,100. They communicate with just about anything so I have been using them to communicate with GE products, modbus (TCP & RTS RS485), Allen Bradley & ASCII over TCP. The HMI programming software is free so you can download it and set up an HMI, run a simulation on your PC and see if you like it. They have a lot of YouTube videos on how to set everything up. Allen Bradley products generally communicate using Ethernet/IP protocols and not Modbus. We also use a lot of FactoryTalk products but generally you get about 1/4 as much and have limited functionality. If all you want to do is communicate with AB than it's a good option. Programming them between multiple is a pain as the files are stored on your computer and challenging to transfer so you need to create a backup and transfer it that way..

Used 100's of Weinteks. Really like them a lot. Only a couple of times with Rockell, but that went fine. Import all tags directly to Weintek from Rockwell file is big time saver. A few points about weintek- all units I have put out there since 2005 have had a forward migration path. Sometimes requires a little manual intervention, but always allows a way to use newer products. They have a headless unit for use with external hdmi touchscreens (Hope Industrial or Elo). I use that with systems going into harsh environments. Easier to replace a dumb screen than the entire HMI

I have two of their headless units in my lab for a customer, and I agree that they're super good for the free software and long list of drivers! Their documentation could be better around the fine details of some of their objects though

Couldn’t agree more! We used the headless version to display runtime data on 32” HD Monitors. Ops asked for 2 more… this system was easily expandable by using mini pc’s with VESA mounting to the monitor. Installed the cMT viewer application on the remote PC’s. Launched the apps and pointed it to the Headless HMI’s cMT server. Easy low cost solution. No proprietary licensing needed.

I have used Weintek for at least 10 years now. Hundreds of HMI deployments over many industries and in some harsh conditions. Recently I’ve been doing some building automation stuff using the more advanced versions of the HMIs with Codesys. and the iR IO modules. Also, lately I’ve been working at things like remote connections with the headless SVRX HMIs and EasyAccess2.0. I really enjoy using the Weintek equipment and hope to have many more opportunities with it.
