The mechatronic eXtended Transport System (XTS) includes an application-specific HMI control for visualization of dynamic product transport. In addition to supporting collision-free motion with movers working independently or in groups and delivering dynamic, high-precision positioning on customer-specific track geometries, the software generates matching visualizations from an existing XTS track configuration with one mouse click. The generated HMI conrol is linked automatically with all necessary parameters from the user's application and can directly display the current positions of all movers within the system. The solution consists of three levels and combines with other HMI controls or animated images.
