In HELIO, axes can be controlled very easily using standardized buttons, which enable intuitive operation of robots or digital twins via the HMI.
In a demo project by the company voraus.robotik, for example, clicking a simple button highlights the selected joint of a robot arm in the web view of the HMI. There, the corresponding button responds to a simple click.
However, in order to move this robot arm in a certain direction, another feature of the standard button is used: a button can perform different actions not only when clicked, but also when held down and when released again.
This structure allows precise control of movements without the need for complex programming. By combining standard components with differentiated actions, the user interface remains clear, modular, and scalable. Both individual movements and continuous axis controls can be flexibly mapped.
