Fuji Electric's HMI Wins Engineering Award Again!
Online, March 9, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Last year FECOA won the award for best HMI in the hardware category and followed it up this year with our "V-SFT-V5" configuration software winning the 2011 Control Engineering Engineers' Choice Award in the Software - HMI Software category. Winning in both the hardware and software categories only proves that the Monitouch V8 series HMIs are a complete package.
"Innovative solutions such as Fuji Electric's HMIs and V-SFT software make manufacturing and other control engineering applications more efficient through smart applications of new technologies. Investments in the best products and software can help solve the most pressing challenges in automation, control, and instrumentation," according to Mark T. Hoske, Control Engineering content manager.
More than 100 product nominations from 65 companies were entered for consideration in this year's Engineers Choice Awards. Nearly 600 ballots were received and tallied. Control Engineering subscribers voted to identify the products they felt were the most exceptional based on technological advancement, service to the industry, and market impact. Engineers' Choice Award winners and honorable mentions were named for 30 categories. Awards will be presented as part of the 2011 Manufacturing/Automation Summit, a conference to be held March 20-22, 2011, in Chicago and were announced in the February 23rd publication.
"Continuous improvements among leading technology providers ensure that manufacturers, machine builders, and automation system integrators can achieve the levels of agility, efficiency, and effectiveness necessary to compete-and win-in today's global economy," Hoske said.
