HMI+PLC Combo Units
Our HMC series combines a touchscreen HMI and PLC all in one unit. Utilized worldwide to employ diverse applications, our HMI+PLCs lower costs, save space, and feature options including: Serial and Ethernet communication, support for Class I Division 2 installations, and numerous I/O configurations. What's more, they provide an affordable combination of display and control in a single package and programmed by using our Free MAPware7000 software with graphs, alarms, trending, data logging, web server functionality and more.
Advanced models unlock additional functionality such as MQTT, VNC Server, email, advanced graphics, recipe database, and much more.
HMI+PLC Accessories
We offer custom communication cables to interface with over 300 protocols. Call us or see our Support Center for more details.
HMI+PLC Configuration Software
MAPware-7000 is the configuration software used to program all our HMI+PLCs. Use just one software application to program both the screens that appear in the display as well as the logic that controls your system. Create projects using the tools and graphic images included with the software to provide a functional user-interface for your control system. In addition, the built-in or expandable I/O can be used to control and monitor your system utilizing the logic instructions integrated in the software.
Our HMI+PLCs support IEC61131-3 program language. The graphics program and logic program work together to provide complete control through the graphic interface. Learn more about the MAPware-7000 programming environment.
MAPware-7000 Logic Editing Mode
MAPware-7000 minimizes software development time by making it easy to design & program all aspects of your project in one environment. Stop worrying about if your HMI and PLC are communicating to each other, MAPware-7000 was created to eliminate this frustration and provides one interface to interact with your whole control system.

Why Class 1 Division 2?
The first requirement for a Class I enclosure is strength. The enclosure must be strong enough to contain an explosion within. The walls must be wide enough to withstand the internal strain. It must be explosion-proof in case gas or vapors get inside. Secondly, it must function at a temperature below the ignition temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. The equipment must also provide a way for the burning gases to escape from the device as they expand during an internal explosion.
When the hazardous material is expected to be confined within closed containers or closed systems and will be present only through accidental rupture, breakage or unusual faulty operation, the situation could be called "abnormal". The Code writers have designated these two kinds of conditions very simply, as Division 1 - normal and Division 2 abnormal.
Our HMI + PLC are C1D2 certified and meet strict requirements.

OEM adds functionality with a Maple Systems HMI+PLC combo model
Jake Davis, Product Engineer for De Dietrich Process Systems, Inc contacted us for help with a redesign of the Powder Pump. The Powder Pump is a dense-phase pneumatic conveying system that eliminates the need to manually handle solids and minimizes other potential hazards by providing a closed system to transfer materials such as powders, prills, granules, flakes, etc. in a safe and contained manner. Read how Maple Systems product is used in this real-world application.

Serving Industries Around the World
Monitor temperatures, pressures and flow rates that can suddenly change.
Automated processes can work 24/7 with occasional outages for maintenance, which is clearly faster than human operators can perform. For this reason, increased efficiency and higher through-put rates are two of the biggest benefits of automation. In addition to elevated efficiency, automation also allows companies to collect valuable data from the production line that can be used to improve maintenance. Predictive maintenance is a new approach to maintenance where real-time data is used to identify potential issues and alert when maintenance is needed – further reducing costs as well as production downtimes.
