Brief

Pro-face, the global leader of Human Machine Interface (HMI) and factory data communication solutions, announced that the graphic operator interface GP4000 series will be launched on October 20, 2011. On top of the full 25-model lineup covering displays from 12.1" to 3.5", we are pleased to announce that GP-Pro EX Ver. 3.0, the screen editor and logic program software compatible with the GP4000 series, will also be released. We estimate that by 2013 we will have sold a combined total of approx.170 thousand hardware and software units, and our aim is to acquire a 30% share of the global touch panel display market.

All models in the GP4000 series feature a power-saving 65,536-color TFT display. We accomplished a maximum reduction in power consumption of 84% (compared to previous 12.1" and 10.4" models when using our lighting adjustment function). Previously only our high-end models had a 65,536-color TFT LCD—now the whole lineup of the GP4000 series adopts the 65,536-color TFT display as a standard feature. This offers higher visibility at production sites, and thus contributes to reducing human errors and oversights, as well as enabling more efficient operation and display.
