Overview

mapp View is B&R's solution for HMI development, built on the modular mapp Technology software framework. Like Beckhoff's TwinCAT HMI, it is based entirely on web standards (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript), ensuring that any content can be viewed on any device with a web browser. It allows developers to create modern, intuitive, and smartphone-like user interfaces with features like multi-touch gestures. The development is done within B&R's Automation Studio engineering environment.

✨ Key Features

  • 100% based on web standards (HTML5, CSS, JS)
  • Modular design with pre-built widgets (mapp components)
  • Multi-touch and gesture support
  • Integrated with B&R Automation Studio
  • Role-based user management
  • Responsive design for different screen sizes

🎯 Key Differentiators

  • Modular 'mapp' components simplify development of complex functions
  • Completely web-standards based
  • Deep integration with the B&R hardware and software ecosystem

Unique Value: Dramatically simplifies and accelerates the creation of modern, web-based HMI applications through its modular 'mapp' components, which encapsulate complex functionality into simple, configurable blocks.

🎯 Use Cases (4)

Operator interfaces for machines and production lines Web-based remote diagnostics and maintenance Mobile HMI applications on tablets and smartphones Highly interactive and animated user interfaces

✅ Best For

  • Plastics and packaging machinery
  • Printing presses
  • Food and beverage production lines

💡 Check With Vendor

Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:

  • Projects not using the B&R automation platform
  • Traditional SCADA applications with large numbers of clients (better suited for machine-level HMI)
