Achieving a higher degree of automation in construction machinery is not a question of “if” but simply of “when”.

Memory functions, self-moving features, and safe positioning is quickly becoming the standard. Those functions not only increase the value of cars, but also of construction machines. By reducing the wiring effort and with a modern decentralized system structure this technology no longer determines a cost disadvantage. In fact, sometimes the opposite is the case. Development and qualifying costs can be conserved when using proven components. A modular HMI concept will still allow for customization of the front foils. The wide range of housings and different combinations will give manufactures and their machines their own identities.The separation of HMIs, Sensors, Controllers, and application software gives us the ability to generate simple and frugal systems as well as complex structures in a very short amount of time. A huge range of software functions are already available and can be used and integrated in new software whenever necessary. Hardware and software is designed to achieve PL d applications when needed. The CAN interface reduces wiring and makes it easy to expand. Together these individual links create a chain known as the MOBA platform.

Like in a chain where the weakest link is determines the strength of the whole, manufactures have to avoid weak components when they decide to use new technology. For 40 years MOBA has had massive success with the systems and components supplied to manufacturers in the construction machinery market. Contact free technologies and potting solutions in addition to very high quality.

The MOBA product platform: Premium Products for Premium Machines.

The modular concept gives the manufacturer the highest possible amount of flexibility.

Advantages:

• Cost saving potential (development, wiring, etc.)
• Additional machine features (optional features by software)
• Fast development (time to market)
• Customization with reliable and proven products
• Easy to expand
• Modern CAN-Bus interface
• First Modular HMI concept word-wide
• Cat.3 structure for PL_d applications
• Logistically efficient (use the same components on different machines)
• Wide range of HMIs, controllers and sensors
