Manufacturing has vastly benefited from the technological advancements with communication and interaction from the latest touch screens, HMI, LED signs and displays making production more efficient.

However, it wasn't too long ago that large LED signs and displays were considered too costly to integrate into the manufacturing environment. This is no longer the case today with industrial grade LED message displays costing well under a thousand dollars. These signs can be fully integrated into existing networks including ethernet, Devicenet, Profibus, Modbus Plus etc.

One example of these Large displays working effectively in the field is with the use of bar code scanners. Please click on the image to access the PDF on this example.
