BAUER Maschinen GmbH
The central element of user guidance in all Bauer machines, the cabin software, was to be redeveloped. Bauer approached basysKom GmbH with a request for development support and the contribution of expertise.
The cabin software allows for the parameterization of both the machine and the respective construction method. During operation, it visualizes the process sequence as well as a series of assistance systems and provides access to messages and information from the machine. The focus of the new development was on a state-of-the-art UX/UI that is adequate for the complexity of the machine, while simultaneously accommodating all types of drivers from beginners to experts.
Initially, our task was to develop solution concepts and implement an accompanying prototype. Building on this, the overall architecture of the application was designed, the implementation itself was carried out and ongoing coaching of the client and their R&D area was provided with the aim of knowledge transfer and a smooth transition to in-house development.
