Dynamic indicator lights are an effective way to communicate machine statuses clearly and quickly
Indicator lights have long been the visual language of machines. However, traditional indicators are limited—typically offering 3-5 colors to represent a wide range of statuses. Banner Engineering's programmable RGB indicators let you choose from a wider variety of colors and change them as needed. Many RGB indicators also come with pre-defined animations and advanced functions to expand indication possibilities and represent active machine statuses.
Dynamic statuses are machine or process conditions that are often challenging to convey with a traditional solid color or flashing light. Examples include machine warmup state, transitional states, take time remaining, fill level, and more.
Advanced indication requires a broader spectrum of color options. More colors allow each status or assembly step to have a unique indication from other steps, eliminating confusion and speeding up interpretation of the signals.
Additional colors and animations also communicate advanced states visually and intuitively for operators and supervisors alike. They add nuance to the visual language of your machines, conveying more status information at a glance compared to traditional indicators.
