Global Inkjet Systems (GIS) has introduced new features and capabilities to its Atlas User Interface (UI) and Machine Control software development kit (SDK).
Atlas provides OEM system builders with a modern UI that can be customised to incorporate branding, different colour schemes, languages and customer-specific functionality. Built on 
Microsoft industry standard .NET and WPF platforms, the Atlas UI now provides two different interface control options for its tools.
At InPrint 2015, Atlas was initially launched with a Window control option. GIS has now added a Kiosk control option, which provides a simpler UI where system builders can “lock down” access to specific tools making the UI suitable for applications where operator access must be tightly controlled.
A new Ink Cost Calculator has also been added to the standard tools offered by Atlas. This tool provides details on ink consumption by colour and drop size.
