Nowadays most machiens used in manufacturing have special control systems. The control systems can be uncomplicated, based on simple programmable logical control or more complicated, based on advanced multilevel hierarchical control models. Beter work organisation should ensure high motivation, increased competency, stability of personnel and human work efficiency. The competitiveness and effective utilisation of machines and manufacturing systems that are becomming more and more computerised can be achieved by putting more emphasis on the human factor. In connection with the above-mentioned approach, namely a human-centered approach to the modern manufacturing may be more effective based on actual productivity gains, economics, technical feasibility and equipment capability and reliability, and problems created by automated manufacturing technologies. This paper examines technological issues of human-computer interface pertaining to human factors performance particularly in psychologycal aspect in advanced manufacturing systems.
