OPC UA plays an important role in the implementation of Industrie 4.0, which calls for uniform standards for the cross-manufacturer and cross-hierarchy networking of sensors, components, machines and controllers from different manufacturers. In order to standardize this machine-to-machine communication, the VDMA, through its members, sees the uniform communication standard OPC UA as the preferred standard. The technical properties of the products to be standardized in OPC UA are concrete device and capability information. These are described by object-oriented information models in technical specifications, the OPC UA Companion Specifications.

The event series "OPC UA - Tackling and Implementing" will present the new innovation magazine on the topic of "OPC UA / umati", which will be published in April to coincide with the digital Hannover Messe (12 to 16 April 2021). The magazine contains ten implementation examples from companies in the mechanical and plant engineering sector in North Rhine-Westphalia, as well as technical articles on OPC UA and umati by Andreas Faath, OPC UA Project Manager, VDMA Forum Industrie 4.0.

During this event, participants will receive an introduction to OPC UA as well as an overview of the activities and role of the VDMA on the topic of OPC UA. The growing number of projects makes it necessary to coordinate the work across the board so that the individual models developed are compatible with each other. Subsequently, two implementation examples of the companies Klingelnberg GmbH and ELHA-Maschinenbau Liemke KG from the innovation magazine will be presented.

The event is aimed at specialists and managers from the field of digitization.
