OPC UA has become a cornerstone of interoperability in modern industrial automation. This talk delves into the transformative role of OPC UA in enabling seamless communication and data exchange across diverse systems and devices. We will explore the core principles of OPC UA, its advantages over traditional communication protocols, and its impact on achieving true vendor-agnostic connectivity.
We will be discussing the emerging OPC UA Field eXchange (FX) extension, designed to enhance real-time communication and deterministic behavior at the field level. We will discuss how OPC UA FX addresses the challenges of time-sensitive applications and enables advanced control strategies.
To illustrate the practical application of OPC UA, we will showcase Danfoss FlexMotion drives as a compelling example. Danfoss FlexMotion drives are a cutting-edge solution for precise and synchronized motion control, offering advanced features such as integrated safety functions, decentralized intelligence, and high-performance servo control. These drives are particularly well-suited for applications requiring coordinated multi-axis movements, such as robotics, packaging, and material handling.
Best in combination with the workshop “Motion Control with OPC UA”.
