OPC UA Info Day for the Valve Industry and Welding and Compressed Gas Technology

Event has been canceled
Free event

As an open interface standard, OPC UA is a key prerequisite for the successful introduction of Industry 4.0 in production: because OPC UA ensures the interoperability of machines, systems and components, which can be connected and redesigned as required via Plug & Work - platform-independent and manufacturer-independent.

The use of OPC UA also has great potential in the field of industrial valves and welding and compressed gas technology. The "OPC UA Info Day for the Valve Industry and Welding and Compressed Gas Technology" - exclusively for members on 27 September 2023 in Frankfurt am Main - will show you exactly what is behind the concept, how valve manufacturers can benefit from it and how the VDMA can support and accompany its members in the implementation. There will be an opportunity to network and exchange ideas over dinner.

On the following day (28.09.2023), interested parties can look forward to a practice-oriented event on success stories in application - best practices from Trumpf Werkzeugmaschinen, Mondelez, Deutsche Bahn Systemtechnik and many more will show what benefits are already being achieved in concrete implementation by VDMA members and partners.

More information about the Info Day will follow shortly.
