Plant engineers face a variety of challenges: improving quality; increasing efficiency; managing costs; reducing scrap; reducing downtime; and boosting capacity.
OPC technology can eliminate expensive custom interfaces and drivers normally required for interconnecting equipment and moving data throughout the organisation.
It also promotes interoperability among different computing solutions and platforms both horizontally and vertically in the enterprise.
"The DVT OPC server opens the world of plug-and-play interoperability to machine vision users", commented Steve Gieseking, DVT Director of Research and Development.
"It is easier to configure and is more robust than existing OPC software options".
The following standards are supported by the DVT OPC server: OPC DA 1.0; OPC DA 2.05A; OPC DA 3.0; OPC DA Auto 2.0; OPC XML-DA 1.0; OPC AE 1.10; and OPC Complex Data 1.0.
