Moxa announces support for the Open Platform Communications Foundation's United Architecture Field Level Communications initiative
Moxa宣布支持OPC UA現(xiàn)場層通訊項目
Moxa is joining forces with other major industrial communications and networking suppliers in supporting the Open Platform Communications Foundation's United Architecture Field Level Communications (OPC UA FLC) initiative, specifically as a member of the FLC Steering Committee where it will lend its expertise to the development of a unified infrastructure for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) technologies.
Moxa正在與其他主要工業(yè)通信和網(wǎng)絡供應商合作,支持開放平臺通信基金會的聯(lián)合架構(gòu)現(xiàn)場層通信(OPC UA FLC)計劃,特別是作為FLC指導委員會的成員,將為時間敏感網(wǎng)絡(TSN)技術統(tǒng)一基礎架構(gòu)的開發(fā)提供專業(yè)知識。
With the OPC UA FLC initiative, the OPC Foundation aims to build an open, standards-based communication solution for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) by extending the OPC UA machine-to-machine communication protocol from sensors in the field to IT systems or the cloud. Adopting one unified network infrastructure will provide vendors with independent end-to-end interoperability of their field level devices, such as sensors, actuators, controllers and cloud addresses, and enabling bilateral IIoT data communications between the factory floor and the cloud. With TSN as its foundation, the OPC UA FLC initiative meets emerging IIoT requirements for deterministic networking and real time communications over high-bandwidth, low-latency networks.
OPC基金會希望通過通過OPC UA FLC計劃,將OPC UA機器到機器通信協(xié)議從現(xiàn)場傳感器擴展到IT系統(tǒng)或云端,從而為工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IIoT)構(gòu)建開放的、基于標準的通信解決方案。采用統(tǒng)一的網(wǎng)絡基礎設施將為供應商提供其現(xiàn)場層設備的獨立端到端互操作性,例如傳感器、執(zhí)行器、控制器和云地址,以及在工廠車間和云之間實現(xiàn)雙邊IIoT數(shù)據(jù)通信。以TSN為基礎,OPC UA FLC計劃通過高帶寬、低延遲網(wǎng)絡滿足蓬勃發(fā)展的IIoT對確定性網(wǎng)絡和實時通信的要求。
Companies on the FLC Steering Committee include ABB, Beckhoff, Bosch Rexroth, B&R Industrial Automation, Cisco, Hilscher, Hirschmann, Huawei, Intel, Kalycito, KUKA, Mitsubishi Electric, Molex, Omron, Phoenix Contact, Pilz, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Siemens, TTTech, Wago, and Yokogawa. The FLC initiative has also gained support from the TSN testbeds of the Edge Computing Consortium (ECC), the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC), and Labs Network Industry 4.0 (LNI 4.0) with regard to the FLC activities to adopt "One TSN".
FLC指導委員會成員包括ABB、倍福、博世力士樂、貝加萊工業(yè)自動化、思科、赫優(yōu)訊、赫斯曼、華為、英特爾、Kalycito、KUKA、三菱電機、Molex、歐姆龍、菲尼克斯電氣、皮爾磁、羅克韋爾自動化、施耐德電氣、西門子、TTTech、萬可,以及橫河電機。對于FLC計劃的“統(tǒng)一TSN網(wǎng)絡”,OPC UA FLC項目同時也獲得了邊緣計算產(chǎn)業(yè)聯(lián)盟 (ECC)、工業(yè)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)聯(lián)盟 (IIC) 和工業(yè)4.0實驗室網(wǎng)絡(LNI4.0)TSN測試床的支持。
Moxa has participated in all these testbeds to showcase the interoperability of its TSN switches with the devices of other vendors in one standard Ethernet-based network infrastructure. This interoperability will be instrumental in the future of industrial automation by opening up new possibilities brought on by the IIoT and Industry 4.0.
Moxa參與了上述所有測試床項目,測試Moxa TSN交換機與其他供應商設備在同一標準以太網(wǎng)網(wǎng)絡基礎設施中的互操作性。這種互操作性對構(gòu)建工業(yè)自動化的未來、挖掘 IIoT 和工業(yè) 4.0潛能而言至關重要。
