Industry 4.0 readiness gives you easy access to your line to read out production data. The evaluation of the data outside the Machine is not included in the scope of supply and is thus a matter for the customer IT department. For information about bidirectional data communication (reading/writing), please get in touch with your Soudronic contact. As its Industry 4.0 communication channel, the platform uses the independent OPC-UA protocol, which is the most commonly used solution in the industry. This protocol is supported by all the main ERP providers/integrators.
