At the SPS 2022 show in Nuremberg, the OPC Foundation demonstrated interoperability based on multi-vendor

UA FX using automation components from 20 manufacturers. These companies include ABB, Beckhoff, Bosch Rexroth,

B&R, Emerson, Festo, Honeywell, Hirschmann/Belden, Huawei, Barker, Kuka, Mitsubishi, Moxa, Omron, Phoenix

Contact, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Unified Automation, Wago and Yokogawa. The demonstration

demonstrates horizontal communication between third-party controllers, controller to controller (C2C) communication. With

UAFX extensions, controllers share process data using UAFX connections and PubSub

mechanisms over UDP/IP over wired Ethernet, Ethernet TSN, and 5G wireless connections.

3ASC25H204 DAPU100 said: “We are pleased with the progress our working group has made in the last few months. The

release of the first version of the UAFX specification and an impressive multi-vendor live demonstration were major achievements.

The specification is now mature so that real products can be implemented and conformance testing can be done.”

Since the launch of the Field-level Communications Initiative in November 2018, more than 320 experts from more

than 65 OPC Foundation member companies have contributed to expanding the technical concepts and specification

content of field-level communications within the OPC UA framework, including deterministic, motion, instrumentation, and functional safety.

The technical working group of the Field Level Communications Initiative is open to all members of the OPC Foundation.

3ASC25H204 DAPU100 New OPC Foundation. As the open source movement grew, so did the OPC Foundation. NET

user base. The group was initiated by three companies on the OPC Foundation’s board of directors :ABB, Microsoft and SAP. The

focus of this group is to maintain and extend the existing open source UA-. NET standard project, available in the

open source library. In addition to proprietary commercial solutions, all three companies

use open source software in their products. Each company contributes a full-time development resource to coordinate the

planned future direction, improve project quality, and implement new features. This ensures that important extensions to the standard, such as ECC security, are integrated in a timely manner.
