Description

It is possible to gather production data from machines using OPC UA. Further protocols will follow in the future. Secure Service Hub provides the Application OPC UA Adapter for this purpose. The data gathered from the machine is stored in the Secure Service Hub databases and only accessible for the own tenant. For this purpose, we have developed our public API. Data sharing (e.g with your Service Provider / Machine Manufacturer) is foreseen but not implemented yet.
