Co-Service Manufacturing System Integrated OPC UA/FDT for Complex Equipments & Field Devices

Internet gives the manufacturing a new way to confront the challenges from the protean market. Applications including web techniques such as XML, Web Services, and the industrial techniques OPC UA & FDT/DTM, contribute to the reforming of the manufacturing. It leads to a new revolution and orients the manufacture to network manufacturing, cooperative manufacturing and even so-called the cloud manufacturing (the integration of the manufacturing and cloud computing) based on SOA in order to outrival other companies in the drastic competitions. This paper describes a new type of the co-service supporting based on SOA for Complex Equipments & Field Devices following a lead system which has been built in the frame of the project “Sino-German cooperation to advance the technique’s advantages: co-service supporting of the complex devices“.
