OPC UA Support "EUROMAP Gateway"

System Overview

EUROMAP Gateway can connect to existing injection molding machines that do not support OPC UA or EUROMAP, interpreting the manufacturer's proprietary communication protocols and data formats that differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, reducing the development time required for data integration with the host system (MES*1). By using the EUROMAP Gateway to send equipment data to the MES in a unified format, it is possible to visualize equipment status and improve processes through data analysis, thereby accelerating the shift to DX at the manufacturing site.

  • *1
    An abbreviation for Manufacturing Execution System, a system that monitors and manages factory equipment and workers.

Features

  • Acquire injection molding data from MES

    EUROMAP Gateway constantly collects data on actual values ​​and equipment status, allowing real-time data to be seamlessly sent to the MES.

  • Possible to set instructions for injection molding machines

    It is possible to control production instructions from the MES, such as changing recipes or operating modes.
    *Functionality may be limited depending on the injection molding machine connected.

  • Reports actual values ​​and abnormal values ​​of injection molding machines to MES

    The EUROMAP Gateway monitors the status of the injection molding machine, including the number of good and defective products and the temperature.
    *Functionality may be limited depending on the injection molding machine connected.
