Softing Demonstrates First OPC UA Publisher/Subscriber Real-Time Stack
Haar, November 24, 2015 – As a leading OPC technology provider, Softing Industrial Automation is the first manufacturer to implement the brand-new Publisher/Subscriber extension of the OPC UA standard. This functionality allows using a standard Ethernet network for deterministic data exchange based on the emerging IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standard.
(firmenpresse) - For demonstration purposes the OPC UA Publisher/Subscriber real-time stack has been deployed to two Softing Industrial Ethernet gateways. The application communicates via TSN-enabled switches and a standard Ethernet network in a deterministic way, also if additional network load is added to the Ethernet infrastructure. The OPC UA Publisher/Subscriber functionality is based on a connectionless UDP secure multicast communication.
“The Softing OPC UA Publisher/Subscriber stack architecture is an ideal fit to the FPGA design, which is used for our OPC UA embedded solutions and builds the standard platform for our Industrial Ethernet implementations,“ explains the Softing OPC product manager Cristian Pogacean. “It follows the same design patterns of our successful Industrial Ethernet communication stacks like PROFINET, EtherNet/IP or EtherCAT and has proven to provide complete deterministic capabilities in combination with the TSN standard.”
In detail, the OPC UA Publisher/Subscriber application demonstrates a guarantee of service for controller-to-controller communication and the deterministic communication via an existing Ethernet-based infrastructure. At the same time control processes, streaming and data traffic run over one standard Ethernet network without affecting real-time data delivery or wasting bandwidth. Requirements of “Industrie 4.0”/Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) are better covered in this way. The Softing gateway architecture proves to be ideally suited as a platform for OPC UA implementations and Softing OPC UA customers can benefit from new functionality at a very early stage.
