An alliance for the IIoT
Companies are working on an open ecosystem for the digital transformation of industrial plants
(PresseBox) - At the Hannover Messe 2019 trade fair, seven leading suppliers from mechanical engineering, industrial automation and software announced the foundation of the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance. With this cooperation, the companies want to overcome proprietary solutions and give a decisive boost to the digital transformation of the European industry.
Founding members of the alliance are Beckhoff, Endress+Hauser, Hilscher, ifm, KUKA, Multivac and SAP. In principle, the alliance is open to all companies. Balluff, Gebhardt, Pepperl+Fuchs, Schmidtsche Schack, Samson and WIKA have already joined the alliance as members. All companies are mutually committed to the creation of a standardized and open ecosystem for the operation of highly automated factories and process plants with the integration of logistics and services.
?The open architecture of the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance meets all the requirements of the process industry,? emphasized Matthias Altendorf, CEO of the Endress+Hauser Group. ?It is based on standards, ensures transparency across all business processes and guarantees the integrity of the systems. This enables process plant operators to leverage the potential of digitalization.?
Focus on implementability and benefits
The alliance members are planning to realize a so-called Open Industry 4.0 Framework based on existing standards such as I/O Link, OPC UA and RAMI for the entire route from objects in the workshop to services. Customers can choose from a modular system of compatible and scalable solution and service components, such as digital services from Endress+Hauser?s Netilion IIoT ecosystem.
The connection to the SAP software portfolio ensures the integration of a company?s business processes as well as collaboration with partners across company boundaries. The open architecture allows the simple connection of further system landscapes.
More information about the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance will soon be published at www.openindustry4.com
