 OPC UA – Core Value Proposition For the IIoT
278 companies took part in the survey, mainly from the machinery and
plant manufacturing industry. 205 of the companies that took part had
fewer than 500 employees. (Source: BITKOM, VDMA, ZVEI 2013)

Industry 4.0 Basic list 7 criteria – 2 of them are OPC UA

➞ Criteria 2: Industry 4.0 communication

Mandatory: Administration shell of the product can be addressed (at
any time) with the assistance of the identification online via
TCP/UDP&IP with at least the information model from OPC-UA

➞ Criteria 5: Industry 4.0 services and conditions
Optional: Information such as statuses, error messages,
warnings, etc. available via OPC UA information model in
accordance with an industry standard
(Source: www.zvei.org)
OPC UA serves as the common data connectivity and collaboration standard
for local and remote device access in IoT, M2M, and Industrie4.0 settings
 Definition 2003 – 2006
 Verification and Implementation 2006 – 2008
 Final OPC Foundation Release 2009
 IEC 62541 Release 2010 – 2012

IEC/IEEE 60802 TSN Industry

Combine Strength Automation Profile
Major automation vendors in the initiative add (a profile selecting feature from 2. Data Link Ethernet with TSN
their long time field level communications various IEEE802 and IEC standards)
know-how

Goal of IEC/IEEE 60802 IEEE 802.1 / IEC

- Converged TSN network: different protocols
Converged, real-time can share the same TSN network
capable Ethernet networks infrastructure IEEE 802.3 1. Physical e.g. 100 Mbit/s ; 1Gbit/s
- Use of common H/W components

The working groups will closely align with the TSN Profile for Industrial Automation (TSN-IA-Profile) which will be standardized by the IEC/IEEE 60802 standardization group. This will help
ensure that a single, converged TSN network approach is maintained so that OPC UA can share one common multi-vendor TSN network infrastructure together with other applications.
