OPC UA based communication(emlix GmbH)

Vertical and horizontal communication between various components of different manufacturers of automation systems becomes a lot easier using OPC-UA. It defines an uniform interface to realize complex control systems and structures. Design paradigm is a service oriented architecture (SOA). OPC-UA becomes a platform and supplier independent standard for IoT systems based on established communication infrastructures. It provides integrated communication between sensor/actor and cloud. emlix evaluates appropriate OPC UA stacks and undertakes the task to implement OPC UA server and client. OPC-UA based systems designed by emlix are to be found in innovative solutions for connection of various control systems with SCADA systems as well as remote with ERP systems.

emlix provides software system solutions as well as tools and processes for industrial grade products based on embedded Linux. With regard to digitalization and network integration security concepts play an important role just as maintenance and updating throughout the product lifecycle. Bootloader, kernel and driver development are emlix' core competencies just like update concepts, realtime solutions and boot time optimization.

In application development we usually use C, C++, Java, html5 or Qt. Our M2M communication solutions are e.g. based on OPC-UA and MQTT. System solutions developed by emlix have been certified by FDA, PTB and BSI successfully.
