Re: OPC-UA Server for FANUC Controls
I am aware that there are these two camps, MTConnect and OPC UA sympathizers. Therefore we at CyberTech Engineering rather focus on the customer's needs. For some businesses, you are better served with OPC-UA, on others you go for MTConnect...
I found this article helpful, which is a talk about these two protocols:
Control Engineering
In terms of HumanOS SmartGateway, we provide both, MTConnect Agent and OPC-UA Server plugins. This means, you can connect to your machine with the protocol you prefer.
From the developer's point of view, I totally agree. I like the strategy of MTConnect to be a free and open protocol :-)
