OPCUA embedded is a set of OPC UA servers specifically designed to work with popular CNC and PLC models. These servers are developed in ANSI C and optimized for binary size and runtime resource requirements. This makes it possible to install and run the OPC UA server directly on the device being serviced, when needed.
The OPC UA server code is fully cross-platform, meaning it can be used on a variety of different operating systems. For some OPC UA servers, there is even a version available for Linux, as well as for older versions of the Windows operating system such as XP/2000/NT4. This is especially important since many CNC machines with HMI operator panels still use these older operating systems.
