FIIF Event: Unlocking Industrial Interoperability with OPC
FIIF Event: Unlocking Industrial Interoperability with OPC, June 12th, 2025, 9-12, Tampere (Åkerlundinkatu 8 and online)
Interoperability and effective data exchange are becoming increasingly important in modern industrial automation. OPC (Open Platform Communications), developed by the OPC Foundation, is an interoperability standard for the secure and reliable exchange of data in industrial automation and other industries. It is platform-independent and enables seamless information flow between devices from multiple vendors. OPC UA (OPC Unified Architecture) is a collection of technologies that ensure the secure transfer of standardized information – from the sensor to the cloud.
This seminar provides insights into the current use of OPC technologies as well as their future development trends.
The event is organized in co-operation with Suomen Automaatioseura (The Finnish Society of Automation).
