Surface Technology - Shot Blasting Machinery

OPC 40718 Surface Technology - Shot Blasting Machinery

Description

Defines an OPC UA Information Model for shot blasting machinery.
It will define the required data structures, parameters, methods, state machines etc. for the communication of shot blasting machinery into higher level manufacturing systems (e.g. Manufacturing Execution System, MES), for information, monitoring and diagnostic purposes and to set parameters regarding the shot blasting process.
Shot blasting is a technology used to clean, strengthen or set the roughness of metal or other material surfaces. Shot blasting is widely used in the producing industries. Shot blasting machinery is divided into wheelblasting and airblasting technology. The information model covers both shot blasting technologies and their specific machine components. By means of sensors, process data like shot blast material usage, power consumption, pressurized air consumption, etc. can be recorded and used for process monitoring.
