Abstract

Volatile markets and long development times of process plants are increasingly fuelling demands for more flexibility in process industry. A solution approach is the consequent modularization of process plants. To integrate modules efficiently required information needs to be represented in a Module Type Package (MTP). In this article a method is described and analysed to automatically transform the MTP based on AutomationML to an OPC UA information model. This makes the semantic description of the module which is derived from the MTP accessible online. An advantage of this approach is the decoupling of MTP definition and implementation. Thereby an investment in necessary software components by the module manufacturer becomes possible already before the definition process of the MTP is completed. On the other hand a big foot print and limitations of the model are downsides.
