For the third time IPCOMM was part of the
IPCOMM attended this year's OPC Interoperability Workshop, which took place from 22nd to 26th October in Nuremberg, Germany. The annual event is addressed to manufacturers of OPC UA products to test hardware and software components for interoperability, conformity and reliability.
As part of the workshop, the protocol stacks OPC UA 1.02, Client and OPC UA 1.02, Server were successfully tested with devices from other manufacturers.
Benefit from our new
We are proud to announce the release of the OPC UA Client protocol stack from the OPC UA protocol family. OPC UA was specified by the OPC Foundation, and is considered a trailblazer for industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT).
For the second time IPCOMM was part of the
We would like to thank you for the very positive feedback of this year's customer survey. 91 percent of the survey participants assessed IPCOMM products better than competing products, 36 percent even much better; our service was also assessed better than competitors (90 percent), 55 percent even much better. 83 percent of the participants would recommend us without reservations. Of course, we also received only a few critical comments on which we are intensively working.
We will be glad to give you the information about our product portfolio and our range of services in a free webinar, live and online. Or you decide to participate in a first-hand basic course or expert training that meet your individual situation and requirements.
For the second time, IPCOMM participated as exhibitor in IEC 61850 Europe 2016 in Amsterdam. This conference is an ideal networking forum for IEC 61850 experts from all over the world.
Now, our product spectrum comprises gateways with integrated PROFIBUS-DP master or slave interface as well as gateways with PROFINET-IO master or slave interface. ipConvPBM, ipConvPBS, ipConvPNS and soon ipConvPNM are based on ipConvLite and are available together with the hardware platform MEC2 PROFIBUS or MEC2 PROFINET.
As a device with Profibus or Profinet interface the high performance controllers MEC2 PROFIBUS and MEC2 PROFINET replace the so far used HECPS and HECPM.
At a workshop of the OPC foundation® from 2nd to 6th of November 2015 in Nuremberg, OPC UA 1.02, Server was successfully tested with OPC clients of other producers.
