OPC-UA Connectivity
An open industrial communications protocol that allows a plate roll's control system to exchange real-time production and maintenance data directly with local factory networks and MES software.
Technical FAQ
Corporate management needs visibility into machine uptime, cycle times, and maintenance data across the entire factory floor. OPC-UA is a secure, open communications standard that links the rolling machine's PLC directly with factory plant networks and MES systems. It enables real-time monitoring of machine performance and production reporting, helping management optimize workflows and plan predictive maintenance. Davi CNC systems offer optional Industry 4.0 plugins to ensure seamless data integration with modern smart factories.
Complex mechanical or hydraulic adjustments may require direct guidance from factory engineers to ensure a safe, correct fix. Optional smart glasses utilize a "Talk & Watch" video link to share the operator's live field of view directly with technical experts. It enables real-time visual collaboration, speeds up problem diagnosis, and helps your team complete complex adjustments safely without waiting for an on-site visit. This visual support option is fully integrated into Davi's advanced iRoll service environment.
Untrained personnel operating heavy rolling machinery can lead to serious accidents or equipment damage. A badge login system restricts machine operation, requiring users to scan an authorized ID badge before unlocking the CNC console. It ensures that only qualified, trained operators can run specific production programs, protecting both workshop safety and equipment assets. Davi control consoles can be configured with secure user access controls to support plant safety protocols.
