[ Focus on Chemical Machinery Equipment Network ] With the advent of the era of personalized demand, in order to flexibly respond to external market demands, enterprises need to transform their traditional production systems to smart factory models, which require interoperability, decentralization, modularization, real-time, and Service-oriented and other aspects
.
To achieve this goal, companies need to break the closed and dedicated industrial automation system, allow various complex industrial automation equipment to interact, be compatible, and coordinated, and quickly establish an efficient operation management system to meet the needs of customized production, while achieving High precision requirements for process control
.
Chemical machinery and equipment network hotspots pay attention to chemical machinery and equipment.
To achieve this goal, companies need to break the closed and dedicated industrial automation system, allow various complex industrial automation equipment to interact, be compatible, and coordinated, and quickly establish an efficient operation management system to meet the needs of customized production, while achieving High precision requirements for process control

The closedness and specificity of the automation control system still exist
The closedness and specificity of the automation control system still existAt present, in the production workshop, companies use bus technology to realize the interconnection of automation equipment.
However, this method can only solve the basic data collection and coordination problems
.
For a long time, the industrial automation field involves a wide variety of hardware devices, which are closed and specific, software and hardware are deeply bound, communication protocols and interfaces are not unified, and reusability is poor
.
If the traditional centralized control method is adopted, different protocols need to be converted.
In the process of system integration, the phenomenon of software "hardening" is serious
.
In addition, for those old equipment, its control system is expensive to maintain and upgrade, and users can't really go deep into the software environment to break down barriers

From a market perspective, automation system manufacturers have been evolving around the "hardware + software" bundling model, even if the same supplier’s different products such as PLC, servo, inverter, etc.
often have their own adaptation software for customers There are many inconveniences caused by product selection, programming, and product parameter setting, and limited interaction with the controller can only be carried out through the configuration tool provided by the supplier

In today's rapid development of IT technology, this closedness and specificity have greatly hindered the upgrade and migration of automation control software, and the in-depth and efficient integration of OT and IT

How to make the industrial automation system open?
How to make the industrial automation system open? In the era of the Internet of Everything, the way out for industrial automation is to promote the application of the Industrial Internet, realize intelligent manufacturing, and establish a fully open and interoperable automation system
.
To truly achieve the integration of IT and OT, the primary goal is to fill this gap, completely self-innovate, and integrate into the open automation ecosystem

.
Driven by market demand, industrial automation will inevitably undergo leapfrog changes, gradually moving from closed to open
.
The connotation of an open automation ecosystem is the standardization and open resource sharing of the automation industry.
Through the formulation of various standards, it creates good compatibility and cooperation for industrial automation providers, while also bringing more flexibility and cost to manufacturing companies.

.
To realize the openness of industrial control systems, we must first break down barriers and establish industry standards in the field of automation
.
For example, the IEC61131-3 international standard for PLC programming language is a global standard in the industrial control field formulated by the IEC International Electrotechnical Commission
.
IEC61131 has been widely used in industrial control occasions for a long time and is familiar to most programming engineers
.
However, the IEC61131 standard is suitable for stand-alone operation.
The design of distributed control is not only a lot of work, but also requires a lot of manual modification, which is not efficient

.
Another IEC 61499 standard is an executable system-level modeling language based on event-triggered function blocks, which provides a standardized packaging method for logic codes
.
The IEC 61499 standard has changed the state where control hardware and software have been tightly bound for many years
.
It not only solves the problems of portability, configurability and interoperability between devices of different manufacturers, but also solves the problems of software and hardware independence

Accelerate the opening process of industrial automation platform
Accelerate the opening process of industrial automation platform At present, mainstream manufacturers in the field of industrial automation are working to break the closedness and specificity of industrial equipment and launch an open industrial automation platform

As an integrated development platform, Delta’s DIAStudio, a situ platform, replaces the traditional closed development method, allowing equipment developers to quickly complete Delta automation products (such as PLC, HMI, servo, inverter, etc.
) Operations such as model selection, parameter setting, and networking debugging shorten the system configuration time and improve design convenience

With the new ctrlX AUTOMATION, Bosch Rexroth eliminates the traditional boundaries between machine control systems, IT and the Internet of Things
.
With an extensible platform, the flexible creation of centralized and decentralized automation topologies, and through the Linux real-time operating system, open standards, application programming technology, web-based engineering and comprehensive Internet of Things connections, ctrlX AUTOMATION reduces engineering debugging time and workload Reduced by 30% to 50%

In 2020, Schneider Electric launched the world's leading software-centric EcoStruxure open automation platform (EcoStruxure? Automation Expert), which is an innovative open automation product based on the IEC61499 standard
.
EcoStruxure promotes "plug and production" in the field of industrial automation by decoupling software and hardware, effectively solving the problems of portability, configurability and interoperability of application software between manufacturers, and promoting efficiency in engineering design and operation.

Summarize
Summarize In general, the construction of open industrial automation standards and platforms is still in the exploratory stage, and the application and promotion are still insufficient
.
Industry standard organizations, automation vendors, system integrators, and manufacturing companies need to work closely together to shape the application ecosystem of open industrial automation
.
Looking to the future, the opening of industrial automation is an inevitable trend that cannot be stopped.
Only in this way can the deep integration of IT and OT be truly realized, and Industry 4.
