If yes, what is the best way to do this?

Hi @RaulBernardo.PV 

Based on my experience, once I used the MQTT extension to communicate with PLC ( which publishes data through MQTT )

If PLC has OPC Server configured. You can use Thingworx OPC Aggregator to connect with PLC 

More information on OPC Aggregator :

You can download OPC Aggregator from the PTC site under Thingworx Foundation family
