Question

Hello community,

 

For my current project, I need to implement a OPC UA server on top of  a Kuka robot and stream the process data to Thingworx composer. What would be the best way to implement this? Is there a OPC UA client implementation for Thingworx Composer that I could connect to the server? 

 

Thanks a lot for advise!

    Or you may use the OPC Aggregator (which features OPC-DA and OPC-UA clients) pointed out here https://developer.thingworx.com/resources/downloads/manufacturing-trial-editionand it's the replacement for the old OPC-DA agent and it may become the replacement to OPC-UA client on the marketplace too. OPC Aggregator it's based on Kepware which in theory it's the path to follow.
