There‘s no better connection than that of a common language – which is also true for machinery. The easier machines exchange and share information, the more efficient they are. umati - the universal machine technology interface - relies on OPC UA as an open, universal interface. This enables machines and peripherals to connect to customer-specific IT ecosystems – easy, secure, and seamless. An initiative to exploit new potentials for production of the future -- throughout the world.

umati is jointly supported by VDW and VDMA and is open to participants from industry, research, organisations and networks from all over the world.
