MTConnect Client TOP Server + 1 Year Support & Maintenance Agreement
Provides a TOP Server communication interface for shop-floor equipment that exposes data via the MTConnect standard.
MTConnect is an open manufacturing connectivity standard maintained by the MTConnect Institute, aimed at connecting shop-floor technologies to monitoring/analysis applications.
Helps deliver real-time operational data into client applications (such as HMI, SCADA, Historian, MES, ERP, and custom apps) through TOP Server interfaces.
Available as a standalone driver and also as part of the TOP Server Manufacturing Suite.
