Interconnectivity and the standardization of communications promotes growth Industry 4.0. The most modern industrial machinery, devices processes are equipped with communication systems that favor such connectivity throughout standards as OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture). On other hand, older computer numerical control (CNCs), although generating large amounts data, lack standardized interfaces. Based on above, purpose this research has been to provide a subset...
