This solution is designed to address various issues manufacturers deal with, such as ensuring data reliability, accuracy, easy maintenance, and cost-effective storage of process data.

Matrikon OPC Hub and Spoke

Reliable Data Transfer

The OPC Hub and Spoke system addresses key challenges like reliability, accuracy, and cost-effective data storage. It combines different OPC technologies to securely and reliably send business and process data from remote areas to a central storage system. This allows you to analyze and track data directly from its source.

Process data needs to be both accurate and secure. If your communication network is unreliable, it can compromise the quality of your data. With the OPC Hub and Spoke system, you can safely collect and store data at its source. When communication is restored, the data is sent to the main storage, ensuring no loss of data or quality.

OPC HDA (Historical Data Access) is a standard used for sharing stored data. It makes it simple to transfer archived data between applications and storage systems in a consistent way. This standard ensures compatibility across different systems, as it's supported by most major vendors.

Tunneling Technology

Matrikon OPC Tunneller simplifies reliable communication by eliminating DCOM hassles and ensuring seamless data sharing across protocols, security settings, and locations. Just install it on both the OPC client and server, set the computer name or IP with port settings, and enjoy hassle-free connectivity. No more configuration headaches!

History Link

Matrikon OPC HistoryLink is based on Matrikon OPC Tunnelling technology and allows two OPC HDA process historians to share historical data. It can transfer data on a scheduled basis (ScheduleLink) or based on a process trigger (MonitorLink). Managing historical data is now much simpler. HistoryLink also supports remote configuration.

Buffer

Matrikon OPC Buffer is a ready-made solution for collecting data from remote locations, storing it, and with the optional History-Link module, transferring historical data to a central system. It is ideal for engineers and project managers who need reliable data collection and delivery from distant sites.

Desktop Historian

Matrikon OPC Desktop Historian is a cost-effective tool for manufacturers needing to analyze process data. It is simple to install, configure, and manage. Unlike larger enterprise historians that handle corporate-wide data, this tool focuses on collecting data, not on presenting or processing it.
