The GlassMachineType provides the information of the machine and is formally defined in Table 12. A Machine or system can contain other subsystems (e.g. other machines or devices). Such a complex system can be modelled with the component structure from OPC UA Machinery (see OPC 40001-1section 11).

This GlassMachine object can be further divided into subtypes using the modular device structure from OPC UA for Machinery.
