Result is the outcome of the joining operation.

Joining Result includes optional elements such as step results, traces, errors, and additional information to reference the related objects like joining processes, joints, assets, etc.

The joining system can send a single result, or a group of results to evaluate the outcome of a joining process.

Note:

• The Result Management model extends the model from OPC 40001-101 – Machinery Result Transfer specification.
• For the systems which do not support multiple steps in a joining process, Result can be modelled as a single step.
