Calender_InterfaceType Definition
The Calender_InterfaceType is used for the root Object representing a calender as part of an extrusion line. It is based on the ExtrusionDeviceType (defined in OPC 40084-1) and formally defined in Table 1.
The instance(s) of Calender_InterfaceType shall be located under the Machines Object of the Server (see OPC UA for Machinery).
NOTE: If the OPC UA server is implemented directly in the control of a calender then only one instance of Calender_InterfaceType will be created. But it is also possible that one OPC UA server is connected to several machine controls as one interface to the MES. In this case several instances of Calender_InterfaceType will be created.

The BrowseName of the object instance shall start with “Calender”. It may be extended with additional information, e.g. a number (”Calender_1”) or manufacturer/serial number (“Calender_Bandera_0123456”).
NOTE: Clients will browse the root node by type and not by BrowseName.
DeviceClass
The DeviceClass Property in the Identification Object inside the ExtrusionDeviceType shall have the value “Calender”.
HorizontalPosition, VerticalPosition
Position of the calender from a reference point (e.g. floor for vertical position, centre of exit of feeding device (e.g. flat die) for horizontal position).
Unit: mm or inch
ProductForce
Force of outgoing product.
Unit: N or lbf
ProductTension
Tension of outgoing product.
Unit: N/mm² or lbf/in²
CouplingProductForces
Force of ingoing “sub product”
Unit: N or lbf

Rolls and Gaps
These containers represent the calender rolls and the gaps between them. The RollsType and GapsType are defined in OPC 40084-1.
