This OPC UA ObjectType is used for the root Object representing a corrugator as part of an extrusion line. It is based on the HaulOff_InterfaceType (defined in OPC 40084-4) and formally defined in Table 1.

The instance(s) of Corrugator_InterfaceType shall be located under the DeviceSet Object of the Server (see OPC UA Part 100).

NOTE: If the OPC UA server is implemented in the control of the corrugator so only one instance of Corrugator_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 Corrugator_InterfaceType will be created.

The BrowseName of the object instance shall be "Corrugator_<Manufacturer>_<SerialNumber>"

Example: "Corrugator_Unicor_0123456".

The DeviceClass Property in the MachineInformation Object inside the ExtrusionDeviceType shall have the value "Corrugator".

Id of the currently installed mould.

This Property describes, if the (main) extruder is allowed to run. This information is mainly for the MES. The signal to the extruder is usually a hardware/bus signal.
