This OPC UA ObjectType is used for the root Object representing an extrusion line as overall system. It is formally defined in Table 1.

The instance(s) of ExtrusionLine_InterfaceType shall be located under the Machines Object of the Server (see OPC UA for Machinery).

NOTE: In most cases the OPC UA server will be implemented in the line control of the extrusion line so only one instance of ExtrusionLine_InterfaceType will be created. But it is also possible that one OPC UA server is connected to several extrusion lines as one interface to the MES. In this case several instances of ExtrusionLine_InterfaceType will be created.
