To meet these customer requirements, it should be possible to use the information model to find out the operating status of the blasting system. General machine statuses such as "Executing", "Not Executing", "Out of Service". The status of selected production orders should also be displayed.

To meet these customer requirements, the blasting system should provide information on the current operating parameters of the production process. It is necessary to be able to query the prevailing operating parameters (e.g. rotational speeds, transport speeds, blasting media type, etc.).

To fulfill these customer requirements, the blasting system should provide information on individual production orders. This includes:

• which products (product serial number; batch number of the batch)
• when (date, time)
• with which parameters (machine settings, program number/recipe, speeds, blast media quantity, transport speed, blast media type, blast duration, ...)
• with which result (iO; niO)
• with what consumption of operating materials (abrasive, ...)
• with what energy consumption (compressed air, electricity, water)

In order to meet customer requirements, it is necessary to set up a wide variety of counters (e.g. operating time counters, blasting time counters, counters for certain components and processes, etc.).

The customer would like to be able to access standardized identification data on the machine's type plate (e.g. manufacturer, serial number, year of manufacture, etc.) to connect the blasting machine.

The customer wants to be able to determine KPI figures as precisely as possible using a wide variety of data. For example, it is necessary to show how many objects were blasted in what time, the conveyor speed of the system and the status of the entire system for which time intervals.

Furthermore, any relevant consumption of operating materials (blasting material) and resources (electricity, water) should be recorded and made available.

If available, the customer wants to be able to fall back on cross-industry preparatory work and comply with existing standards. The OPC UA for Machinery standard should be mentioned here in particular. If possible and sensible, different building blocks from OPC UA for Machinery should be implemented in the information model of the blasting systems.
