Digitalization in industrial automation requires consistent communications across all levels while using Internet technologies. The OPC Foundation and the CLPA hope to enable digitilization by developing an interface specification.

At the Hannover Fair, Thomas J. Burke, President and Executive Director of the OPC Foundation and Naomi Nakamura, Global Director of the CC-Link Partner Association signed a Memorandum of Understanding in which both organizations agree to closely cooperate while developing these interfaces.
