This book provides a comprehensive in-depth look into the practical application of AutomationML Edition 2 from an industrial perspective. It is a cookbook for advanced users and describes re-usable pattern solutions for a variety of industrial applications and how to implement it in software. Just to name some: AutomationML modelling of AAS, MTP, SCD, OPC UA, Automation Components, Automation Projects, drive configurations, requirement models, communication systems, electrical interfaces and cables, or semantic integration aspects as eClass integration or handling of semantic heterogeneity. This book guides through the universe of Auto­mationML from industrial perspective. It is written by AutomationML experts that have industrially implemented AutomationML in pattern solutions for a large variety of applications. This book is structured into three major parts. • Part I: software implementation for developers • Part II: re-usable industrial pattern solutions and domain models • Part III: outlook into future AutomationML applications Additional material to the book and more information about AutomationML on the website: https://www.automationml.org/about-automationml/publications/amlbook/

Das Buch gibt erstmals einen umfassenden Uberblick uber die Technologie AutomationML und die Integration von CAEX, COLLADA und PLCopen XML. Mit AutomationML soll die Interoperabilitat zwischen digitalen Werkzeugen im Engineering-Prozess gefordert werden. Es ist das erste kostenfrei zugangliche, offene und XML-basierte Format, das ubergreifend eine Vielzahl von Planungsaspekten kombiniert. Das Buch ist ein Gemeinschaftswerk des AutomationML-Konsortiums. Es wurde so konzipiert, dass es als Kompendium und zugleich als Entscheidungshilfe dienen kann."

This book is a beginner's guide to AutomationML Edition 2, written for students, engineers, lecturers, developers and those interested. In guides through the basics of AutomationML Edition 2, CAEX and the AutomationML Editor. AutomationML stands for digitisation of engineering data and engineering workflows. AutomationML achieves both human readability and machine-readability. It is a method for converting data into digital information, and it supports the special needs of iterative engineering data exchange. AutomationML is in the hot spot of the digitisation of automation engineering data. It enables the modelling and transport of engineering data in a vendor neutral and machine-readable models, a valuable source of digital innovation. Machine readable engineering data makes the data accessible and interpretable by software, enabling a plethora of opportunities. This book carefully introduces AutomationML, its goals, values and innovations. It teaches the architecture of AutomationML and explains the language elements with a multitude of examples and step-by-step instructions.
