Automatic identification of physical objects

IEC 61406 (predecessor specification DIN SPEC 91406)

For an efficient maintenance process, all components in a plant must be clearly identifiable. About 30 companies from the process industry have worked together to develop a global standard for this. The result is the so called IEC 61406.  This is a globally unique, machine-readable ID that is applied to a physical object – similar to a type plate or label.

This makes it easy to identify physical objects in a plant. In the future, mobile devices can identify the objects in the plant or along the supply chain and production employees can directly access relevant information such as maintenance plans or parts lists on site.

Asset Data Creator

The Asset Data Creator from Codewerk allows easy creation of Administration Shells (AAS)  including matching ID-Links according to IEC 61406-series.

Documents are added with a few clicks and are provided with the submodel Handover Documentation (IDTA 02004-1-2), which is based on VDI 2770.

The complete AASX file can be downloaded after creation and used in any AAS-compatible Repository or Tool. Additionally, all created AAS can be accessed via a QR-Code and matching Login-credentials in the codewerk platform.

Feature overview:

  • Provision of basic asset information with the Digital Nameplate submodel (IDTA 02006-3-0), containing the IEC 61406-series ID-Link.
  • Provision of documents with the Handover Documentation submodel (IDTA 02004-1-2).
  • Provision of device images and technical properties with the Technical Data submodel (IDTA-02003-1-2).
  • Creation of AAS from physical nameplates using our AI tool.
  • Provisioning of data via IEC 61406-series compliant QR codes.

Asset Data Creator is provided by Codewerk GmbH.

Currently, the platform is free of charge.
You can create your free Login at https://aas.codewerk.de and start with the creation of your assets.
