What is MTConnect?

MTConnect is a standard recognized as ANSI/MTC1.4-2018. It introduces a semantic vocabulary specifically designed for manufacturing equipment, enabling them to offer structured, contextualized data without the need for proprietary formats.

What is MtconnectTranspiler?

The MtconnectTranspiler library serves as a comprehensive framework designed for deserializing the SysML model of MTConnect®. Its primary function is to facilitate the conversion of this model into other formats, streamlining the process of integrating MTConnect® into various applications and systems.

Key Features:

• Deserialization of SysML Models: At its core, MtconnectTranspiler excels in converting the SysML model (XMI format) into an object-oriented model that adheres to the MTConnect standard. This process ensures that the data structure is not only precise but also contextually aligned with MTConnect's specifications.
• Automatic Code Generation: Leveraging the deserialized models, the library can automatically generate C# code, such as Enums and classes. This capability significantly reduces the manual coding effort and minimizes errors in interpreting the standard.

Use Cases:

An exemplary application of MtconnectTranspiler is found in the MtconnectCore library. Here, the automatically generated Enums and classes are instrumental in validating MTConnect® implementations, ensuring they comply with the standard's requirements.
