The MTP Hub as an enabler for existing modular systems

MTP is not only for greenfield projects.
This presentation shows how existing plants and modular systems can be retrofitted using MTP hubs and gateways. Through concrete architectures, you see how legacy PLCs, remote IO and non‑MTP equipment can be wrapped into MTP‑compliant modules without rewriting everything.

Engineers learn how multiple PEAs can run on shared hardware, how OPC UA namespaces separate functionality, and how containerisation increases robustness. The result: old systems gain new flexibility.

If your plant is already modular—but not MTP‑ready—this session provides a realistic migration path. No hype. Just engineering pragmatism.
