The need of interoperable and secure IT interfaces of manufacturing equipment and related test services in the context of plug-and-produce is essential in the scope of digital transformation. The paper will focus on a test service validating the compliance of new machinery regarding the manufacturing IT infrastructure and applications such as production data acquisition (PDA). It will be demonstrated in terms of a prerequisite for interoperability and using OPC-UA.
