Asset Administration Shell

The Industrial Twin Association (IDTA)externallink 20 governs the Asset Administration Shell — the standard for digital twins.

Bosch Semantic Stack realizes this standard by incorporating it in its tools:

  • Digital Twin Registry stores information about Asset Administration Shells and their Submodels.

  • Aspect Models and Asset Administration Shells interact in both directions: Aspect Models based on SAMM can be used as semantic descriptions for Asset Administration Shell Submodel Templates, while from a given Aspect Model, you can then automatically generate the corresponding Submodel Template for your AAS.

Supported API Versions

AAS V3.0

The Digital Twin Registry supports Asset Administration Shell V3.0 (AAS V3.0) API profiles:

That means the Digital Twin Registry by Bosch Semantic Stack does not only provide the required READ operations of the Asset Administration Shell Registry profile and the Discovery profile but also the WRITE operations.

Bear in mind that the Asset Administration Shell registry API and the Digital Twin Registry API do not work in synchronization, so if you perform an action in one of them, it will not be instantly visible in the other one.
