As the `Industry 4.0' has been proposed, the need of large-scale systems integration has become more urgent. Currently, Internet of things (IoT) systems used in intelligent manufacturing are commonly developed by different organizations using specific technologies and platforms, which brings a lot of difficulties in monitoring equipment access and seamless integration. To solve the aforementioned problem, a novel model of the Internet of things instrument (IoTI) is proposed. The IoTI designed based on the new model can achieve automatic access to different sensing devices, seamless integration and communication for heterogeneous environments. It can also improve the development efficiency. During the development, integration and application of IoTI, we validate the rationality and feasibility of aforesaid model. The results show that the model is efficient and feasible, which realizes the heterogeneous system integration and improves development efficiency.
