An engineer working at a corn milling production plant receives his daily report on specific opportunities to optimize the facility’s regulatory control systems. The facility is one of dozens owned and operated by this world-class manufacturer, and it relies on 100s of PID controllers to maintain safe, profitable control. Thousands of data sets generated daily by the plant are automatically captured before being modeled and having their results aggregated.
