OPTIMIZING

Eliminate The Guesswork, Get It Right The First Time

The age of trial-and-error tuning has ended. It’s no longer necessary to adjust tuning coefficients time and time again in order to achieve optimal loop control. LOOP-PRO’s graphic tools and descriptive statistics eliminate the guess work. They provide the insights that you need to get tuning coefficients right the first time around.

LOOP-PRO enables users to graphically simulate the performance of new tuning parameters and to evaluate control improvements based on a core set of key performance indicators. Using the Internal Model Control (IMC) correlations, a controller can be easily adjusted for its unique control objective. With LOOP-PRO’s Closed-Loop Time Constant slider bar, a given controller can be customized for either a more aggressive or a more conservative response. KPIs such as Settling Time and Percent Overshoot assure that LOOP-PRO tunings deliver the appropriate control.

Each license of LOOP-PRO supports multiple concurrent instances and it easily supports the tuning of two or more cascaded loops.

SUCCESS STORIES

What customers and partners are saying about Control Station

3M

"I had a temperature differential that was low and a flow that was high. So high in fact that it required 2 chillers to run. We used LOOP-PRO to tune the process. After tuning 75 loops, the temperature differential was at an industry standard and the flow was lower. It saved us maintenance time, energy, and productivity."

Jason Rumpza
Process Control Engineer

Bigelow Liptak

"Optimizing controller performance was a breeze with LOOP-PRO. A single bump test was all that we needed to accurately model the complex dynamics of each control loop. The software’s graphics made it easy to finely tune parameters for optimal responsiveness and control. It easily reduced the time we budgeted for tuning by over 80%. It’s a truly remarkable product."

Neil Gordon
Engineering Manager

Rockwell Automation

"TUNER has proven to be an integral and valuable optimization technology for many of our process customers. Its ease-of-use and high return on investment directly align with our goals for the PlantPAx system."

Greg Hood
Business Development Manager

OSIsoft

"PlantESP is a great example of advanced diagnostic technology that enables manufacturers to capture hidden value."

Timothy Johnson
Director of Partners and Strategic Alliances

YOKOGAWA

"PlantESP includes a loop monitoring capability that delves deeply into the health and performance of PID controllers. The insight that it provides is essential to our customer’s ability to maintain profitable production."

Jorge Pinto
Manager of Advanced Solution Sales
