PID Loop Tuning Technology
Document your PID controller tuning sessions automatically with LOOP-PRO’s Reporting feature.
Reporting
Log Each Tuning Session And Generate Reports
It’s not uncommon for production and engineering staff to forget important details while tuning PID controllers. Whether tuning is performed manually or with the help of other software tools, there are multiple steps to follow and numerous decisions to make. There is data to sample and models to calculate. Then there are decisions related to controller responsiveness and loop stability. While each choice can be helpful when reviewing results with coworkers or as a future reference resource, keeping track of those decisions and the related details isn’t easy.
LOOP-PRO understands the power of a paper trail and it does the work for you – automatically. The software logs each tuning session and it generates a report that details key analysis and decisions. From data ranges and model characteristics to response simulations and descriptive statistics, LOOP-PRO captures and records each step along the way.
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."
