How CLPM Can Optimize Throughout a Lifecycle of Optimization
It may be helpful for production staff to view optimization as it really is: A never-ending project. Indeed, there is no fixed finish line. Those assigned to optimization need to
Using Average Absolute Error to Uncover Tuning Issues
Average Absolute Error (AAE) Provides an Intuitive Alternative to Variance and Simplifies the Assessment of Changes in PID Controller Performance.
Quite simply, things at a manufacturing facility can change
Using the Oscillation Metric to Uncover Tuning Issues
There’s a wealth of information available in most every data historian. The data can be used to evaluate the performance of a plant’s regulatory control systems in general and to
What is Variance? What Metrics are Useful in Identifying Process Change?
Ever walk onto the production floor and just sense that something was different? Whether it was something you saw, heard or even felt, a certain sixth sense kicked in and
