Before you can tune a PID controller, you must first understand how your process reacts to change. This means modeling dynamic behavior — the way a process variable responds over time. Three key parameters to consider: - Process Gain (Kp): How much the process variable (PV) changes in response to a change in the controller output. - Time Constant (τ): The speed at which the PV approaches its new value. - Dead Time (θ): The delay before the PV begins to respond. Why is this important? 1- Accurate modeling ensures you tune your controllers based on real behavior, not guesswork. 2- Better control strategies lead to optimized performance, minimizing overshoot and steady-state errors. Have you ever struggled with unexpected dead time or gain mismatches?

Your facility's data is trying to tell you something! As fellow University of Connecticut graduates, we've partnered with the Digital Frontiers Initiative, UConn School of Business and expert analysts like Ananya Shrivastava. The data is telling us how production plant's are performing - and so much more. Follow us here on LinkedIn to learn more about #ProcessControl and #ProcessOptimization. You might be surprised by what those PIDs want you to know! #ControlStation #PIDControl #DataAnalytics #ProcessAnalytics

Cascade control systems bring precision and responsiveness to process optimization — but tuning them requires more than just standard PID knowledge. Instead of relying on a single control loop, cascade control uses two interconnected controllers: - Primary Loop: Manages the main process variable (like temperature or pressure). Tuned more conservatively, it ensures overall process stability. - Secondary Loop: Assumes primary responsibility for handling disturbances, reacting faster to changes to protect the primary loop’s performance. Why does this setup work? ? Faster disturbance correction — The secondary loop catches and corrects changes before they reach the primary loop. ? Improved stability — Minimizing lag reduces oscillations. ? Enhanced performance — Tighter control means greater efficiency, reducing waste and saving money. The key? The secondary loop must have faster dynamics than the primary loop — allowing it to react swiftly and counteract disturbances effectively. ?? Are you using cascade control in your process? What’s the biggest challenge you’ve faced when tuning these loops? Let’s discuss! #ControlStation #ProcessControl #PIDTuning #ControlLoopOptimization #IndustrialAutomation #ProcessOptimization #ControlOptimization #CascadeControl

Last week, we had our Control Station’s Company Meeting. Three days were filled with idea exchanges, brainstorming sessions, and team bonding! To wrap up the week, we had an absolute blast attending a hockey game in Hartford, Connecticut! A great way to celebrate our teamwork both inside and outside the office. Excited for what’s ahead in 2025! #ControlStation #Teamwork #CompanyMeeting #ProcessOptimization
