Process Control Training

The majority of the tuning rules taught in school are based upon out-dated methods, such as quarter-amplitude decay. These tuning methods will often increase rather than decrease process variability. Any increase in variability is certain to have a negative impact on process efficiency and product quality. Most electrical and instrumentation technicians, when faced with a 'real world' tuning situation, will resort to the time tested method of 'trial and error'.

Loop Tuning I is designed to expose instrumentation professionals to modern loop tuning techniques. These techniques are based on current control engineering principles. They provide robust controller response in continuously varying process conditions and are effective at reducing process variability. The methods are demonstrated on a simulator during lab exercises and reinforced with numerous classroom examples.

Loop Tuning I is designed to dispel the myth of the ART of control loop tuning. Tuning a process control loop is a SCIENCE. In this age of global economies and competition, product quality and manufacturing efficiency should not be left to 'trial and error'.
