.jpg) June 23, 2010 - B&R introduces software-based closed-loop temperature control package that makes commissioning of temperature control loops both faster and more effective. The closed loop control paramaters are set automatically, and additional programming is not necessary. Selected library function blocks in Automation Studio handle closed loop temperature control, and an intuitive user interface allows the user to easily select the temperature range and the temperature sensors used, as well as to define the number of temperature zones required. Optimized handling of temperature control loops The extensive package, which was designed for multi-channel temperature systems with up to 32 independent control loops, provides many auto-tuning possibilities for automatically setting control parameters. Special algorithms ensure that optimized control loop parameters are available for the machine at the push of a button. The compact interface of the controller function blocks also guarantees easy and flexible implementation in the respective automation project. An integrated Visual Components visualization system with trend functionality, data recording and user level administration optimally rounds off the B&R software package. The closed loop temperature control package can be expanded as needed and adapted to the user's individual requirements. |
