Visual modeling tools result in better dynamic process models, resulting in optimal PID Tuning, accurate simulated response to upsets, accurate response to process noise, and better analysis.

PlantTriage's new visual modeling tools result in better dynamic process models. Better models give better all-around analysis resulting in optimal PID Tuning, accurate simulated response to upsets, accurate response to process noise, and better robustness analysis.Drag-and-drop modeling puts the engineer in control of the model fit. Using any bump test data, drag the model curve to match the actual response curve. Instantly, PlantTriage finds a dynamic process model that reflects the visually designed response.

PlantTriage uses this model to give optimal PID values, simulate responses to upsets and noise. Drag-and-drop modeling is fully compatible with PlantTriage’s Active Model Capture Technology. With Active Model Capture, operator setpoint moves are automatically captured and modeled. The resulting model can then be fine-tuned using the drag-and-drop features.John Gerry, President of ExperTune says, "The end results of these visual modeling tools are optimal plant operations.

This ultimately, boosts efficiency and production while reducing waste and energy usage."
