Actuators |
Mechanisms that carry out control actions based on signals from controllers to adjust process variables. |
Derivative Control |
A control action that predicts future error based on its rate of change, helping to dampen system response. |
Disturbances |
Unpredictable changes in the environment that can affect system performance. |
Feedback Control Systems |
Systems that automatically adjust their operation to maintain a desired output by measuring deviations from setpoints. |
Feedforward Control Systems |
These systems are designed to predict process disturbances and take corrective actions before they impact the system. |
Industrial Automation |
The use of control systems for operating equipment in various industries to reduce human intervention. |
Integral Control |
A control action that accumulates the error over time to eliminate steady-state error. |
Process Control Systems |
Systems designed to manage and regulate industrial operations to ensure optimal performance. |
Proportional Control |
A control action that adjusts the output proportionally to the current error value. |
Real-Time Data Analysis |
The process of collecting and interpreting data as it is generated to enable immediate insights and actions. |
Sensors |
Devices that collect data about a process variable, such as temperature or pressure. |
Setpoint |
The target value that a system aims to achieve and maintain during operation. |
