Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control is a common type of automatic control used in the power industry. Properly tuning controllers is important.

Tuning PID controllers for integrating or near-integrating processes is counterintuitive when compared to tuning for self-regulating processes. Most published PID controller tuning methods for ...

Most published PID controller tuning methods are designed for optimum load regulation, not necessarily optimum process performance. The lambda tuning method provides the ability to tune the PID ...

The PID Tuning Translator converts PID tuning from one industrial PID controller to another. It converts PID values from any of more than 490 different industrial PID controllers to the new system.

PID loops are a central component of modulating boiler control systems with applications ranging from basic steam header pressure control to cascading 3-element drum level control. A modern ...

To properly design a complex motion controller, you need to know what PID is all about. Proportional-integral-derivative, or PID, control is the most common type of controller used in industry ...

The PID controller itself seems fairly robust, and includes a number of features that seasoned controls engineers would look for in their PID controllers.

By the way, we’ve covered a PID library for Arduino before. While this post talks about temperature, PID control is used for everything from flight control to levitation.
