Dead Time Compensation: What Every Control Engineer Should Know Before Turning It On June 25, 2026 | Services, Consulting & Training - Dead time is the single most limiting factor in any control loop. It is the total elapsed time from the start of a change until it completes a trip around the entire loop and returns to the point of origin. Read More
Improving Mining Reliability with Wireless Monitoring and Edge AI June 25, 2026 | Metals, Mining, Minerals, Reliability - Why this matters now Mining has always been a challenging industry. Mine sites are inherently dirty operations and are often situated in very remote locations. As critical minerals become increasingly scarce, those conditions are exacerbated, as mining operations are forced to push further out into more remote locations and dig even deeper to extract the… Read MoreLatest Posts
Meeting Grid Interconnection Requirements for Inverter-Based Resources
Inverter-based resources, or IBRs, now supply a growing share of grid capacity, yet they behave very differently from the synchronous machines that utilities have modeled for decades. Because they convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) through power electronics, they lack the inherent inertia as they connect to the grid through power electronic converters rather than synchronous machines.
OEE Is a Diagnostic Tool, Not the Goal
TL;DR High OEE does not guarantee optimal operational performance. Bottlenecks often originate outside of equipment effectiveness. Real-time scheduling provides broader visibility into the value stream. Simulation helps identify the root causes behind performance...
Closing Measurement Gaps with Non-Intrusive Measurement Technologies
Plants often operate with measurement gaps that limit visibility into critical processes and assets. Organizations cannot improve what they do not measure, making accurate and accessible process data a foundational requirement for operational improvement.
Level Measurement: The Quiet Force Behind Safer, Smarter South African Mines
Measurement instrumentation is what lets a mine speed up without losing control. Measure the right points, control the process better, and you can push output while still meeting safety and sustainability goals.
Moving Beyond Spreadsheets: Real-Time Scheduling Drives Operational Excellence
TL;DR Many life sciences manufacturers still rely on spreadsheet-based scheduling. Manual scheduling is prone to errors, delays, and limited visibility. DeltaV Real Time scheduling software dynamically adapts to plant conditions. Integrated scheduling improves...
Breaking Down Data Silos to Unlock Industrial Performance
TL;DR Many OT teams are overwhelmed by unstructured data. Data silos limit visibility and prevent actionable insights. Modern edge infrastructure improves data access and context. Edge controllers enable reliable connectivity in remote environments. Low-latency data...
