About INCA MPC
Advanced Process Control (APC) is a very cost-effective way to optimize your plant performance without changing the hardware. An APC application stabilizes the operation and optimizes production and/or energy consumption. A very valuable side effect also results in a better understanding of your production process. Advanced process control (APC) refers to a broad range of techniques and technologies that interact with the base layer process control systems (built up with PID controls). Some APC technologies are e.g. LQR, LQC, H_infinity, Neural, fuzzy, and MPC (Model-Based Predictive Control). An APC application optimizes your plant every minute, over and over again, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. MPC is the most popular APC technology used in the industry. The Model Predictive Control software uses a model of the process to predict the behavior of the plant in the foreseeable future. Typically a couple of minutes to even several hours ahead.
