Case History 193: The big dipper.
I&C July 2024, Editor's Choice, Michael Brown Control Engineering
This article gives an example of an important flow control system for flare gas in a petrochemical refinery. The control was suffering from serious problems, often cycling severely, and at other times the flow process variable (PV) would suddenly move quite a lot away from the setpoint (SP). |

New lubrication-free rod ends
I&C July 2024, Motion Control & Drives, igus
The constant need for relubrication of metallic bearing points on rod ends in industrial applications is a time-consuming and expensive exercise and poses a real contamination risk. As a result, igus has developed maintenance-free polymer-hybrid spherical bearings which are a safer and more cost-effective alternative. |
Digital twin capabilities periodic table released
I&C July 2024, News
The Digital Twin Consortium recently announced Version 1.1 of the Digital Twin Capabilities Periodic Table. This is an architecture- and technology-agnostic requirements definition framework for organisations that want to design, develop, deploy, and operate digital twins based on use case capability requirements versus the features of technology solutions. |
Driving sustainable development through education and innovation
I&C July 2024, News, RS South Africa
