Pavilion8 - Model Predictive Control by Pavilion Technologies :: Last updated on November 13, 2006

Pavilion8 Model Predictive Control (MPC) technology powers the company's industry-specific control applications to improve production processes every production minute. As a result, manufacturers are able to increase production, reduce manufacturing costs, enhance product quality, and improve the flexibility of production assets.

Pavilion8 provides unparalleled control performance on a wide range of production processes, from simple linear to the most challenging non-linear processes. The powerful MPC technology incorporates dynamic optimization, simultaneously ensuring optimal control without violating economic, process or equipment constraints. Pavilion's MPC technology delivers faster-time-to-value and more sustained value than alternative approaches.

Key Features

• Multivariable Control: Multi-input, multi-output processes
• Nonlinear Control: Highly nonlinear input/output relationships
• Online Predictions: Future trajectories are incorporated into control
• Hybrid Modeling: Combines empirical models with first principles knowledge
• Parametric Control: Explicit incorporation of variable dynamic responses in controller model
• Dynamic Nonlinear Optimization: Incorporates non-linear gains and variable dynamics simultaneously
• Computationally efficient architecture
• Throughput Maximization/Cost Minimization
• Multi-Unit Optimization
• Embedded controller performance metrics with historization of controller performance
• Modeling, Control, Optimization and Performance Visualization embedded in the same Pavilion8 architecture
