Maximize Your Asset Performance
INCATools, by IPCOS, is a set of process control tools that optimize your plant operations. The suite contains the most powerful PID tuning tools on the market and powerful MPC and softsensing tools used in many processes around the world.
What defines IPCOS’ INCATools?
INCA AptiTune: PID tuning tool for tuning all PID loops on all common DCS and PLC systems. Based on engineering specifications. For tuning individual and interacting PID loops.
INCA MPC: A popular MPC tool used in the (Petro)chemical, fertilizer, power, waste and cement industry around the world. Flexible licensing models.
INCA Sensor: A powerfull softsensor (inferential) toolkit. Used to estimate in real time properties like: concentrations, MFR, MI, viscosity, but also emissions, mass flows, etc.
Best practices
- Look beyond: Look beyond the controllers. Look at the process, the instruments, the actuators.
- Start with the foundation: The DCS/PLC is the basis of all controls. Start to optimize this first.
- Keep it Simple: Keep in mind that complex controls need complex maintenance and good up-to-date documentation.
- Maintenance is key: Optimal control generates benefits. That is proven. Maintaining them will guarantee the benefits remain.
- Use the right tools: with the right process control tools you can optimize your plant on a first times right basis.
