Abstract

Adaptive control Automatic control Casting Control systems Electrical equipment industry Process control Production Programmable control Servomechanisms Three-term control
We present a new adaptive nonlinear controller for vision-based molten metal automatic pouring. We describe the challenges, modeling, identification, and control of the process. Attempts to employ proportional integral (PI) and proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers were partially successful. An adaptive sigmoidal controller improved the control quality due to its variable gain and bias. The design has been successfully implemented by the Inductotherm Corp. in a new automatic pouring system named VISIPOUR.
