SUMMARY:261028 From Static PID to Self-Optimising Industri
 al Control with Star Refrigeration and Saliqo
DESCRIPTION:The world runs on industrial control. A typical in
 dustrial plant has hundreds to thousands of contro
 l loops to regulate variables such as temperature\
 , pressure\, flow\, level\, speed and position. Ye
 t most control loops still rely on fixed-gain PID 
 control: a technology over 100 years old\, that ca
 n lose performance as loads\, equipment and operat
 ing conditions change.\n \n Join CeeD\, Saliqo and
  Star Refrigeration for a practical session on mov
 ing beyond repeated tuning and reactive manual opt
 imisation. We will show how Saliqo&rsquo\;s model-
 free adaptive control software adds an intelligent
  control layer directly to existing PLCs and embed
 ded hardware - without cloud infrastructure\, comp
 lex plant models or additional hardware.\n \n Sali
 qo combines a deterministic\, aerospace-derived co
 ntrol core with AI-based adaptation. The AI augmen
 ts engineered logic rather than replacing it\, all
 owing the controller to adjust continuously as pro
 cess dynamics change while retaining predictable b
 ehaviour at the edge.\n \n The session will centre
  on Saliqo&rsquo\;s work with Star Refrigeration a
 cross industrial freezers and chillers. Saliqo&rsq
 uo\;s control technology is operating in 17 system
 s across 10 industrial sites\, with challenging ap
 plications including compressor capacity control\,
  coupled-vessel level-control and valve position f
 or superheat control.\n \n Attendees will see the 
 operational case behind the technology: reported r
 esults include a 60% reduction in overshoot\, a 50
 % improvement in temperature tracking\, reduction 
 in &nbsp\;commissioning time and labour\, more tha
 n 150 maintenance hours saved per year and a 15% e
 nergy saving through optimised economiser operatio
 n. We will also discuss what was required to integ
 rate the software into existing PLC-based systems 
 and where adaptive control may create value elsewh
 ere.\n \n What you will take away\n \n \n 	Why sta
 tic PID control loses performance when process con
 ditions vary\n 	How Saliqo&rsquo\;s model-free ada
 ptive control works - and how deterministic logic 
 and AI are combined\n 	What Star Refrigeration&rsq
 uo\;s deployments reveal about commissioning\, mai
 ntenance\, energy and control performance\n 	How t
 he software runs at the control layer on existing 
 PLCs\, without cloud infrastructure or new hardwar
 e\n 	How to identify high-value candidate control 
 loops in refrigeration\, thermal systems\, water\,
  food and beverage\, manufacturing and other proce
 ss industries\n 	A practical route from applicatio
 n discovery and proof of value to repeatable deplo
 yment\n \n \n Bring a control challenge. If your p
 rocess suffers from variability\, overshoot\, repe
 ated tuning\, long commissioning or avoidable ener
 gy use\, this session will help you assess whether
  an adaptive-control pilot could deliver measurabl
 e value with minimal disruption.
