System Control

Open- and closed-loop control with the determinism budget — jitter, latency, failure behaviour — stated up front.

Motion, motor and process control where the timing budget and the failure behaviour are specified before the controller is written.

Closed-loop controlThe loop. The determinism budget — sample rate, jitter, worst-case latency — is agreed on the controller before the controller is written.SetpointtargetControllerPID · staterate · jitterDrivePWM · inverterPlantmotor · valveSensorencoder · currentFeedbackmeasured value

Scope

What we do

  • Closed-loop control design: plant modelling, loop shaping, and PID or state-space tuning against measured response.
  • High-speed and real-time loops — motor commutation, motion profiles — with worst-case latency characterised.
  • Sensor acquisition and filtering chains sized for the control bandwidth.
  • Fault detection and safe-state behaviour defined and tested, not assumed.
  • Field tuning: behaviour under real load, not just on the bench.
  • Multi-channel data logging tied into the same timebase as the controller.

Typical stack

  • closed-loop
  • pid-tuning
  • motor-control
  • real-time
  • determinism
  • stm32

Standards worked to

Applicable standards are agreed at the start of a programme and written into the scope. Certificates we hold are shared on request.
