General Description

The PID Control and Regulation Unit of a Ball and Beam System, "RYC-BB", designed by EDIBON allows the study of a classical unstable dynamic process in automatic control. It consists of a beam driven by a motor that regulates its inclination, on which a steel ball moves. The unit includes a position sensor that detects the location of the ball along the beam. The objective is to maintain the ball at a given position by continuously adjusting the angle of the beam, analyzing system stability, transient response, and behavior under disturbances.

Exercises and guided practices

GUIDED PRACTICAL EXERCISES INCLUDED IN THE MANUAL

  1. DC motor position control with a PID controller.
  2. Ball and Beam control (RYC-BB) with a lead compensator and a PID controller (cascade control).

MORE PRACTICAL EXERCISES TO BE DONE WITH THE UNIT

  1. Many students view results simultaneously. To view all results in real time in the classroom by means of a projector or an electronic whiteboard.
  2. Open Control, Multicontrol and Real Time Control. This unit allows intrinsically and/or extrinsically to change the span, gains, proportional, integral, derivative parameters, etc, in real time.
  3. This unit is totally safe as uses mechanical, electrical and electronic, and software safety devices.
  4. This unit can be used for doing applied research.
  5. This unit can be used for giving training courses to Industries even to other Technical Education Institutions.
  6. Control of the RYC-BB unit process through the control interface box without the computer.
  7. Visualization of all the sensors values used in the RYC-BB unit process.
  8. Several other exercises can be done and designed by the user.
