WHAT IS SPIRO MPC?

Spiro MPC is a multivariable model predictive control application. The application comes embedded on a small footprint edge device, designed to connect to any control system easily. When embedded with Spiro MPC, the edge device is able to automate control of connected assets and can maintain processes at their optimal operating point.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Spiro MPC employs highly efficient state space control algorithms which achieve millisecond execution frequency. By continuously monitoring and analysing sensor data, Spiro MPC can calculate and execute the optimal set of control moves needed to move a process to its most profitable limits.

In addition, support for cloud platform integration through the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) makes the solution future ready.

    Using a model of the process together with sensor data captured by the edge device, Spiro MPC can map where a process is going and predict the impact that anticipated disturbances will have on your operation. Using this predictive information together with knowledge of operational constraints, Spiro MPC effects actions that minimise the impact of disturbances while also moving the process closer to the economic optimum point.

    The benefits delivered by Spiro MPC all ultimately translate to increased profitability. Typically a full return on investment is achieved within 3-6 months.

      Why choose Spiro MPC?

      Why choose Spiro MPC?

      Reliable, safe and secure

      The runtime environment used, is in use in thousands of industrial applications across the world. Its reliability is well proven.

      Versatile, light & intuitive

      The Spiro edge device supports open industry standards including IEC 61131-3, OPC UA, Fieldbus, Industrial Ethernet and Modbus. Furthermore, Spiro MPC is supplied with a configuration environment that supports the PLC Open XML file format and is fully compliant to IEC 61131-3, supporting all five programming languages.

      Low maintenance

      Spiro MPC can create, record and learn from data to continuously assess and improve the model of the process, meaning that Spiro MPC adapts to changes in the plant and delivers sustained benefits without a need for significant maintenance.

      Maximum results

      We developed Spiro MPC because manufacturers need better tools for turning data into actions, and better procedures to be able to safely push past operating within their comfort zone to instead operate at the limits of a process.

      Arkema deployed Spiro’s technology as part of our commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement. We achieved sufficient steam savings to decommission a site boiler. The project delivered significant benefits through reduced energy costs and CO2 emissions.
