Process Control Loop Designer

Process Control Loop Designer MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Design optimal control loops by calculating PID parameters, sizing valves, and selecting sensors.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for designing industrial process control loops. It allows AI agents to analyze process dynamics and determine critical hardware and control parameters. Use calculate_controller_tuning to find optimal PID gains, size_control_valve to determine required valve capacity, select_sensor_hardware to match sensors to process environments, and analyze_loop_stability to assess oscillation risks based on dead time and process lag.

Calculate the PID tuning for a process with a gain of 1.5, time constant of 10, and dead time of 2 using Ziegler-Nichols.

The calculated proportional gain is 6.0, integral gain is 1.2, and derivative gain is 0.75, with a stability margin of 0.85.

What valve size do I need for a flow rate of 50 units, a pressure drop of 15, and fluid density of 1.0?

The required Cv is 25.4, and the recommended valve size is a 2-inch globe valve with an operating range of 40-80%.

Is a loop with a proportional gain of 4.0, time constant of 5, and dead time of 1 stable?

The loop is stable with a stability ratio of 0.8 and a low oscillation risk.

You can use the `calculate_controller_tuning` tool. Provide the process gain, time constant, dead time, and your preferred tuning method like Ziegler-Nichols.
