A National Leader in Process Control Tuning!
What our customers are saying about CTD!
Recently our company hired Ronald Wensley of Controller Tuning & Design as a control specialist to implement the parallel operation of two valves for a Fuel Gas compression application.
As an Electrical & Control start up engineer I have had a chance to worked with a few specialist who have their training in their product line only such as Siemens, Allen-Bradle, GE, and others.
I am confident to say that I found Mr. Wensley a complete control specialist who has in depth knowledge about process in terms of mathematical models. I have never seen anyone, who in the field, to understand the process in mathematical models first and then tune the process according to these mathematical models.
At the end of this project we implemented the parallel valve operation successfully with complete customer satisfaction.
I would like to recommend Controller Tuning & Design's services to all industry people who are looking for a company that has an in depth knowledge of control and tuning parameters with confidence.

Our plant was experiencing an unloading of the steam turbine whenever we
performed a cold start of the plant. We called Controller Tuning & Design
because of their reputation and asked them to investigate the cause of
this problem. Using a systematic approach, CTD worked through each layer
of the problem until the root cause was discovered. They then provided us
with a solution to our problem that works extremely well and has
completely eliminated the original issue. We now use CTD to tune all of
our boiler controls and help with all our control issues.
I can highly recommend CTD to tune your boiler and solve your most
difficult control system problems.
