TAPPI 99 Trade Show was a SUCCESS!

The booth at the TAPPI 99: Preparing for the Next Millennium joint PCE&I and Paper Makers Conference during the week of March 1 to 5 was a smashing success.  We had many interested people stop by and inquire about our services and technology.  The interactive demonstration of fuzzy logic control running on a PC with a HMI communicating to FieldBus instrumentation was the center of our booth.   The control demonstration compared the differences between regular PID and fuzzy logic control.   Stay tuned for future booth exhibits.

TAPPI 99 Joint Conference Papers

Dan Parker, PMA and co-author Steve Pittman, Potlatch Corporation, presented a paper titled Moving Paper Machine CD Profiling into the Mill Control System.   The paper was presented on Tuesday, March 2, 1999 in Session 37. 

Kevin Stively, PMA, presented a paper titled Which Control Option Do I Go with?  DCS, Mini-DCS or PLC?  The paper was presented on Tuesday, March 2, 1999 in Session 39.  This paper looks at the cost comparison, benefits, limitations and training issues between the three system types. 

You can view these papers and other publications by PMA in the Publications section of our Website.

PMA Launches Their Website

Parker, Messana & Associates debuted this Website on January 14, 1999.  Using a new high speed technology from USWest (regional telephone company) called Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL), we have connected ourselves to the internet full time.   This ADSL connection supports speeds up to 1 Mbps allowing PMA to host their own Website saving hundreds of dollars a month.
