Abstract: This paper presents a Internal Model Control(IMC) tuned PID controller method for the DC motor for robust operation.IMC is a process model approach to design the PID controller parameter to obtain the optimal setpoint tracking and load disturbance rejection.This method of control which is based on the accurate model of the process,leads to the design of a control system that is stable and robust.The results of the IMC tuning method when compared with the Ziegler Nichols (ZN) closed loop tuning provides a commendable improvement in the overshoot,rise time and settling time of the system.Simulated results in LabVIEW and Matlab using the PID and IMC are presented and also the same has been implemented and tested for a 12volt DC motor.
