  • System and method for setting machine limits
    Patent number: 8380462
    Abstract: A system and method for setting machine limits include setting a limit for a machine parameter, setting a temporal operating range for the machine, and setting a temporal step. The machine is operated over the operating range and the machine parameter is measured. A first new limit for the machine parameter is set based at least in part on the measurements over the operating range. The operating range is advanced by the temporal step, and the machine parameter continues to be measured. Another new limit for the machine parameter is set based at least in part on the measurements over the operating range after the operating range has been advanced.
