Abstract
This work is concerned with a laboratory ball on plate process developed in the Institute of Control and Computation Engineering, Warsaw University of Technology. Process development, modelling and model simplification are discussed. Although the rudimentary fundamental model of the process is nonlinear, it is shown that very good modelling accuracy is achieved when a simplified linear model is used. Results of laboratory experiments are given to show the effectiveness of the model.
