This paper presents a system starting strategy for a multi channel temperature control system. Generally, each channel of MIMO temperature system is almost independent and the settling times and loci are different. In this case, energy loss, quality deterioration and product decrease are caused due to the different heat conduction of each channel. This paper developed a novel system starting method “FOLLOWER control", which can be automatic stating to solve the above product problems. Experiments showed that the proposed control system strategy could be successfully and also be easily applied in practice.
