Why automation solved yesterday's problem but not this one, how Orion, NEO, and B3rry turn raw data into decisive action, and five use cases pulled straight from casting, rolling, and yield.

  • 01 The Challenge — why more sensors and automation haven't solved throughput variability.
  • 02 The Approach — how Orion, NEO, and B3rry move data into decisive action.
  • 03 The Use Cases — five scenarios, from casting stability to bottleneck intelligence.
Inside The Whitepaper

Three sections. One operating model.

Steel facilities generate more operational data than ever — blast furnaces, EAFs, continuous casters, rolling mills, MES, historians. The challenge isn't collecting it. It's turning it into decisions while production is happening.

01 — Challenge

Automation solved yesterday's problem. It didn't solve this one

A mill can have thousands of sensors generating millions of data points daily and still struggle to answer why throughput dropped last shift, or which bottleneck is actually limiting production.

02 — Approach

From raw data to decisive action. Three connected layers

Orion connects casting, quality, historian, and maintenance data into a single operational view. NEO makes performance visible in real time. B3rry surfaces recurring patterns and recommends what to do next.

03 — Use Cases

Five scenarios across the steel value chain

From continuous casting stability and rolling mill throughput to yield improvement, operational knowledge capture, and bottleneck intelligence — where operational intelligence creates the most value.

Next Step

Steel producers already have data.

B3 helps turn that data into coordinated decision-making — line by line, shift by shift.
