After a Disappointing Digital Rollout: Four Things Steel Mills Do Differently Next Time
Proven digital transformation in steelmaking isn’t about hype — it’s about how you deploy. In this article, we analyze why around 70% of digital projects underperform and detail how mills that rebound do so by redefining their approach: precise problem definition, minimal scope, workflow-aligned integration, and rigorous tech evaluation. If a past deployment failed at your mill, learn the practical criteria and steps other operations used to turn the next one into a success.
When Caster Breakouts Break the P&L: Ending Sequential Troubleshooting in the Melt Shop
When a caster breakout occurs, the real damage isn’t just scrap—it’s lost throughput, diverted experts, and slow diagnosis. Discover how AI can replace biased, step-by-step root cause hunts with holistic, high-confidence diagnosis for continuous casting.
Linear vs. Non-Linear Regression in Steel: Why In-House Linear Models Leave Money on the Table (How Fero Labs Closes the Gap)
Discover why legacy linear models underperform in steelmaking—and how Fero Labs’ explainable, non-linear AI analyzes 3+ years of data in seconds to boost yield, reduce cost, and optimize operations.
Diagnose Root Causes of Continuous Caster Breakouts in Minutes
Learn how to diagnose root causes of continuous caster breakouts in minutes with Fero Labs' AI solution. Traditional methods like Six Sigma take months and extensive manual analysis across disparate data systems. Our machine learning platform identifies complex patterns across hundreds of variables in real-time, reducing breakout incidents by 30-50% and unplanned downtime by 15-20%. Essential reading for metallurgists and process engineers seeking faster, more accurate solutions to costly steel production disruptions.
