Braincube + AVEVA

Manufacturers aren’t drowning in data—they’re starving for clarity. In our recent webinar, Unlock More Productivity from Your AVEVA Systems, Braincube’s Kurt Peterson cut straight to the point: your MES, SCADA, and Historian systems were built to collect and control, not optimize. If your team is stuck reacting to yesterday’s problems or spinning their wheels in firefight mode, you’re not alone. But here’s the good news: you don’t need to rip out your existing tech stack to fix it.

Kurt Peterson, Solutions Engineer at Braincube, pulled back the curtain on how manufacturers are stepping into a new productivity era. Most manufacturers have the essentials: SCADA, Historian, and MES. But as Kurt explained, these systems don’t always talk to each other in ways that help you make better business decisions.

That’s where Braincube comes in.

By creating structured models called Product Clones that contextualize data around each actual product, Braincube transforms industrial chaos into clarity. Instead of requiring engineers to sift through siloed systems, it provides the insights they need when they need them.

Why Product Clones Matter

Imagine being able to trace every variable that impacted a product’s quality, from raw materials to final output. With Braincube’s architecture, you can.

Braincube connects to your existing systems—such as MES, SCADA, Historian, and more—and integrates them into a continuous, product-centered thread that spans your entire process. The result? You gain accurate visibility into what is happening on the production line, rather than just what you expect to happen.

Once the data is structured, it’s time to get smart. Literally.

Braincube’s AI-powered analysis helps engineers cut through the noise and pinpoint what’s driving inefficiencies—high scrap, inconsistent quality, or sluggish throughput. Think of it as Six Sigma for the AI era—only faster, sharper, and fueled by your plant’s own data. During the demo, Kurt walked us through a real-world example where one manufacturer used Braincube to challenge a long-standing process assumption. The result? An outdated belief was debunked, and they saw immediate time and cost savings gains.

He also spotlighted a powerful story from Maple Leaf Foods, where Braincube is helping teams automatically adapt to raw material variability. Different inputs? No problem. Operators receive real-time, tailored recommendations to fine-tune their process and stay on target.

The outcome: less waste, better yield, and more confident decisions—right on the floor.

Built to Work with AVEVA

One of the biggest takeaways? Braincube was built to complement, not compete with, your AVEVA systems. If you’re already running AVEVA Historian, MES, or SCADA, Braincube layers on top to maximize the data you already collect. And with a direct integration to AVEVA CONNECT, you’re set up for scalable, AI-powered productivity—no matter your infrastructure.

Most manufacturers are sitting on gold mines of data and have no idea how to use it. Braincube makes it actionable. And as Kurt said best, “This is how we move from reacting to issues to proactively improving the process. From rearview mirror thinking to real-time decision-making.”
