Stelco and Canvass Analytics partner on AI software for steel operations

Canvass Analytics Inc. a global leader in AI software for intelligent industrial operations, has signed an agreement with Stelco, the owners of North America’s newest and most technologically advanced integrated steelmaking facilities, to use Canvass’s AI platform to transform its steel operations, improve yield and boost productivity.


BI Intelligence predicts that global manufacturers will invest $70 billion on IoT solutions in 2020, up from $29 billion spent in 2015. As IoT adoption in manufacturing accelerates, this leaves steel plants challenged with untapped real-time data being processed across legacy systems, devices and machines. Canvass Analytics leverages AI and Machine Learning to transform previously unconnected data into predictive analytics insights that improve key business metrics.

In many manufacturing processes, decisions are mostly based on institutional knowledge and limited data. Canvass bridges the gap between workforce knowledge and curated IoT inputs to create an Intelligent Operations solution that minimizes energy consumption, increases throughout, reduces downtime and extends the lifetime of a plant’s assets.

Alan Kestenbaum, executive chairman of Stelco Inc commented:

“As a company that strives to deliver the market’s highest quality products in a cost competitive manner, we are continuously looking at how we can operate better. By partnering with Canvass Analytics, we are systematically transforming our facilities into intelligent operations environments and augmenting a digitally oriented workforce in order to take the efficiency of our operations to the next level. Canvass Analytics quickly demonstrated to us the usefulness of AI in certain areas of our operations and the potential of applying AI across our operations in order to increase our profitability and competitiveness.”
