Optimizing Steel Production with Custom Data Apps
Right here in Pittsburgh, CIX, Inc. is the go-to resource for steel companies looking to sharpen their processes and daily operations. They had a wealth of proprietary data, but needed a secure way to turn that raw information into actionable client tools without risking their intellectual property.
They partnered with OpenArc to build two custom applications designed to optimize steel production in real time. Using a modern tech stack—including Electron, Vue.js, PouchDB, and Vuetify—our software development team built a fast, secure desktop experience tailored to heavy industry.
Under the hood, these apps handle complex value-in-use calculations for raw materials and energy sources. Now, CIX gives steel manufacturers a clear, data-driven blueprint to maximize energy efficiency, optimize output, and protect their proprietary formulas.
