Manufacturing is at a crossroads. There is an enormous amount of pressure to move faster, optimize processes, digitize operations, and increase share. We’re inundated with literature around the need to ‘transform’ and move into Industry 4.0. And the talent-pool has been shrinking for the past decade. It may feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders.
That’s why we’re here! For the past decade, we’ve been empowering manufacturing companies around the world to help them connect, digitize and transform their operations.
Our clients describe Braincube as a cost and risk reduction tool, a continuous improvement program, and THE gold-standard of an Industry 4.0 solution for production.
Our product suite is flexible by design to be used from shop-floor to c-suite. We’ll collaborate with your teams to leverage a global roll out plan, ensuring you get the most value possible from your data. Structured data at your fingertips will empower your teams, optimize your processes, and increase your margins.
Whether you’re looking to get connected, adopt a new IIOT infrastructure, or become an autonomous factory, we have solutions that are flexible and personalized to your needs.

The Braincube Approach
Braincube connects your siloed data (IOT)
We start by connecting all of your data, from any system (historian, MES, LIMS, Scada, etc.), in any format.
We centralize your data so that you have visualization into your processes including devices, people, and things.
Why isn’t IOT enough?
- Data is centralized, but not necessarily in a ready-to-use format
- Your data is not summarized in a way that provides actionable insight
- All data is in one place, but the relationships of variables can be difficult to discern
Braincube augments the tedious and manual process of data cleaning, wrangling and manipulation with its proprietary middleware (Data visualization and management)
Our middleware continuously ingests your raw data, cleanses it, and provides a ready-to-use data set. It automates data manipulation and calculations.
We store an unlimited amount of data in private/public cloud or on-prem.
This eliminates the long and costly time needed to select, extract, transfer and prepare your data.
Is data management enough?
Even cleansed data has little to no context without a human initiating a study, or plugging it into an existing equation for better understanding.
- Data captures ’what happened’ keeping you in a reactive state.
- Data is limited by a time-based association: what likely happened during an approximate period of time (ie production slowed down around 1 p.m. when machine X malfunctioned).
Your inputs and outputs are treated as separate entities and can only be cross-referenced in small quantities
Braincube builds a dynamic model (digital twin), interrelating each of your process parameters. (Product traceability)
We use proprietary AI algorithms, process experts and internal programs to build a digital twin of your process from raw material to final product.
We link your inputs and outputs by applying dynamic time offsets (lag time) based on a model specific to your process.
You have structured, contextualized data that you can use at anytime on any line for any process.
You have the perfect dynamic model! Now what?
- Your raw data is constantly put in its context and is ready to be analyzed.
- You have a fingerprint of all process conditions that went into that product unit by every product/batch/serial number.
- Your need to understand how to improve one input without hurting another
Braincube gives you the power to transform: You maintain autonomy, flexibility, and adaptability. (Digital Transformation)
The only way to truly transform is to address all of your parameters globally at the same time. The Braincube product suite:
- Aggregates all of your data in a centralized environment
