Furniture and woodworking

Nisthora for furniture and woodworking.

Panel saws, CNC routers, edge banders and presses all run countable work. Nisthora shows how each one is used, where the time goes, and which jobs cause the most stops.

The challenge

What gets in the way.

Mixed jobs

Many sizes and finishes mean frequent changeovers.

Dust and wear

Blades, belts and extraction systems wear quickly and stop machines.

Hidden waiting

Machines wait for panels, glue or people more than anyone expects.

On your shop floor

What Nisthora connects to and measures.

Machines

  • Panel saws and beam saws
  • CNC routers and nesting machines
  • Edge banders
  • Presses and laminators
  • Sanders
  • Drilling and boring machines

Readings

  • Cycle or panel count
  • Run / stop signal
  • Rejected pieces
  • Spindle load
  • Extraction status
  • Energy use

Typical stop reasons

  • Job changeover
  • Blade or tool change
  • No panels
  • Glue or edge-band change
  • Dust extraction fault
  • Waiting for operator

These are common examples. Each plant names its own machines and lines, and sets up its own stop reasons, in the words its team uses.

Traceability

None needed

No rule requires lot tracing in furniture. Nisthora still records each run behind the scenes, so you can look back when you need to.

A day with Nisthora

A furniture plant compares shifts on Shift Performance. The night shift's edge bander shows long Glue change stops. A written changeover method, found with five whys, shortens them.

Example for illustration.

How Nisthora helps

Built for plants like yours.

Live OEE per machine

Availability, performance and quality for every machine, live.

Tap-only machine panel

Operators press Start and Stop, and tap a picture for the stop reason.

Downtime Pareto

The few stop reasons that cost the most, sorted for you.

Maintenance forecast

Which machine needs maintenance in the next 30 days, and why.

Anomaly detection

Flags readings that look unusual for that machine.

Alerts

Limits on any reading, sent in-app, by email, SMS, push or webhook.

Root cause and fishbone

Find why a problem keeps coming back, and prove the fix.

Works with your PLCs

OPC UA, Modbus, Siemens S7, EtherNet/IP, MQTT and HTTP.
