Machine monitoring, by what you actually run.
Sixteen production settings, one platform. Each page below describes the losses specific to that floor, how they are measured, and what changes once they are visible.
| Setting | Where capacity goes | Measured |
|---|---|---|
| CNC machining | Setup, short stops | Cycles, states |
| Moulding | 2-second cycle drift | Shot-level cycles |
| Furnaces | Heat over empty loads | Batch, temp, kWh |
| Sugar mills | One gearbox, a season | Drive condition |
| Compressed air | Leak load | Specific power |
| Textile mills | Stoppages at scale | Spindle, loom stops |
One platform, one login, one on-premises server. What changes per floor is which signals are read and which KPIs matter.
Every plant loses capacity differently. A moulding shop loses it two seconds at a time; a furnace loses it holding temperature over an empty chamber; a sugar mill loses a season to one gearbox. The pages below describe what MachineWise measures in each setting, written from deployments rather than from a template.
If your process is not listed, it is almost certainly still measurable — the platform is equipment-agnostic, and the constraint is usually access to a signal, not the industry. Tell us what runs on your floor.
Evaluating a monitoring system
Reference material for evaluating a monitoring project: what these systems are made of, what drives the cost, what the return depends on, and how machines that were never designed to be connected still get measured.
Machining and discrete manufacturing
Cycle-level work where the part count is the truth and setup time is the hidden loss.
Process and thermal
Batch-driven plants where temperature, dwell and energy decide both quality and cost.
Polymer, rubber and consumer goods
High-volume repetitive cycles where a two-second drift compounds into weeks of lost capacity.
Utilities and shared equipment
The machines that stop every other machine when they fail, and are metered least.
