JJ Snickeri AB – changes in five minutes instead of an hour with WoodLAB

About JJ Snickeri

JJ Snickeri AB in Hjo is a modern specialty woodworking shop with extensive experience in custom interiors, furniture, and tailor-made wood solutions. The company is run by Johan Johansson, who took over Träförädling i Hjo HB—a fact reflected in the name change. A combination of skilled craftsmanship and advanced technical equipment results in high-precision products at competitive prices.

The Challenge

Like many woodworking shops, JJ Snickeri wanted to reduce lead times and increase precision in the design of cabinets, furniture, and custom interiors. Previous CAD solutions required extensive manual work; every change took a long time; and CAM files had to be updated separately, which carried a risk of errors. The goal was a 3D solution that combines design, visualization, and CAM integration.

Why WoodLAB and IRONCAD

After evaluating the market, JJ Snickeri chose WoodLAB in combination with IRONCAD. Cabinets, furniture, and interiors are designed in a parametric 3D environment where all changes are automatically updated in the associated CAM files, eliminating the need for time-consuming 2D DXF file management. Components are reused from libraries, so existing solutions can be modified in minutes rather than hours.

This Is How JJ Snickeri Works Today

• Cabinets, doors, and custom interiors are built using components imported into the 3D environment
• Design concepts are presented to the customer in 3D, which saves time and increases customer satisfaction
• Every change is automatically updated in the CAM system, and production can begin immediately
• New ideas are tested without disrupting ongoing production

The result

Faster turnaround times from design to production, fewer errors in manufacturing files, more efficient use of machinery, and higher precision in the final product. Changes that used to take an hour now take five minutes.

There’s no more productive solution for designing cabinets and furniture in 3D! WoodLAB has proven to save us a lot of time, and modifications that used to take an hour now take just five minutes. At the same time, CAM files are updated automatically.
