Lantek’s New Innovations at BIEMH: Machine Connectivity and Assembly to Nesting
Among the technological advancements Lantek will present at the fair is the integration of Machine Connectivity technology into its software, enabling real-time data reception from cutting machines, regardless of model or manufacturer.
This new technology allows the introduction of two new products at BIEMH 2024. The first, Live WOS, leverages real-time data to precisely control times, thereby improving production scheduling and job costing efficiency.
Additionally, the new Control Panel will be showcased, providing a real-time overview of the workshop, allowing manufacturing managers a comprehensive system for visualizing what is always happening with each machine or line and from any device.
Lantek will also present the innovative Assembly to Nesting (A2N) functionality, designed to address the growing demand for more efficient handling of 3D files by its clients. A2N is an advanced importer of 3D parts and assemblies known for its ability to automatically unfold sheet metal parts. Its benefits are significant: rapid processing of 3D models, elimination of the need for external 3D CAD tools, and total accuracy in part unfolding thanks to user-defined rules.
In addition, Lantek will showcase new functionalities of the Lantek MES and Lantek Integra products with Lantek Flex3D. With all these innovations, included in the latest update, Lantek advances in its maturity stage towards the most flexible tube and profile cutting solution, improving usability, automation capabilities, and integration with the company’s factory management solutions.
