Hybrid computing systems in Industry 4.0

With this new extended "Assembly to Nesting" (A2N) technology, Lantek introduces a tool that enables sheet metal manufacturers to complete tasks in minutes that previously could take hours. The software can process 3D drawings of individual parts and entire assemblies with multiple components, unfolding them and calculating production requirements.

Business Intelligence systems are increasingly part of the daily reality of our business as a tool to make better real-time use of the data we handle so that we can make better decisions, prevent errors, anticipate new needs and develop new business models.

In the age of digitization, a company’s ability to customize their offer is crucial to enable them to become the preferred choice of current and future customers. This is an adaptation which is necessary in every sector, and the metal industry is not exempt: how do you differentiate yourself from the competition? The key is not in the product, nor in the software per se, but in the processes and in the way that the various pieces of software are adapted to them.
