Lantek Systems Introduces Flex3d Tubes for Flexible Tube Cutting and Design and Reduced Scrap

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Lantek Systems’ Flex3d Tubes is an intuitive software program that allows precise cutting of tubular parts, eliminating scrap and increasing throughput. Available within the Lantek Manager and Integris software, Flex3d Tubes seamlessly integrates with different types of tubular geometry import tools such as SAT and IGES. Additionally, programmers can import 3D design files from SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge or STEP files among others.

Digital Factory, when digitization is synonymous with competitiveness

  • Advanced Manufacturing
The industrial sector is a country’s growth pillar, it’s the competitive advantage of an economy that is able to generate quality employment opportunities that are stable and well recognized both professionally and in terms of salary. However, to sustain these strengths, we need to innovate, renew ourselves and anticipate the progress that is available to society, which unavoidably involves digitization.

‘Progressive Corners Beveling’: The algorithm that revolutionizes the way bevels are cut

  • Digital Transformation
One of the biggest obstacles that the metal industry faces is cutting bevels or chamfers on corners. After months working on how to overcome the loop that is generated, we’ve developed Progressive Corners Beveling (PCB), an algorithm based on dynamic control of the 5 axes, which means that the head is progressively oriented with the angle of the next bevel. That is, it no longer remains perpendicular to the cutting direction, as it does in tangential programming. Thanks to this we save 15 mm to 30 mm of material from each loop. As a result, there is no material waste, so we gain time and therefore, money.
