Lantek v45:
Empower your work
AI, automation, and integration for faster, safer sheet metal manufacturing.
One platform. More capability.
Every product in the suite moves forward with v45. More automation, greater precision, and closer integration across CAD/CAM, MES, ERP, nesting, and shop floor processes.
Flexible programming. Better machining.
Smoother part evacuation.

More automation for a continuous cutting flow with fewer bottlenecks.
Improves part programming, storage, and evacuation to reduce setup times and keep production moving.
- New advanced part evacuation control adds multilift systems and flexible suction cup layouts with real-time preview. This speeds up sheet programming for automatic evacuation.
- It automatically selects the most suitable machining strategy based on the nesting angle, avoiding turret incompatibilities and choosing the best extraction method.
- Standard and 3D bevel cutting on the same part allows classic bevels such as V, X, Y, and K to be combined with 3D bevel cutting in a single design.
- COMING SOON: StackMaster 3D for interactive palletizing will make it easier to plan, visualize, and control storage, simplify unloading, and coordinate the full manufacturing flow.
- More than 30 new additional features.
Faster nesting. Greater control. Less waste.

Better performance in nesting and tubular production with less material loss.
Designed for more flexible tube and structural steel manufacturing, with better performance and a more consistent production flow.
- The new nesting algorithm reduces material waste and nesting time, especially in complex jobs with a high volume of parts.
- The StruMIS connector links Tekla's MRP environment with Flex3D, synchronizing production requirements and profile inventory. It also returns actual material consumption and generated scrap, creating a consistent flow of information between systems.
- Expanded programming features include rust removal before cutting, filler piece management in nesting jobs, and head collision simulation when programming custom strategies with the TSD module. This improves production safety and process consistency.
- Revamped SolidWorks add-in for higher performance and a better experience in part unfolding, as well as tube joint design, accelerating the transfer from design to production.
Precision. Interoperability. Ease of use.

More precise and connected bending for real production.
Bending is now more accurate, more consistent, and easier to manage.
- Custom bending deduction based on FEM calculates exact target results for each machine using specific material and tooling data. It also allows flat pattern calculations to be adjusted based on real shop floor experience.
- Complete integration with Expert, Manager, and Integra keeps geometry and process data synchronized, reduces manual work, and supports digital traceability.
- A new interface delivers a unified user experience and helps users work faster from the start.
- A broader catalog of post-processors increases compatibility with new controllers and press brakes, giving manufacturers more freedom when selecting equipment.
More visibility. Better planning. More control.

Real-time shop floor control and production planning.
Track what is happening on the shop floor as it happens.
- Better inventory control in intermediate warehouses gives real-time visibility of WIP and semi-finished inventory, so operators always know where each part is.
- MES Manager is now available as a web application. No local installation is required.
- A new production planning module provides more reliable delivery forecasts, showing estimated durations, bottlenecks, and delay risks through a clear Gantt chart to support workshop planning.
Traceability. Accuracy.
Confidence.

Cost control and full traceability from quote to delivery.
Quote, plan, and manage with full visibility.
- Better material cost management keeps prices updated and brings each quote closer to real market conditions.
- Nesting-based quoting is more accurate, with automatic selection of the most suitable format and a fairer distribution of scrap costs.
- Expanded API capabilities speed up integration with external MES and ERP systems, connecting data and processes for end-to-end traceability.
