  • Advanced Manufacturing
Slice. Bend. Weld. Repeat. Each action on the shop floor demands flawless execution. Lantek’s Machine Connectivity technology, paired with our Manufacturing Execution System (MES), is revolutionizing this routine. The secret sauce? Real-time data. MES integrates effortlessly with CAD/CAM systems, bridging the gap between design and production, and ensuring every operation is executed with pinpoint accuracy. This is not just an upgrade; it’s a transformation.

The digitization of your company is now or never

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Not so long ago we were asking ourselves whether the industry was mature enough to deal with digitization processes. It wasn’t long before the market gave us its response, just like in many other areas, those that were ready were few, the majority found themselves in the middle ground waiting for others to get going to see whether the digitization process is as interesting as suggested or whether it failed to meet expectations, and then there was a third group of "deniers", a term that has become popular over the last few weeks and which includes those that systematically tend to apply the same phase for almost everything: "this isn’t for me".

Smart Nesting, when the tool and the engineer go hand in hand

  • Nesting
Material waste and a lack of agility in nesting or the nesting of parts are two of the most common problems faced by metal processing companies which slow down the company’s response time for its clients and make the process more expensive. This is due to them not using the appropriate technology in order to fully exploit each piece of sheet metal during the cutting process and/or the fact that this process is completed manually or using slower solutions. Equally, the work of the production engineer mustn’t be knocked as they are experts in the optimization of nesting and machining; the maximization of the margin for each production order received depends on their intervention.
