We offer CAD/CAM-, MES and ERP solutions for all kinds of requirements in the manufacture of metal furniture and home appliances. Solutions that through Industry 4.0 go a step further and make the jump to advanced manufacturing through the application of data analytics, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and the Internet of Things, all supported in a cloud environment, through Lantek MES+, Lantek Analytics and the Cloud Lantek 360 platform.
Let’s get into detail about what Lantek technology can offer this sector that connects so closely to the end customer to accelerate the production process and make it more efficient and competitive with increasingly restricted cost and time requirements:
Lantek MES Wos. This program validates data automatically and in real time, which speeds up processes, eliminates possible manual errors, optimizes production and controls consumption. It can control the entire production process using a system updated from the workshop using data provided in real time. It is designed to meet the needs of companies that work with sheet metal. This software can be installed on one computer and through intuitive screens it not only offers the user options for selecting different machine tools and production facilities but also allows users to communicate remotely.
Lantek MES Manager. Companies that design, manufacture and sell neutral and hot items for the hotel and food sectors benefit from the automatic process management system, in which manufacturing is controlled from start to finish. All in real time. In this way, it is possible, for example, to optimize the workload of a machine, reallocating and modifying orders, reserving materials for a specific part or prioritizing certain tasks, thereby reducing product delivery times. At the same time, the user can track the status of the parts in real time according to different criteria such as the machine, phase, material, thickness, delivery date, etc.
Lantek MES Manager. Its main features are the ability to visualize the whole workshop and intelligent planning. This software enables users to have precise, real time information on the status of the machines (availability, maintenance, load state), and of the warehouse’s capacity to satisfy the material needs for the orders, view their progress and know what manufacturing stage they are at (cutting, bending, painting, assembly, etc.) and the delivery deadlines. All of this data when viewed together offers solutions for any eventuality.
Lantek Expert Punch. This software is specially designed to automate the CNC programming of punching machines, which makes it possible to produce modern furniture at competitive prices with perfect finishes and without sacrificing its design. And all this with an advanced, intuitive and easy-to-use interface. This program not only manages tools for stamping, drilling, tapping, marking or sheaving, but also has automatic and manual nesting options.
Lantek Expert Cut. This is Lantek’s tool par excellence for programming sheet metal cutting machines by oxycut, plasma, laser or water jet. The user can design or import a part, check stock, execute cutting sequences, generate CNC programs and calculate times and costs. The tool is able to automate the programming of machines, which is an effective software for preventing unwanted behavior during actual operation.
Lantek Flex3d Steelwork. This is a module developed for the design and machining of standard profiles (I, U, L, H, T) and also round and square tubes. It allows users to start from a base profile and add different faces until the part’s design is complete. From a technical point of view, this software is designed to program the cutting of any standard profile format. With its powerful simulator, it is possible to observe the movement of the machine, the profile displacement, and the machining operations performed by each tool in 3D and in great detail, enabling a greater optimization of the part and minimizing the probability of error.
Lantek 360. Using four applications, users can securely store their data in the cloud and facilitate the interconnection of machines and production processes with their management, speeding up manufacturing and providing cost and time savings. At the same time, the cloud environment enables the application of data analytics solutions to set predictive patterns, facilitating decision making quickly and accurately.
All these competitive advantages allow home appliance manufacturers to improve their positioning in terms of quality and safety in these times of digital transformation which is forcing everyone to adapt quickly and to constantly innovate.
