Lantek: how a CAD/CAM software saves time, metal, and nerves in production

Different machine brands in a single production facility usually mean different software, different interfaces, and different operating logic — along with an extra workload on employees and the risk that if a key employee leaves, a new one will have to be trained from scratch on each system.

Lantek is a universal CAD/CAM system for metalworking that unifies the management of machines from different brands within a single software environment.
If a production facility operates, for example, three brands of equipment, it becomes necessary to maintain three separate programs, spend a long time training employees on each one, and waste time switching between tasks.

With Lantek, this process is simplified to a single universal interface. The system significantly reduces the time needed to prepare a control program: instead of the usual 20-30 minutes of manual work, nesting and part processing are calculated many times faster. Thanks to its well-designed nesting, Lantek saves not only labor but also the metal itself — parts are optimally placed on the sheet, minimizing the amount of waste and offcuts. The solution is suitable for a wide range of processing technologies: punching, laser cutting, plasma cutting, waterjet cutting, tube laser cutting, and combination machines, making Lantek a flexible tool for any metalworking production.
