Youthful Enterprise, Progressive Leadership, and Swift Business Expansion.
In 2006, LUCK Machinery Co., Ltd. was officially established. This dynamic company primarily focuses on fabricating welded structural parts utilized in construction machinery. Notably, LUCK Machinery has forged enduring partnerships with distinguished construction machinery giants like Doosan, Hyundai, Jessibo, Palfiger, and Komatsu – all of which rank among the top 50 manufacturers worldwide.
The management core at LUCK Machinery is characterized by its youthful vigor and dynamism. Spearheaded by Mr. Wang Han, the General Manager, this team embodies the spirit of the 80s and 90s generations, thus serving as the driving force behind the company’s evolution. A steadfast commitment to aligning with national business management policies and strategic investments in automation equipment and digital software has propelled the company’s sustained progress.
Even amid the challenges posed by the epidemic, LUCK Machinery witnessed remarkable growth, in stark contrast to the underwhelming performances of many contemporaries. Navigating these turbulent times, the company discerned a novel avenue for business expansion. Presently boasting a workforce of over 600 employees, LUCK Machinery commands an impressive annual output totaling approximately 600 million CNY.

Unforeseen Benefits Emanating from Lantek Software Integration.
In the era preceding the adoption of Lantek, LUCK Machinery’s programmers adhered to the manual nesting of components on sheet metal. This approach proved time-intensive, resulted in suboptimal space utilization, and failed to maximize material efficiency. The programmers further grappled with the intricate task of programming across three distinct cutting apparatuses: laser, plasma, and oxy-fuel. This complex endeavor absorbed substantial time and effort. Furthermore, integration hurdles plagued the programming processes of the two machinery types, culminating in diminished overall efficiency.
"Upon embracing Lantek software, we observed a remarkable 5% increase in sheet metal utilization, accompanied by the successful integration of plasma, oxy-fuel, and laser cutting machine programming. The previously disjointed programming efforts within our two facilities are now seamlessly unified through the employment of Lantek Cut Plus software." — Mr. Wang Han, Esteemed General Manager
Since the inception of Lantek Expert Cut Plus, LUCK Machinery has realized heightened material utilization, reinforced product competitiveness, and elevated customer satisfaction levels, all achieved without any modifications to the number of programmers.
A Note Afterthought
In our conversation with Mr. Wang Han, a thought he shared resonated profoundly – the predilection of enterprises to allocate resources toward hardware as opposed to software. The rationale behind this inclination stems from the enigmatic and intangible nature of software. Yet, by looking at LUCK as an exemplar, he discerned a counterpoint: the investment in software holds the potential to yield recuperation within the span of nearly a year. Such an investment has effectively positioned the company on the trajectory of digital metamorphosis. It stands as an astute venture, one that reaps commendable returns.
The essence of an ideal partnership resides in the confluence of triumphs, shared successes. It brings us immense contentment to witness the gradual evolution of our clientele, marked by tangible progress and expanding horizons. At the core of this transformation lies the integration of Lantek software, a force propelling this positive trajectory.

The digital transformation process brings with it a lot of uncertainty. How do I know what tasks and changes I need to carry out in my organization to transform it? It’s impossible to know beforehand. How do I know where I will end up in my transformation process once it is finished? It’s impossible to have a clear idea at the beginning.
