Machine Connectivity: Revolutionizing Real-Time Automation

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Lantek has developed software that operates independently of machine manufacturers, with specialized interfaces that allow it to communicate with any equipment or cutting technology. Lantek’s new “Machine Connectivity” technology takes this flexibility to the next level, advancing toward Industry 4.0. It integrates machines into a comprehensive network, controlling them, collecting their data, and presenting it in a clear and accessible way for users.

10 Key Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Management Software for the Sheet Metal Industry

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Nowadays, practically all organizations have a number of technological plant management solutions that they use to resolve certain issues. Each one delivers, although in response to new needs, multiple tools are being incorporated, creating more complex environments that sometimes complicate plant control.

‘Progressive Corners Beveling’: The algorithm that revolutionizes the way bevels are cut

  • Digital Transformation
One of the biggest obstacles that the metal industry faces is cutting bevels or chamfers on corners. After months working on how to overcome the loop that is generated, we’ve developed Progressive Corners Beveling (PCB), an algorithm based on dynamic control of the 5 axes, which means that the head is progressively oriented with the angle of the next bevel. That is, it no longer remains perpendicular to the cutting direction, as it does in tangential programming. Thanks to this we save 15 mm to 30 mm of material from each loop. As a result, there is no material waste, so we gain time and therefore, money.
