Lantek, a global leader in sheet metal software solutions, will unveil the latest v44 version of its software at Global Industrie Lyon 2025, one of Europe’s premier manufacturing industry events. From March 11 to 14, attendees will have the opportunity to explore the company’s latest innovations at stand 6G31.
The new Lantek v44 release introduces key enhancements in connectivity, automation, and data management, providing sheet metal manufacturers with advanced tools to optimize production. With a strong focus on operational efficiency and seamless process integration, this update enables businesses to reduce production times, improve decision-making, and enhance overall competitiveness.
“Global Industrie Lyon is the perfect stage to showcase how Lantek v44 is driving digital transformation in the sheet metal sector,” says Richard Karam, Commercial Director of Lantek France. “With enhanced connectivity features and real-time data analysis, we empower our customers to improve efficiency and gain greater control over their operations.”
Real-time connectivity for smart factories
One of the most significant advancements in Lantek v44 is its ability to seamlessly connect shop floor machines with MES and ERP systems in real time, ensuring smooth integration between production and management processes. Through the WOS Live module, machine signals are automatically validated, reducing manual interventions and improving data accuracy.
Additionally, the cloud-based Control Panel allows managers to monitor machine status, diagnose maintenance issues, and optimize performance. This connectivity between CAD/CAM, MES, and cutting equipment enhances overall efficiency and enables real-time, data-driven decision-making.
Advanced 3D import capabilities
Another major enhancement in Lantek v44 is the Assembly to Nesting (A2N) module, which simplifies the direct import of 3D CAD models into the nesting process. The system automatically recognizes the assembly structure—whether sheet metal, tubes, or profiles—offering real-time 3D and 2D visualization. It also identifies standard bevels and automatically assigns the appropriate cutting technology, streamlining the manufacturing workflow.
With seamless integration into over 4,500 cutting machine models, Lantek v44 reinforces the company’s commitment to driving digitalization in the metal industry. With more than 36,000 customers across 100 countries, Lantek continues to lead the sector with cutting-edge technology.
