Lantek Factory concept on show at MACH

Companies in the sheet metal and structural steel industries will be able to see how the new Lantek Factory concept, which brings together all of Lantek’s products into one dedicated software solution, can manage every aspect of their businesses in real time, on stand 4620 at MACH.

Lantek, the leader in its industry, offers a suite of software which covers manufacturing, CADCAM and management. The technology starts with the rapid generation of the quotation from accurate pricing sourced from historical data and the analysis of the cutting and fabrication operations, while customer relationship management records sales performance, customer interaction and orders placed.

New orders use the information from the quotation, avoiding duplication of data entry and are scheduled into the factory workload ensuring on time delivery. CNC cutting programs are produced for the mix of parts on order, maximising material utilization and utilizing remnants where appropriate. The Lantek warehouse module takes the bill of materials from the quotation and ensures material and any other parts are ordered, stock controlled and made available for production as they are required, while live reporting on the machine and in the warehouse, feeds back cost information on each job, collates any certification and monitors progress through the workshop.

As each production stage is completed, managers can get a snapshot of cost and can check that there are no delays, which enables them to give accurate feedback to the customer and ensure that profitability targets are being met. Once the job is finished the Lantek software will generate the invoice and delivery documentation and interface to the company’s accounts package to share necessary information.

Lantek Factory enables companies to combine the Lantek products most suited to their needs into one integrated software solution tailored to meet individual requirements. It is the major focus for Lantek in its worldwide markets, and will bring a step change in productivity and profitability to companies within the industry through much greater transparency and efficiency.
