Lantek presents the latest developments to modernize the metal industry at MACH-TOOL 2019

MACH-TOOL is considered the most important meeting dedicated to machine tools and the industry in Central and Western Europe, and not for naught. It is a sector that represents 26.3% of the economy of Poland, a country that, according to Eurostat, is highly industrialized and holds advanced positions among the largest economies in the world in this environment. It is the seventh in the EU.

With the slogan, “Towards Industry 4.0”, MACH-TOOL expects more than 17,000 attendees who will have the opportunity to talk about a comprehensive vision of the new ideas and trends that are defining the trajectory of an industrial sector immerse in the profound digital transformation set by the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

“Dynamism and the latest technological developments applied to the industry are provoking major changes in a sector that is the driver of many economies”, explained Damian Olszowski, sales director of Lantek Poland. “Modernizing, automating, and optimizing processes at companies in the metal and sheet metal sector contributes to driving the transformation of enterprises that must take on the challenges entailed by Industry 4.0 in order to reap the benefits that this revolution has to offer in terms of competitiveness, productivity, and savings. To demonstrate this, there is nothing better than an event like MACH-TOOL, the meeting ground par excellence for exchanging technological experiences with the leaders of the innovation sector and a great opportunity to get close to our customers and partners in the sector in this region”.

Lantek, which will be at stand C31 in Hall 5, will present the fair’s visitors with the latest improvements incorporated into its software solutions to make production centres more competitive, efficient, and expeditious. The new aspects include:

• Lantek MES: the family of software products designed for companies that are looking for a complete and competitive solution for managing, planning, and optimizing their manufacturing processes, with real-time control of all the different activities occurring within the production plant. This line of solutions now boasts around 20 improvements that will allow production to be streamlined in several directions, causing the plant to operate with maximum efficiency with regard to processes, deadlines, and costs, and with better use of raw materials. Thanks to the latest developments, Lantek MES has become the most advanced software in the sheet metal market, facilitating advanced and smart manufacturing management. 
• Lantek Integra: product that comprises a set of functional models that fully cover companies’ current and future management needs in each of their areas, from the initial process of customer capture to the end support service. With Lantek Integra, the metal industry now has a specific software that is fully adapted to its needs and able to satisfy the growing demand for solutions that allow products and services to be personalized. Another feature of the product is that it has mechanisms to integrate with other ERPs, opening up an infinite number of possible services that add value for the industry.
• Lantek Analytics: is the family of products that uses proprietary business intelligence technology to allow a user to reliably access the relevant information on the company’s production process in real time: from the output of each machine to the efficiency of a line or plant, to detailed analysis of a company’s customers and channels, anticipating manufacturing orders and facilitating smart quoting. All of this is done so that the user can properly respond to and manage the vast amount of data generated in the factory as a result of the connection and automation of processes and operations in order to have the information and data handy for improved decision-making.

These advancements are generating levels of production flexibility and agility that were previously unthinkable. “Unavailability of solutions that allow metal companies to be more competitive and profitable is no longer an excuse, as our product is designed to remove the complexities of automating and connecting production processes, making these tasks easy, intuitive, and smart while allowing full scalability and integration with the other solutions on the market”, concluded the sales director of Lantek Poland.
