Lantek integrates the most advanced

the highest standards in manufacturing
management solutions.
Lantek’s Factory concept is achieved
through the integration of Lantek
Workshop and Lantek Integra products
with the Lantek Expert and Lantek
Flex3d CAD/CAM products which
handle CAD data, unfold parts, create
nests and generate CNC code for the
cutting process.
Starting with a customer enquiry,
CRM software makes available the
complete history of a customer’s
orders. Quotation software then
makes it very quick and easy to
generate an accurate cost to include
material, and all the manufacturing
operations such as cutting, bending,
painting and assembly. At the same
time the production schedule can
be interrogated to make sure that
Once the order is

dates, manufacturing
stages and material

material is available and that there is
sufficient production capacity to deliver
parts on time.
Once the order is placed, delivery
dates, manufacturing stages and
material requirements are all specified
and scheduled. These are then
synchronised with the other work going
through the factory, enabling engineers
to create dynamic nests of parts for
each material type where appropriate,
manage remnant material and prepare
parts for cutting while keeping to the
delivery dates.
For coordinated manufacture, material
is delivered to the machine on time
and the operator has setup information
available where this is necessary.
As production progresses, feedback
can be recorded through shop floor
terminals, giving real time information
on the status of manufacture for
managers.
At every stage priorities can be
