PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE Lantek Flex3D SteelWork is a new module in the Lantek Flex3D product family, specifically designed for the design and machining of standard profiles. It is a stand-alone product that does not require any additional Lantek software. With over 20 years of experience in the sheet metal market, Lantek has created a powerful offline design and programming system for profile cutting machines, supporting both sawing and drilling operations. Easy and Flexible Design Lantek Flex3D SteelWork allows for 3D design in an intuitive and simple way, offering a real-time preview of the results when drilling and sawing the profile on the machine. The system is highly flexible, enabling the creation of any type of standard profile. It is a parametric system that allows users to modify any previous operation, including changing the initial parameters of each profile (e.g., enlarging, shortening, etc.). Once the design is complete, users can simulate the machine’s head movement in 3D, displaying each machining operation along the profile or tube (profiling, drilling, sawing). The software also allows for the generation of NC files, which can be sent directly to the machine. Lantek Flex3D SteelWork is adaptable to work with any profile or tube machine. Technical Characteristics Lantek Flex3D SteelWork simulates the exact profile and 3D process for each operation, minimizing the possibility of errors. The software enables users to create standard sections, eliminating the need to duplicate entry information when creating profiles. Users only need to select a standard base section, then input the length and material. The system is built on database technology, providing complete management of various profile products and remnants, ensuring quick access and efficient data handling. Cutting Profiles Simulation Lantek Flex3D SteelWork allows users to simulate each profile operation, including drilling, cutting, and the work zone. The software automatically generates the NC file for each machine based on the machined contours of each profile. Lantek Flex3D SteelWork can detect potential collisions and provides the user with tools to manually modify them. The system will automatically avoid collisions where possible, and if any occur, they will be highlighted during the simulation phase. Users can zoom, move, rotate, and adjust the axis positioning of the profile during the simulation view for better inspection. Additionally, operators can create drawings in Tekla and transfer them to Lantek Flex3D SteelWork for further processing. OPTIONAL ITEMS: Lantek Flex 3D SteelWork SD Plus Module SAT Importer CAM importer 1 set of starter tool set Scribe/marking tool 3,000 rpm Scribe/marking tool with Air 20,000 rpm Light Curtains AUTOMATIC TOOL AND MATERIAL MEASUREMENT (Optional) The machine features independent measurement systems that automatically measure the material’s length, width, and height. The operator inputs the material type and dimensions into the program, and the software determines how many points the material height measurement will be performed. Flanges and web heights are measured automatically with a measurement probe. When the beam is clamped horizontally, the width of the beam is measured automatically using a measurement probe. Material length is measured using a laser sensor at the exit of the machine. The software stores these dimensions to calculate the required real dimensions, ensuring more accurate results when starting the process. Additionally, the tool length can be measured automatically by a laser sensor when a new tool is placed in the tool changer. By automatically measuring material dimensions and drill length, the system saves time and enhances operational safety. SCRIBING MARKING TOOL (Optional) The machine is equipped with a scribing tool for marking on 4 surfaces of beams. The markings are of high quality and remain readable even after processes like painting or blasting. For more details, please feel free to ask. LIGHT CURTAINS (Optional) Light curtains are provided upon request to detect approaches in a dangerous area. When a light curtain is crossed, all systems of the relevant area will be shut down immediately. DSTV, SAT and CAM File Importing (Optional) Lantek Flex3D SteelWork can import data generated by third-party CAD systems used for designing structures, such as DSTV, SAT, and CAM files. DSTV file importing is a standard feature for all Lantek packages. Importing SAT and CAM files is available as an optional feature. The software allows users to import various file formats, including machining operations, and modify them for production. Once imported, the files are converted into Lantek Flex3D’s native format, enabling easy and intuitive modifications. Users can also modify, add, or delete any machining operations required for the profile. Lantek Flex3D SteelWork can interpret the various properties of each file, such as material thickness, material type, and quantity, as long as these attributes are supported by the imported format.

Because it's a high-quality product, meticulous attention to detail is required during the manufacturing process.
