3D parametric design with full flexibility


Lantek Flex3D Tubes enables the design of any type of tube or profile using an advanced parametric system. Holes, dimensions, angles, thicknesses, and other geometric parameters can be modified in real time without losing previous operations or rebuilding the model.

Realistic and interactive cutting process simulation


The simulation tool reproduces the exact path of the cutting head along the tube. With forward, backward, pause, and restart functions, users can review the process step by step and detect potential collisions before production.

Automatic, semi-automatic, and manual nesting


The system includes nesting algorithms designed to maximize material usage. Different parts can be combined across one or multiple tubes, with customized start and end cuts and precise length management.

Importing 3D geometries with automatic operation recognition

Thanks to Lantek's many 3D importers, any 3D CAD file can be loaded, automatically detecting contours, holes, bevels, and other operations, streamlining the process from design to machining without the need to redraw.

Bevels, grooves, and special cuts

The software supports advanced designs with angled holes, bevels at ends, or custom shapes, facilitating the creation of complex structures.

Configurable multi-axis technology

Supports programming for machines with 3, 4, 5, or more axes. Includes control of rotation, tilt angles, and tube supports.

Interactive visual controls

Users can manipulate the 3D model with zoom, rotation, perspective views, and projections. This facilitates detailed technical review at any stage.

Operation editor with hierarchical tree

Operations can be added, removed, or modified through a structured panel. All changes are reflected immediately in the 3D model.

Inventory and remnant management

Manages tube stock and stores remnants from previous jobs. Remnants can be reused automatically in new production orders, improving material efficiency.

Integration with other Lantek modules

Cutting data can be synchronized with production management, quoting, and business systems. This ensures full traceability from design to machine execution, including integration with MES and ERP environments.
