Case Study: Tetra Pak CPS improves sheet metal nesting and plasma cutting efficiency with Lantek Expert and Flex3d

Lantek Helps To Keep Milk And Cheese on The Table

Tetra Pak CPS, part of Tetra Pak, uses Lantek Expert CAD/CAM software to program its Air Liquide Alphatome 20 high-definition plasma cutter and handle sheet metal parts for dairy, beverage, and prepared food processing equipment. The main challenge is efficiently preparing large, bespoke stainless steel vats and related components, while optimizing material use and managing complex flat-pattern data from the drawing office.

Lantek helped Tetra Pak CPS refine DXF data, unfold parts with Lantek Flex3d, and nest components more effectively, including cutting up larger waste areas for easier removal. The result is a flexible and easy-to-use programming workflow that supports production efficiency, with responsive Lantek support adding value through quick remote assistance and problem prevention guidance.
