Lantek to provide software for Promotech pipe cutting machines

Lantek Systems Inc., Mason, Ohio, has reached an agreement with Polish company Promotech to supply its sheet metal software with Promotech’s pipe profile cutting machines. The equipment can cut pipes up to nearly 5 ft. dia. and about 39 ft. long with oxyfuel or plasma.

Promotech manufactures portable welding and cutting tractors, mag drills, plate and portable and fixed pipe bevelers, gantry welding systems, pipe profile cutting machines, and portable CNC cutting and welding machines.

The Flex3d Tubes software will allow users to generate the CNC code necessary to cut complex pipe intersection shapes. With the system, engineers can import CAD geometry, design tubes using a set of standard shapes, or construct them from 2-D outlines and generate them with any type of contour projected through the tube.
