Lantek Flex3d Tubes is a CAD/CAM software system for designing, nesting and cutting parts of tubes and pipes, which plays a value role in Golden Laser Pipe Cutting Machine P2060A.
To meet the needs of industry applications, irregularly shaped pipe cutting has become very common; And Lantek flex3d can support various types of tubes including irregularly shaped pipe. (Standard pipes:Equal diameter pipes such as round, square, OB-type, D-type, triangular, oval etc. Meanwhile, flex3d is equipped with profile cutting function modules to cut angle steel, channel and H-shaped steel, etc.)
Lantek Flex3d Tubes integrates with various kinds of tubular geometry importers such as SAT and IGES. This software allows 3D design to be simple and intuitive. It gives a true vision of the resulting design profile that will eventually be cut on a machine.

Flex3d Main Operation Interface
Include abundant programming operation information such as spare parts list, material list, nesting list, parts preview, nesting picture preview.
FLEX3D Professional Pipe CAD Module
Automatic nesting function can be automatically matched with raw materials which have the same type and same cross-section
Complete the automatic nesting of various pipes at one time.
Supporting conventional nesting and edge-sharing nesting cutting; Supporting oblique angled edge-sharing nesting cutting.
Three-cut Oblique Angled Edge-sharing Nesting Cutting
Three-cut cutting is industry’s unique which aims at oblique angled edge-sharing.
To remove end surface protrusion of oblique angled edge-sharing cutting, thus facilitate welding and reduce follow up manual processing.
Automatic Island Edge-sharing
The system can automatically achieve island edge-sharing in the end surface; To be the first to achieve island one cut in the industry which greatly improved processing efficiency.
Segment Processing
For long holes, in order to avoid cutting holes into the chuck, the contours are taking segment processing.
Cutting Methods
As for different cutting ways for internal diameter and outer diameter, the system will compensate according to pipe thickness to ensure that the pipe can be successfully inserted.
Advanced Pipe Processing Technology
Lantek owns professional pipe processing technologies:
processing order, cutting direction, compensation (system / CNC compensation), hierarchical / automatic layering, introducing and pin out, micro-connections, contour cutting, add / modify / delete cutting vectors, and so on.
Welding Beam Avoiding
The pipe welding position can be set to ensure that the cutting head could avoid welding beam in processing and avoid hole blasting in the welding joints.
Vertical Cutting and Normal Cutting
As for small hole, it takes vertical cutting in which that the pipe does not need to rotate and complete process quickly.
Modify Vector Angle – Inner Corner Avoiding
As for special and abnormal-shaped pipe cutting, in order to avoid the collision between cutting and pipe, the vector can be modified manually.
Comparison Between Advanced 3D and 2D
For same part, it can simultaneously display 3D and 2D data model to facilitate the displaying and editing of multi-surface pipe processing.
4-axis Cutting Settings and Applications
Support 4-axis processing module (adding a swing shaft to the cutting head)
5-axis Cutting Settings and Applications
Supports 5-axis processing modules; Adding swing and rotation axis or double swing to the cutting head
Groove Welding Setting and Application
Groove application for 4-axis and 5-axis machines
Simulation Processing
Simulation processing simulate the detailed single-step / single-profile / full-process to achieve real-time displaying of all axes coordinate information, automatically detect the cutting head collision and give alarming.
