Premium Turkish laser manufacturer Nukon is one of Lantek’s OEM collaborative partners, combining the 2D/3D technology of the former with the expertise that the latter brings with its Lantek Expert software for programming 2D lasers and Flex3D software for tube cutting lasers. Nukon Lasers UK, the company’s UK and Ireland distributor has been working with Lantek’s UK office for two years, already collaborating in the installation of multiple machines.

Steve Haddrell, sales director at Nukon Lasers UK, says: “By partnering with Lantek our customers are productive within days of the machine installation. It also provides us with confidence in the success of every project we undertake.”

According to Haddrell, 2D laser technology is very mature and the quality of the Lantek software is a factor in differentiating Nukon from its competitors: “Lantek has all the essentials, including heat dissipation, job estimates, film burning for plastic-coated sheet, common line cutting and powerful nesting, ensuring optimum yield from the sheet material.”

Laser cutters from Nukon feature US-made, high-quality nLIGHT resonators with CutLine adaptive beam control ‘on the fly’ during cutting. One of the benefits of the CutLine system is a much smoother finish on thicker materials via the tuneable beam profile. Nukon machines also feature Beckhoff controls and drives, piercing and cut sensors, automatic nozzle changers, as well as multiple options for load/unload automation.

“Lantek Expert and Flex3D products are head and shoulders above others in the market,” concludes Haddrell. “Lantek software is fully featured and the quality of the support staff and their depth of knowledge gives us complete confidence.”
