New generation of cutters from Lectra

02/07/2012
Textile industry technology provider Lectra has launched a new line of its Vector fabric cutters.

Embedded technology at the heart of the latest version of the system includes 120 sensors that monitor the behavior of the cutting head to optimise cutting in real-time and reduce material consumption. A predictive maintenance system prevents potential failures, while several anti-error devices contribute to simplifying and accelerating the production of each product line. There is also a new ergonomic, intuitive, visual interface that enables continuous monitoring and control of the manufacturing process.

Lectra chief executive, Daniel Harari, said at the time of the launch that the new range of Vector cutters represented “a complete, integrated and unique offer, which enables our customers to benefit from better control and optimisation of their production, which in turn increases their competitiveness and profitability”.
