You can approximately know how much you need to pay for it with oxygen cut or others. All functions are together. I mean, all functions of Lantek Expert merged in one program. These functions like laser cutting, checking stock, calculating costs, designing a part and opening etc. Also it has a very large library. ( About library I just talked with my customer ) **What do you dislike about Lantek Expert?** Interface seems a little bit old fashioned. I think it could be more technological. But it's simple. I can't deny. Also they can upgrade the animation part. Maybe it will slows the computer but in this technology era, it should not be a problem for us. **Recommendations to others considering Lantek Expert:** You can add pieces and see before put on your platform. In the menu you can find what you want to do with a small example ( with picture on it ). There are tons of shortcut you gonna see below the button ( actually it's in the button ) With these shortcuts the using that program much easily. So far it's all I can say. You can use as an user and with a team too. All of your data will be hidden. The program has a real time estimating cost, it includes blasting, cutting, the cost of material, how much time it spends of work etc. **What problems is Lantek Expert solving and how is that benefiting you?** I designed a computer cooling with 2 x 12V fans with an adaptor and I have it with laser cut. It's just a small project for my customer. ### 5.
