Keep your tooling performing at its best with Leitz professional sharpening, regrinding and repair services. From carbide router cutters and sawblades to advanced diamond tooling, our service centres across Australia and New Zealand help manufacturers reduce costs, extend tool life and maximise productivity.

Rising carbide costs are changing the game. Discover a smarter way to manage tooling with longer tool life, regrinding strategies and high-performance CNC solutions.

As global supply chains face increasing pressure, Australian manufacturers are rediscovering the value of local production. Discover why Australian-made CNC tooling and compression router cutters are helping cabinetmakers and manufacturers improve reliability, productivity and supply chain resilience.

Weathertex produces some of Australia’s most sustainable timber cladding, but machining their durable hardwood material requires tooling that can keep up. Discover how a customised Leitz HeliCut planer head dramatically increased knife life, reduced downtime and improved production efficiency at their NSW manufacturing facility.

Panel cutting without scoring – possible, but prone to errors. If the coating chips, rework can be time-consuming. The carpentry shop Moser approached the tool manufacturer Leitz with this issue. The result: a saw blade with an integrated scoring unit – just in time for Leitz’s 150th anniversary.

In its anniversary year, Leitz is sending a clear signal: with the FineCut, the global market leader is presenting not just a new circular saw blade, but a fundamental technological leap in panel cutting. What had been considered an indispensable standard for decades is now replaced by a solution that is structurally integrated directly into the main sawblade. FineCut eliminates scoring – and redefines process logic. The diamond-tipped high-performance tool symbolizes 150 years of innovation. Its message is as clear as it is consistent: perfect bottom edges without a scoring sawblade.

Cheap router cutters may seem like a cost-saving option, but they often lead to shorter tool life, poor edge quality and costly machine downtime. Discover why investing in high-quality CNC tooling and compression router cutters can dramatically improve productivity and profitability in cabinetmaking and panel processing.
