In furniture production, perfect machining results and the highest possible feed rates are required for sizing individual panels. This applies to the production of small batches as well as to batch size 1 production. For both process specifications, the required quality and the time factor are decisive. Especially with changing support materials and coatings. Here, time-consuming reworking, excessive tool wear and the associated loss of time turn every production into an economic challenge.

Compact laminates such as HPL, hard paper or hard fabric find a wide range of applications due to their design possibilities and robust properties. This material is especially popular in furniture, kitchen and trade fair construction, in façade construction but also in the sanitary sector. HPL is particularly in great demand where robust properties and the highest standards have to be met. However, the tool stress during the machining of compact laminates is high because the surface coating has a corresponding hardness.

for lasting guarantee of flexible and productive CNC machining with shank tools.
High quality on the workpiece can only be guaranteed with high-quality tool clamping technology.

Tools like new – this is the philosophy of maximum tool life and perfect machining quality throughout the entire life cycle of Leitz products.

“Germany’s best companies for careers” – this was the title of an independent survey on career opportunities in German family businesses. The Leitz Group from Oberkochen was ranked 17th out of 500 companies.

Continuous working on optimal tool concepts – this user report about the Hunger Möbelproduktions GmbH from the magazine "möbelfertigung" (issue 4/2021) shows how Leitz acts as an important partner here.

This user report about the company Ballerina Küchen from the magazine "dds" (issue 07/2021) shows how the specially developed triple tool from Leitz represents a high time saving.

When sizing panel material, tools are usually used that are loud and heavy due to their structural design. The result is stress for man and machine. More than ten years ago, Leitz developed the pioneering tool solution for this problem that still sets the standard in terms of sustainability, efficiency and quality in edgebanding: the lightweight and quiet Diamaster WhisperCut jointing cutterhead. In the meantime, the world market leader from Oberkochen has turned it into a complete system family.
