The edge life of a „common“ HW circular saw blade is limited, the use of an alternative diamond saw blade is often not economic. This dilemma can be solved by the „Topcoat“ coating of LEUCO HW circular saw blades.

By means of PVD-Technology (Physical Vapour Deposition) a coating is applied to the border area of the saw blade which considerably increases the wear resistance of the cutting edge. By choosing the correct tungsten carbide grade, the respective cutting geometry as well as a special cutting edge preparation and surface treatment clearly increased edge lives can be achieved. These increased edge lives can be maintained throughout the whole tool life, even after several resharpenings. Thus up to edge lives can be increased up to 4 times which results in less machine downtimes and less setup times and guarantees constant working quality over a longer period.
