LIGNA 2015
 
LEUCO nn-System DP flex

The new diamond-tipped LEUCO nn-System saw blades, with innovative, small chip gullets and slim cutting widths, will be available for table saws, panel sizing saws and miter saws for CNC stationary machines, at and after the LIGNA.

 
 
LEUCO UltraProfiler plus

The new LEUCO cutterhead "Ultraprofiler Plus" enables a cutting speed of up to 80 m/s. Thanks to the new clamping set-up the user can change the cutters manually with the highest precision.

 

Taking the world of tools to the next level:
tool innovations and innovative application solutions

LIGNA, the leading trade fair for the wood and furniture industry, will take place on May 11-15, 2015 in Hannover/Germany. LEUCO will be represented as a tool manufacturer at this national and international wood and furniture industry get-together, in centrally located Hall 26, Stand B 30.

At LEUCO the spotlight is on all-round tool innovations and innovative application solutions. LEUCO has taken things to the next level. At LEUCO, interested individuals get innovative answers:  How can users improve the processing quality with tools? How can throughput be increased and resources be saved? Which work steps can be used to achieve specific results in a smart way?
 
Development studies on the subject of networked manufacturing shows the enormous potential for companies in the wood furniture industry in a "digital resumé" for milling cutters and similar tools. Up-to-date and constantly available data between the machine, tool and sharpening cycle interfaces lead to trouble-free "Plug & Play" - in other words, onset and seamless start up of operation.
 
At LIGNA, LEUCO attends to its visitors with an international team. We especially look forward to interacting personally with our guests!

Tool innovations for LIGNA 2015

"You can hardly hear anything", is what customers are saying about the new diamond-tipped "LEUCO nn-System" circular saw blades. Thanks to the innovative and very small chip gullets, these saw blades are currently amongst the quietest diamond-tipped blades on the market - when running idle or in action. The hollow-ground tooth geometry results in extremely clean and precise cuts in a wide range of applications; from cross-sectional and longitudinal cuts to solid woods, laminated wooden panels up to plastics and abrasive materials like mineral materials and fiber cement bound materials. All of this plus a long edge life thanks to the diamond-tips. The development engineers at LEUCO transferred the system concept of saw blades - small chip gullets and slim cutting widths - to all saw blade types. The expanded "LEUCO nn-System" product range for all machine types will be presented at the LIGNA 2015 for the first time. "nn-System DP flex" sizing saw blades for table saws and CNC systems, adjustable scoring saw blades and "nn-System DP panel" version for panel sizing saws.

The new highly stable diamond-tipped nesting cutter program from LEUCO meets the needs of the growing number of facilities that utilize the nesting procedure. Nesting is ideal for producing individual parts and small batch sizes on CNC stationary machines. High stability and balance quality give the new milling cutters very high operating smoothness. The advantage for users include a very long tool life, the best cut quality and low noise emission.
With the integration of the LEUCO "CM" chip removal concept, the new milling cutters satisfy a key criteria: The chips are guided in the direction of the dust extraction, are optimally vacuumed away, double chip removal is avoided and heat development is reduced.  The tool is subject to measurably less wear. The cutting quality on edges and middle layers is significantly better.
The jointing cutters with a negative spiral are ideal, particularly when nesting smaller and/or narrower workpieces, that tend to shift when processed on the CNC. The cutting pressure acts against the upper panel surface and pushes the workpiece towards the suction.
The new DP high-performance range is available in diameters of 12 and 16 with cutting widths of 22 and 28 mm. The special base frame of the end mills, with a diameter of 12 mm, makes this dimension extremely stable. An additional optimization is yielded by the special arrangement of the blades and the company-developed chip gullet design.

"Less noise while machining" is the motto of the new "LEUCO PowerTec III topline LowNoise hogger". The PowerTec hogger is used in double end tenoners with high feed rates. This hogger is recommended when perfect cutting quality and long tool life is in demand, for instance for use with hard and sensitive high-gloss materials. The cutter can be used starting with a workpiece thickness of 8 mm. The LEUCO PowerTec III topline hogger has been one of the most in-demand cutters on the market for a long time now.
The new design of the PowerTec tool body prevents air turbulence and noise emission is greatly reduced - up to 5 dB(A) when running idle and up to 2 dB(A) when in action. This makes work conditions significantly more comfortable.  This makes the cutter the quietest in its class. The LowNoise design is visible from first glance. The clamping frame and projecting edges are aerodynamically rounded and optimized with software computations.

The knives on the new high-performance cutterhead "UltraProfiler plus" from LEUCO are changed manually yet quickly with the highest level of precision. With the innovative cutting insert clamp the blades position themselves on their own without clearance. The user requires a max. of 10 seconds for the change. The blades have a precise and firm seat; the safety of the head is guaranteed. This way the new UltraProfiler plus reaches a cutting speed up to 80 m/s. With its aluminum base frame, the cutterhead is used in double end tenoners and molding machines as well as in spindle molders and machining centers to shape solid timber and wood materials. The cutterhead body and mounting plates will be profiled according to customer specifications.
