Sawing of composites

Sawing is a particularly efficient processing method for long, straight contours - this process has established itself especially for honeycomb panels and sandwich structures.

LEUCO offers DP and TC-tipped circular saw blades for this purpose, tailored to almost any material and any application. The tools impress with their high feed rates, excellent cutting quality and long tool life.

An overview of the available variants can be found in the product catalog - our experts will be happy to advise you on the optimum solution.

But tools are not alone responsible for successful machining. Often, it is only by intelligently combining tools, clamping elements and, if applicable, aggregate technology that the optimal and most economical machining results are achieved. LEUCO relies on modern and highly accurate clamping elements for precision tools which also contribute to your tool's edge life.

The extreme abrasion of the fibers in CFRP causes rapid tool wear, while delamination, fiber surplus and chipping reduce the cutting quality - especially in thin-walled components. LEUCO offers specially developed PCD milling cutters and diamond-coated tools that significantly increase tool life and precision.

Whether pure CFRP structures or material combinations such as CFRP-aluminum or CFRP-titanium: LEUCO supplies the right tool for every application, even for demanding, tear-free drilling and countersinking in the aerospace industry.

When drilling and sawing GRP, chipping, delamination and high wear often occur - caused by the abrasive glass fibers. LEUCO offers diamond-coated drill bits, precise PCD circular saw blades and specially designed milling cutters that enable clean cuts, low heat generation and long tool life.

Even in dust-intensive applications, optimized tool geometries ensure reliable results - for efficient and reliable GRP machining in series and individual part production.
