With its "Q-Cut G6" saw blade, tool manufacturer LEUCO is setting new standards in the cutting of coated panels. The saw blade is the preferred tool of furniture manufacturers and interior furnishing specialists thanks to its outstanding quality and reliability for the finish cut. This includes the globally active REINHOLD KELLER Group. As an experienced roll-out partner in interior furnishings for the catering, hotel, fitness and healthcare sectors, the company relies on precise and efficient production processes. The excellent cutting quality of the LEUCO saw blade, which provides clean edges and maximum fitting accuracy, is therefore highly valued - essential for the series production of high-quality interior furnishings.

The Q-Cut G6 saw blade impresses with its innovative geometry and the high quality of the carbide-tipped teeth. The REINHOLD KELLER Group from Kleinheubach in Bavaria appreciates this. The company manufactures furnishings for hotels, catering businesses and fitness centers. Precision and efficiency are the key success factors for the family-owned business and at the same time set the standard for the tools used.

The ideal cut for worldwide production

„We are a global player, deliver to over 90 countries and have state-of-the-art production equipment for which we rely on precision tools from LEUCO," says Jürgen Hennig, Team Leader for Machinery at REINHOLD KELLER. "This," continues the master carpenter, "enables us to achieve results that are fully in line with our understanding of quality." The interior furnishings producer uses the Q-Cut G6 saw blade on his fully and semi-automatic cutting systems. "The saws," says Jürgen Hennig, "are in constant use. Regardless of whether we are cutting a larger quantity or a single panel. You can always rely on the Q-Cut G6 to do this precisely and efficiently."

Economical and powerful for every challenge

The price-performance ratio is also right, emphasizes Jürgen Hennig. New purchases and resharpening paid off. This is an important factor in view of the high load on the tools caused by the large processing quantities and the challenging sheet material, which contains an increased amount of foreign matter. "We always run two shifts and need around two to three saw blades per day on each machine. Because of the high processing volume and the increasingly demanding nature of the panels, we check the tools every quarter of an hour or so and change them sooner rather than later," emphasizes the master carpenter. In this way, the company ensures consistent quality of the finished cuts, even with an extremely demanding mix of materials. For example, solid core panels and wood core plywood (blockboard) with or without an HPL coating, 3-layer panels and particle board with all common surfaces can be sawn without changing the saw blade. According to Jürgen Hennig, with the G6 a user "can process an average of around two to two and a half thousand running meters before the saw blade needs resharpening.“ 

Precision and durability thanks to advanced saw blade technology

The tool always produces excellent results. "The high cutting quality," explains Heiko Späth, LEUCO Regional Manager and master carpenter himself, "results from the low vibration of the tool body. In addition, the saw blade has a smooth-running tooth geometry that ensures long tool life thanks to two leading teeth with increased cutting performance and four trailing teeth for the finish cut." According to Späth, the Q-Cut G6 saw blade is perfect for processing both single panels and stacks with a cutting height of up to 80 millimeters. He adds: "The special LEUCO carbide also makes the tool resistant to breakage and impact."

Good cooperation for maximum reliability

In addition to the outstanding products from LEUCO, the master carpenter emphasizes the reliability of the tool supplier in Horb. Jürgen Hennig: "It just works really well. If I have a problem or am missing a tool, then Sales, Service or the office staff will help me immediately. Everything possible is done to provide me with a replacement tool quickly. As a customer, I feel very well looked after." The personal contact with LEUCO is highly valued at REINHOLD KELLER and also contributes to the success of the company, which is now being managed by the 6th generation, summarizes Hennig.

A complete range of tools from LEUCO

Thanks to the high level of quality and service, the interior furnishings expert relies entirely on LEUCO products, including hoggers, jointing and flush-cutting tools, scraper blades as well as rounding and diamond-tipped tools, from its CNC machining center to its through-feed machine. "For nesting, we rely on the high-speed cutter from LEUCO," explains Tool Manager Hennig. "It ensures an impressive number of running meters processed - even with demanding surfaces, such as those found on the printed panels from MB Digitalprint, a company of the REINHOLD KELLER Group. The top layer is extremely abrasive due to the applied clear coat, which has a high proportion of mineral corundum. Nevertheless, the cutter runs through it phenomenally - just like the G6 saw blade on every one of our panels."
