📌 Why Choose Leitz?
Best For: Industrial Woodworking & Furniture Manufacturers, Wood Construction & Joinery, Plastics & Composites Industries, Craftsmen & Workshops.
- Group Synergy: As part of the Brucklacher Group, Leitz leverages direct access to sister companies Boehlerit (Carbide) and Bilz (Clamping). This unique ecosystem allows them to develop proprietary carbide grades and integrated clamping solutions that standalone toolmakers simply cannot replicate, ensuring superior tool stability and cutting endurance.
- Noise & Life Optimization: Their signature WhisperCut technology uses lightweight, aerodynamic designs to reduce noise by up to 5dB, significantly improving workshop safety. Meanwhile, the proprietary Marathon Coating extends tool life by roughly 30% in abrasive materials, directly solving the pain point of frequent downtime for tool changes.
- Structural Innovation: Specifically for window makers, the patented RipTec jointing system creates a ribbed cutting profile. This maximizes the glue surface area, guaranteeing stronger, weather-resistant joints that are impossible to achieve with standard flat surfacing tools.
- Global “Factory-Quality” Service: With over 100 service centers worldwide, Leitz offers a “pick-up and return” resharpening service that restores tools to their exact original geometries. This guarantees that a reground tool performs 100% like a new one, eliminating the inconsistency risks associated with local third-party sharpening shops.
- Digital Tool Management 4.0: Leitz integrates physical tools with digital workflows via embedded microchips and the LeitzXPert App. This allows CNC machines to automatically track remaining tool life and access cutting data, preventing errors. Furthermore, their CompleteCare program allows large factories to fully outsource tool logistics and stock management, converting fixed inventory costs into variable usage costs.
