Leitz Tooling Technology

Six innovations that make Leitz the benchmark in professional wood, panel, and composite machining.

DIAMASTER PCD Diamond
Up to 100× tool life

Polycrystalline diamond (DP) tooling engineered for the longest tool life in the industry — up to 100× the edge life of carbide when machining coated panels, MDF, and composites.

HeliPlan & HeliCut Helical
Near mark-free finish

Spiral helical planing and cutter heads deliver an almost mark-free finish, quieter cutting, and efficient chip removal at higher feed speeds for a faster overall workflow.

ProfilCut & Multi-Profile
One head, many profiles

Modular profiling and multi-profile cutter systems for moulders and spindle machines — one head, many profiles, with precision-ground knives for repeatable joinery and trim.

DFC Dust Flow Control
97%+ chip clearance

Cutterheads engineered for highly efficient chip clearance of more than 97% — cleaner machines, better extraction, and superior edge quality on edgebanding lines.

Powerknife System PKS
Lower cost per cut

Replaceable backing-plate knife system for planing and rebating. Swap the wear knife instead of the whole head — lower cost per cut and less downtime on the machine.

Hydro Clamping & Tool ID
Precision + smart data

Closed hydraulic clamping for perfect concentricity, plus Leitz’s pioneering electronic tool-ID chip for smart tool data — the systems behind precision, repeatability, and safety.

Since 1876 — Oberkochen, Germany

150 Years of the Passion for Precision

Leitz pioneered polycrystalline diamond tooling for wood machining, hydraulic tool clamping, and the first electronic tool-ID chip. Today they are the world's leading maker of precision tools for solid wood, panel materials, plastics, and composites. Family Hardware is proud to bring that engineering to professional shops across Southwest Florida and nationwide.

How to Choose the Right Leitz Tool
Match the Bore & Mounting

Every cutterhead and saw blade must match your machine's spindle. Confirm the bore diameter (e.g. 30 mm), any keyway/DKN drive, and interface (fixed bore, HSK, or hydro clamping). Our team can cross-reference the exact Leitz part for your moulder, saw, or CNC.

Respect the Max Speed (MAN)

Every Leitz tool is marked with a maximum rotation speed (n max / MAN). Never run a tool above its rated RPM. Match tool diameter and rated speed to your machine's spindle speed for safe, clean cutting and full tool life.

Rotation & Hand (RL / LL)

Profile and moulder tooling is supplied in a specific hand — RL (right)or LL (left) — to match spindle rotation and feed direction. Ordering the correct hand is essential; we'll confirm it against your setup before you buy.

Carbide vs. Diamond (HW vs. DP)

HW (tungsten carbide) is versatile and resharpenable — ideal for solid wood and shorter runs. DP (PCD diamond) costs more up front but lasts far longer on abrasive coated panels, MDF, and composites — the lowest cost-per-cut at volume.
