A revolution in metal cutting from Austria LINCUT ® is an innovative, patented changing system from Linsinger that helped to revolutionise the saw blade industry using a simple concept.

technology. Circular saws equipped with a standard saw blade are expected to have a necessary two per cent standstill per year due to required tool changing. No matter what material, conventional carbon steel or highly alloyed stainless steel, the coating and shape of Lincut carbide plates maintains tool life. The saw blade body receives a perfect saw blade body tension and is designed for up to 100 uses (re- assembly with carbide plates) because of the high material quality. The saw blade stock is therefore reduced, which in turn lowers procurement, storage and operating costs. Linsinger runs its own tool technology centre in Austria, which specialises in research and development of tools. It also constantly expands its R&D department to continue making progress with innovations. Linsinger Maschinenbau GmbH – Austria Email: maschinenbau@linsinger.com Website: www.linsinger.com

Linsinger is now aiming to further expand its in-house Lincut saw blade production in order to increase performance and tool life, while also reducing power consumption. The Linsinger manufacturing capacity is expanding on a yearly basis to meet demand and has increased every year for more than ten years since the product was first developed. Linsinger believes it is important to manufacture equipment of the highest possible quality. It is also vital to use machines and tools from a single source to help achieve maximum efficiency. Lincut is a saw blade system that renders the welding of normal carbide pieces onto the saw blade body unnecessary. Instead it uses carbide plates that can be produced in all shapes and coatings and are simply screwed on. This method

has been established in cutting for decades and is now a popular sawing technology. The carbide plates (formerly saw tooth) can, if required, be exchanged individually directly at the saw machine by the operator. To enable this Linsinger has developed an entire tool-changing system from screwdriver to transport, which makes the exchange easy. Even the special screws that securely fix the cutting plates onto the saw blade body are developed by Linsinger. Sharpening is therefore unnecessary. The transport of a huge number of saw blades to a sharpening centre or the investment in an in-house sharpening centre can be omitted with the Linsinger
