LEUCO t3-System

LEUCO’s t3-System is setting a new standard in solid wood and wood-based material machining. With patent-pending triangular turnover knives and an innovative shear-angle design, the t3-System delivers chip-free surfaces, superior edge quality, and zero overcuts — proven in head-to-head testing against leading competitors at Weinmann’s multifunction bridge facility.

WHY CHOOSE THE t3-SYSTEM

01

Faster Feed, Superior Chip Evacuation

In head-to-head testing at Weinmann, the t3-System achieved 12 m/min feed rates using only 30% spindle power — while the competitor produced burn marks at 10 m/min. Optimized spiral plunge-cutting and chip evacuation keep gullets clear and dust extraction efficient.

02

Centered Shear Angle, No Overcuts

Triangular knives are positioned so cutting pressure acts inward — eliminating the overcuts that plague standard square-insert tools. The result: clean edges, no burn marks, and no rework, even when cutting crossgrain or across the grain.

03

Drill and Chamfer in One Pass

The 45° upper cutting edges allow drilling and chamfering to happen simultaneously, eliminating a separate process step and saving measurable production time on every hole.

04

Easy Maintenance, 10-Minute Knife Change

All 18 turnover knives can be removed, cleaned, and repositioned in 10–15 minutes with a standard Allen key. Three cutting edges per knife extend tool life well beyond standard square-insert competitors.

Test Results: t3 vs. Square Insert

Side-by-side results from Weinmann’s WALLTEC M-300 testing: LEUCO t3 achieved 12 m/min at 30% spindle power with zero burn marks. The competitor showed burn marks before reaching 10 m/min.
