Tooling
Cutting system
Patented for window production, the RipTec system from Leitz Tooling decreases blow-out on end-grain machining and creates a stronger joint, sealed against water and air penetration. Also used in conjunction with finish planers on four-sided moulders, RipTec virtually eliminates plucked grain in difficult-to-machine woods. When machining curved parts, combination finish knives plus RipTec knives prevent chipping and increase knife performance by as much as 50%.

Embedded toolbox
Completely embedded within AutoCAD, Microvellum Toolbox is designed to generate all the manufacturing information needed for production. The system comes with a library that can be configured to match the user’s construction methods. Shop drawings can be created using the user’s pre-defined library of product information, including materials, parts, hardware, machining and more. Any changes to the shop drawings automatically update all the manufacturing information. www.microvellum.com
 
Automatic dull tool detection
MultiCam has introduced automatic dull tool detection capabilities to its line of routers. After setting the normal current draw at the time a new tool is calibrated, the user can set a high current limit. Once the high current limit has been reached and maintained for a continuous period of time, the machine will pause and prompt the user to change the tool.
