wood-machining and lightweight engineering with the LUKAS product range

As one of the leading manufacturers in the market for grinding, milling, polishing and cutting tools, LUKAS-ERZETT offers the perfect assortment for wood-machining and lightweight engineering. From manual tools through to robotic systems, the company offers everything that is needed for challenging projects. With its many years of experience and a strong focus on technology and innovation, LUKAS-ERZETT is the ideal partner for everyone who requires reliable tools in the wood-machining and lightweight engineering sectors.

Lightweight engineering is still an innovative concept that has proven itself in many industries, especially in recent years, and is steadily gaining in significance. It primarily involves using lightweight, yet robust materials to save weight, while increasing stability and functionality. Lightweight engineering plays an important role in wood-machining. For example, it allows construction projects to be realised that would otherwise not be possible due to their weight. The use of high-quality tools to achieve perfect results is crucial here.

LUKAS-ERZETT offers a wide range of tailor-made wood-machining tools which, among other things, are specially designed to meet the requirements of lightweight engineering. LUKAS tools are characterised by their exceptionally high precision, durability and efficiency. They are also easy to handle and the material can always be machined quickly and safely.

Its toothing means that a burr is generally suitable for materials of a different hardness. But where HSS and stippled burrs quickly give up, the Wood rasp burr from LUKAS convinces with its exceptionally long tool life. It is suitable for practically every material that has a comparable hardness to wood and possesses similar properties (density, toughness, etc.). This is achieved by manufacturing it from fine-grain tungsten carbide, which allows wood and other lightweight engineering materials to be machined for long periods of time. The Wood rasp burr displays its superiority with fast material removal rates in particular during deburring, modelling and smoothening work.

Lightweight engineering materials, such as polyurethane-based materials, are a key factor in modern structural engineering. Their low density combined with high stability make them ideal for aerospace and marine engineering applications. These materials are used, for example, in aircraft cabins and on ships to achieve a low overall weight and therefore increased fuel efficiency and effectiveness. They also offer enhanced sound insulation and fire resistance.

LUKAS unswervingly pursues the goal of combining quality and safety with future-oriented answers. The in-house development division has accumulated many years of extensive user, production and industry knowledge, and continually optimises the assortment to always offer you the best performance, even when machining advanced materials. With its high quality standards, LUKAS not only focuses on manufacturing and marketing its products, but also offers expert consulting services for grinding, milling, polishing and cutting tools, as well as an extensive range of optimised accessories.

Another popular lightweight engineering material is composite fibreboard, which is often popular in the construction of buildings and transportation and sports equipment on account of its high strength and rigidity despite its low weight. These materials comprise a combination of resins and pure fibres, which are compressed under pressure and heat. Composite fibreboards, in particular, have a high load-bearing capacity, good impact resistance and long service life. They are also resistant to moisture, chemicals and UV radiation. The advantages of LUKAS burrs are exploited to the full when machining this material.

It is possible to work quickly and with little effort with the rasp burr from LUKAS because it is always ready and eager to cut wood or soft materials thanks to its coarse cutting geometry. Annoying vibrations are unknown to the Wood rasp burr. As well as wood, this tool can also machine all types of plastics and rubber, making it the ideal all-rounder for use in model-making.

Professional model-making plays an important role in industrial sectors such as the automotive and aerospace industries and mechanical engineering. New kinds of components are created from a variety of materials, such as wood, composite fibreboard or rigid foam boards, using model and mould-making methods. Shaping the workpiece is followed by the finer finishing: deburring, modelling and smoothening are the ideal terrain for the LUKAS Wood burr. It can also be universally used for wood through to wood-plastic composites and non-ferrous metals.

As a manufacturer of high-quality tools for surface finishing, it is particularly important for LUKAS-ERZETT to consistently provide a good customer service.
