KINKELDER has a dedicated expert team of material specialists, application engineers, process engineers, tool design engineers, and quality engineers. This team assists KINKELDER customers in achieving the productivity goals by offering the best suited saw blade as well as giving advice on its optimal use under the users' conditions. In some specific user cases, an optimized saw blade is developed to meet productivity goals.
KINKELDER invests strongly in specialized tools for saw blade development. The expert team has its dedicated laboratory for analyzing the composition, structure, and geometry of components and complete saw blades, both new and used. KINKELDER has 2 in-house sawing machines for testing and designing circular saw blades: 1 machine designed for high productivity tube cutting, and the other one designed specifically for solid cutting applications. KINKELDER develops proprietary PVD coating recipes enhancing saw blade performance.
KINKELDER cooperates with universities and research centers. In these cooperations, the fundamental expertise of universities and research topics is translated into application-oriented solutions for KINKELDER's new generations of saw blades. Therefore, KINKELDER also joins forces with customers, suppliers and steel manufacturers on new saw blade developments. With customers, these cooperations vary from multi-year partnerships to short periods for the performance evaluation of specific prototypes in specific product market applications. With steel manufacturers, KINKELDER cooperates on new and specialized steels. The use of specialized steels largely depends on processing costs, and circular saws offer the most effective solution for high-productivity cutting.Enabling cost-effective cutting allows users to economically use these new and specialized steels and thereby opening new markets.

KINKELDER invests in continuous quality improvement. Every production step is thoroughly monitored with advanced quality control equipment. Quality engineers and controllers are involved in checks, process improvement, and analysis of underperformance. The quality team ensures consistently performing products to our customers.
All Research and Development activities lead to a continuous flow of new and improved sawblades and services in existing and new applications. For example, several of these developments led to new applications for circular saw blades, which previously could only be cut by band saws. As a result, productivity for the customer increased by a factor of 5 to 10 , and consequently the foot print of sawing machines was reduced, saving investment cost and increasing production speed.
