About Schäffer Präzisionswerkzeuge
SCHÄFFER Präzisionswerkzeuge, based in Herford, has been developing and manufacturing precision tools for wood, plastic and aluminium processing since 1971. The product range includes circular saw blades, milling tools and high-performance drills, which are planned and developed in a customer- and application-oriented manner. In addition to new production, the company offers tool grinding and EDM technology, repair and maintenance (after-sales service), individual labelling of tools for trading partners, and peripherals such as machine parts with customised wear protection. Custom manufacturing to individual requirements is one of the company's strengths. The saw tools are characterised by consistent body and carbide quality, long tool life, good chip ejection and precise cutting quality. Schäffer is a partner for industry and trade, supplying customers in Germany.
