Transforming timber window production with Lignum tooling

Transforming timber window production with Lignum tooling

B J Waller was proud to support a recent event held in collaboration with The Joinery Network and Teknos. The event focused on Lignum Tooling, a system designed by The Joinery Network and manufactured by Leitz Tooling, and how manufacturers can streamline production processes without compromising the craftsmanship and quality that define timber windows.

While timber machinery continues to evolve, B J Waller’s Managing Director Luke Piper said that one of the standout messages from the event was clear: the real innovation lies in the tooling.

Luke and the B J Waller team have played a key role in shaping this product, drawing on its industry insight and hands-on experience.

The Lignum zero-set tooling system is said to be a “game-changer” for manufacturers. By removing the need for manual setup, it reduces downtime, boosts accuracy, and enables single-pass machining — a significant leap forward in efficiency.

Key benefits of Lignum Tooling include:

  • No Manual Setup – Zero-set design ensures faster changeovers and consistent output
  • Single Pass Efficiency – Achieve high-quality finishes without repeated handling or sanding
  • Designed by Joiners, for Joiners – Built with real-world manufacturing challenges in mind

Combined with Teknos’ latest generation of advanced coatings, the system allows for a cleaner, faster, and more profitable approach to timber window production.

Luke said: “As a trusted supplier and advocate for innovation, B J Waller is committed to supporting the UK joinery sector in adopting smarter, future-ready manufacturing methods.

“This is more than just progress — it’s a new standard, and BJ Waller is proud to help lead the way.”
