Abstract:
A holder for a cutting tool, comprising a body having a first channel for receiving a stein portion of the cutting tool. The body has a second channel intersecting with said first channel. The holder further comprises a plunger (13) to be inserted in the second channel, said plunger (13) having a third channel (14) the cross section of which at least partly overlaps with the cross section of the first channel when the plunger (13) is inserted into the body so as to enable the stem of the cutting tool to extend into the third channel (14) when the stem is inserted in the first channel. The holder (1) further comprises a mechanism (26) for locking the stem against movement relative to the body by means of the plunger. The invention furthermore relates to a cutting tool for use in such a holder and a cutting insert.
Abstract:
A cutting insert has an approximately polygonal plate shape with a cutting edge formed on a intersection portion between a rake face and a flank. A chip breaker is formed on the rake face, and a chip-breaker concave portion is defined by an inclined surface which is curved in a concave manner and which is smoothly connected to the bottom surface portion while being gradually inclined toward the bottom surface portion, from a peripheral edge portion on a nose portion side to a bottom surface portion.
Abstract:
A cutting insert includes a top face, a bottom face and a plurality of side walls extending between the top face and the bottom face. A peripheral cutting edge is defined at the juncture of each side wall and the top face. Each cutting edge includes a linear cutting edge portion and a concave cutting edge portion that curves inwardly in a plane that is perpendicular to a plane containing a central axis of the cutting insert. A radiused corner portion connects two adjacent cutting edges. Each linear cutting edge portion extends from one radiused corner portion to the concave cutting edge portion and the concave cutting edge portion extends from the linear cutting edge portion to another radiused corner portion.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a polygonal turning insert having primary cutting edges, which individually include a nose edge and two main edges, which converge toward the same. Behind the nose edge, chip-directing guide surfaces are formed, on one hand, with a breast surface included in a knob situated behind the nose edge along a bisector between the main edges, and, on the other hand, with a pair of flank surfaces included in a land there behind. At a distance behind the knob, there is formed a second breast surface, the upper part of which is situated on a higher level than the upper part of the first breast surface. In such a way, it is guaranteed that thin chips, which tend to pass or jump over the first breast surface without being affected by the same, will impinge on the second, higher breast surface and be subjected to guiding by the same.

The holder further includes a mechanism for locking the stem against movement relative to the body by means of the plunger. A cutting tool for use in such a holder and a cutting insert are also provided.
Abstract:
The cutting insert is provided with an insert main body, a cutting edge formed at a circumferential edge of the rake face of the insert main body to have a corner edge and two side edges arranged on the both sides thereof, a protrusion portion formed on the rake face, and a pair of convex portions formed so as to extend out to the side edges on both sides divided by a bisector of the corner edge from a wall surface of the protrusion portion to the rake face. Each of the pair of convex portions is provided with a first wall surface which extends so as to separate gradually from each other toward the cutting edge from the wall surface of the protrusion portion, and facing the corner edge of the cutting edge, and a second wall surface in contact with the first wall surface and continuing to both ends of the corner edge, facing the side edge. The first and the second wall surfaces incline toward the rake face as they extend away from a ridge line between the both wall surfaces. The ridge line is in contact with the wall surface of the protrusion portion at a position lower than the top portion of the protrusion portion closer to the corner edge. On the rake face closer to the corner edge than the pair of convex portions, a recess having a rear wall portion which extends so as to cross the bisector between the corner edge and the convex portion is formed.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an eight-edged rotatable and reversible cutting insert having two opposite, substantially square base surfaces which are twisted relative to one another about a central axis running perpendicularly to said base surfaces, and having four identical side surfaces, wherein a main lip is formed between each base surface and each side surface. A bearing surface is formed between two chip grooves which extend along the associated main lip of the respective side surface, said bearing surface extending symmetrically beyond the groove ends of the adjacent chip groove and transversely to the main lips until its adjoins the latter.
Abstract:
A cutting insert has two opposing end surfaces, a peripheral side surface extending therebetween and a peripheral edge formed at an intersection of each end surface with the peripheral side surface. The peripheral edge includes two minor edges and a cutting edge extending therebetween, a first section of each minor edge extending from the cutting edge generally towards the opposing end surface.
Abstract:
It is an object to provide a CBN cutting tool using cBN-based sintered bodies which shows high resistance to chipping even when a hard ferric workpiece which is difficult to cut is cut at a high feed rate for high-speed, high-efficiency machining, and which can provide a machined surface that shows superior surface roughness, and improved fatigue life and sealability. A cBN-based sintered body of a cutting tip has an arcuate nose 5, a rake face 6, flanks 7 and a negative land 9. One of the cutting edges 10 defined between the negative land 9 and the flanks 7 that serves as an end cutting edge forms an inclination angle 6′ of not less than 20 degrees and not more than 35 degrees with respect to the rake face. Further, the cutting edges 10 are positioned such that they are the lowest at the apex P of the arcuate nose and gradually rise from the apex P toward two points Q1 and Q2, respectively.
Abstract:
Cutting tool, such as for end-cut and longitudinal turning, and for cutting grooves in a workpiece, which has an end or major cutting edge and two side or minor cutting edges, each of which are connected to the end or major cutting edge by two outer corners. Additional corner chip-breakers are formed between each of the outer corners and the ends of a chip-guiding rib.
