These waveform cutting edges which are positioned rotationally symmetrically to each other are formed such that, when the insert bodies are rotated by the predetermined angle around the reference line, one or more portions of the waveform cutting edges do not match each other and are mutually asymmetrical.

Abstract: In the radius end mill, main gash faces has an angle of inclination with respect to an axis that is smaller than a twist angle of chip discharge flutes. The main gash faces are formed on inner circumferential sides of distal end portions of wall surfaces that face in a tool rotation direction of helically twisted chip discharge flutes, which is formed on an outer circumference of a distal end portion of a tool body that is rotated around the axis. End cutting edges are formed on a distal end of the main gash faces. Sub gash faces has an angle of inclination with respect to the axis that is greater than that of the main gash faces. The sub gash faces are formed on an outer circumferential side of the main gash faces such that they extend away via step portions from the main gash faces.

Abstract: Efficient plunge cutting work in which the tool body moves forward and backward in the axial direction to cut the wall face of a workpiece at high feed-speed, is possible even in the cutting process with backward motions. The tool body 1 has a cylindrical shape with an axis O as its center axis, and provides the insert pocket 3 in the outer periphery close to the tip. The cutting insert 10 is detachably attached in the insert pocket 3. Then, by rotating the tool body 1 and by feeding it along the axis O, the cutting insert 10 cuts the wall face of a workpiece. Furthermore, the insert pocket includes a bottom face which faces the tool rotational direction and, wall faces 3B, 3C and 3D which extend from the bottom face toward the tool rotational direction.
