  • Publication number: 20170282262
    Abstract: A reversible cutting insert for milling has first and second cutting edges formed at the transitions from the top and bottom surfaces to a lateral face. The cutting insert has a 4-fold rotational symmetry. A reference plane extends perpendicular to the axis of symmetry. The cutting edges have four cutting edge portions. One cutting edge portion is a main edge and a wiper edge that are connected by a rounded cutting corner. The first and second cutting edges are at the greatest distance from the reference plane in the region of the cutting corners. Main and wiper clearance faces directly adjoin an assigned main edge and wiper edge, respectively, in the circumferential lateral face. Exterior angles between the main clearance faces and the reference plane are greater than exterior angles between the wiper clearance faces and the reference plane.

  • Publication number: 20170239736
    Abstract: A tool for machining has a main body, a seat formed on the main body, a fastening screw, and a cutting insert. The seat has a base surface for supporting an underside of the cutting insert and a lateral bearing surface. A bore for receiving the fastening screw is formed in the base surface, the bore has a threaded bore portion and, closer toward the base surface, a thread-free bore portion. The cutting insert is fastened to the seat such that the head portion of the fastening screw is supported on the through-hole in the cutting insert. The threaded portion of the fastening screw engages with the threaded bore and the fastening screw is elastically deflected such that a thread-free shank portion bears against the thread-free bore portion on a side remote from the lateral bearing surface and is spaced apart from the thread-free bore portion.

  • Patent number: 9669478
    Abstract: A milling tool has a tool shank and a cutting head fastened to the forward end of the tool shank by way of a clamping connection. The clamping connection has a protrusion with clamping faces, and a recess with centering faces that interact with the clamping faces. Each of the centering faces has a first region where the centering faces are spaced from a longitudinal axis of the tool shank by a first distance and a second region at a smaller distance. The first region merges into the second region. The clamping faces of the protrusion are introducible into the recess between the first regions of the centering faces and are movable, by rotation of the cutting head about the longitudinal axis, into a clamping position in which the clamping faces interact in a force-fit with the second regions of the centering faces.

  • Publication number: 20170066065
    Abstract: An indexable cutting insert for face milling with high feed rates has: an upper side, a lower side with a smaller outer circumference than the upper side, and side surfaces connecting the upper and lower sides. Rounded cutting corners are formed at the transition between the side surfaces and the upper side. The cutting corners are connected via convexly arched cutting edges, each running convexly curved from one cutting corner to an adjacent cutting corner. Adjacent the cutting edges, the side surfaces have main flanks extending along the respective cutting edge in a continuously convexly curved manner from one cutting corner to an adjacent cutting corner. The main flanks extend in the direction of the lower side only over part of the height of the side surfaces and merge in a stepped manner into secondary surfaces which are set back inward.

The cutting edges have an all-round cutting edge chamfer with a chamfer angle ?. This chamfer angle ? has along the cutting corners a value in the range from ?10° to ?20° and changes continuously along sub-portions of the face cutting edge and main cutting edge and along the circular portion to a constant value in the range from 0° to ?10°.
