  • Publication number: 20120308318
    Abstract: A cutting insert with a substantially triangular or square basic form is particularly suited for face milling at high feed rates. It has convex cutting edges, which are each made up of a circular arc and at least one straight portion. Each cutting edge has, adjoining a cutting corner, a straight face cutting edge that merges with a main cutting edge, having 1 to 3 straight portions, a circular portion with a radius of at most 80% of the radius Ri of the inscribed circle. 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°.

  • Publication number: 20120082521
    Abstract: A cutting tool has a main tool body and at least one insert seat disposed thereon. The seat has a bottom surface for mounting a cutting insert, and further has a dowel pin, which penetrates a through-hole of the mounted cutting insert and the bottom surface and can be fixed to the main tool body. A center longitudinal axis of the fixed dowel pin is arranged at an acute angle with respect to the bottom surface. The dowel pin contains a spherical segment for mounting on a bearing surface of the through-hole. The surface of the spherical segment is interrupted by a segment groove.

  • Patent number: 6835064
    Abstract: A light hardening device is provided for hardening a light hardenable mass applied for dental purposes that has a first light emitting diode for emitting light at a range of intensities corresponding to a set of wavelengths which at most only partially overlap a range of light sensitivities of a photo initiator comprised in the mass. The light hardening device also includes a second light emitting diode for emitting light at a range of intensities corresponding to a set of wavelengths which overlap the set of photo initiator light sensitivities to a relatively greater extent than the partial overlap of the range of first light emitting diode intensities with the range of photo initiator light sensitivities.
