Abstract: A shaft tool for machine tools, has a shaft, a tool head disposed at a shaft end and equipped with at least one cutting element, and a coupling element disposed at the other shaft end for direct or indirect connection to a machine spindle. A peripheral groove extends along the circumference of the shaft and is open radially, and at least one spreading element engages in the peripheral groove and can be radially adjusted therein, resulting in the exertion of spreading and bending forced onto the groove flanks. The peripheral groove is filled with a filler material at least in the area of the spreading element, the filler material having both a sealing function against contaminants and a damping function. The filler material also acts as a rotation prevention for the spreading elements.

Abstract: A cutting tool setting system contains a tool head for the settable holding of a cutting tool, the head having an adjustment device for the cutting tool. The cutting tool setting system has a setting tool which can be mechanically removably engaged in the tool head at an interface for adjusting the adjustment device in the tool head. The setting tool contains a shaft body having a key part. A key engagement for actuating the adjustment device is designed on the tool head. The key part can be displaced relative to the shaft body in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the body in order to selectively couple and release the key part of the setting tool and the key part at the interface of the tool head.

Abstract: The tool has a clamping part (2) and a working part (11). It consists of a wear-resistant material, which contains tungsten carbide which has a grain size that lies in the range between approximately 0.2 and approximately 0.5 ?m. The clamping part (2) consists of a tough material, which likewise contains tungsten carbide which has a grain size in the range between approximately 0.8 and approximately 1.3 ?m. In a transitional region (11) between the working part (11) and the clamping part (2), the proportion of wear-resistant tungsten carbide decreases in the direction of the clamping part (2) to 0 and the proportion of tough tungsten carbide decreases in the direction of the working part (11) to 0. The mixing ratio between wear-resistant and tough tungsten carbide changes approximately steadily in the transitional region (10).

Abstract: A drilling tool for machine tools has a drill body and a cutting head arranged on the front face of the drill body. The drill body has at least two chip flutes, which are delimited at their flanks by ribs and at least one of which is spirally curved. Arranged in the ribs of the drill body are coolant channels, which have an outlet opening at the end of the drill body on the cutting head side. A special feature is that the outlet openings are arranged within each one of the chip flutes and communicate with one of the coolant channels arranged in the ribs by way of a straight channel endpiece.

Abstract: The invention relates to a drilling tool with a base, having a central axis of rotation, and a drill bit, detachably connected to the base. The drill bit has a coupling part, which can be coupled with a coupling receptacle on the face of the base and has at least two convexly curved centring portions, which are arranged such that they are distributed over the circumference and engage with an exact fit in complementary concavely curved centring portions of the coupling receptacle. The coupling part has a complementary driver stop, meshing with a rotary driver of the coupling receptacle. It is claimed as novel that the centring portions of the coupling part and/or of the coupling receptacle have clamping surfaces, which run onto each other in the manner of a rotary wedge until the driver stop and the rotary driver come up against each other counter to a predetermined direction of rotation.

Abstract: The main body (12) of a machine tool (10) comprises a plate seat (18) having a plate element (16) arranged thereon. The plate element (16) has at least one plate edge (38), which protrudes freely to the outside over the plate seat (18) and rests against a bottom support surface of the plate seat (18). The plate element (16) can be fixed to the plate seat (18) by way of a bolt (20) extending through a bore hole in the plate element (16). A first brace (22) for the plate element (16) is provided on the plate seat (18), said brace having a support surface (34) against which the plate element (16) rests non-positively with a lateral plate surface. A further brace (24) is designed on the plate seat (18) for a lateral plate surface of the plate element (16) to rest against non-positively.

Abstract: A rotating machine tool has a base with a rotating axis, at least one pocket formed in the base and at least one blade support holding a cutting plate. Two side surfaces of the blade support sit against a side support surface, respectively, the blade support side surfaces making an angle between them, and the base of the blade support sits against a base support surface of the pocket, the blade support being clamped in the pocket removably by way of a clamp element. The cutting plate protrudes over the blade support with an effective blade and over the base outward.

Abstract: An indexable insert for solid drills has four identical cutting edges (30) arranged at a distance above a supporting base (42) and each extending between two cutting-edge corners (28?, 28?). The cutting edges are each bounded by a cutting face (46) and a clearance face (48), with the inclusion of a wedge angle (b). Of the cutting edges (30), one in each case is in an active operating position during the drilling operation. To permit optimum adaptation to the cutting conditions and drilling characteristics, varying over the length of the cutting edge of the drilling tool, it is proposed according to the invention that the height (h) of the four cutting edges (30), measured from the plane of the supporting base (42), and/or the clearance angle (a) varies over the length of the respective cutting edges (30).

The cutting tool comprises at least one cutting insert, designed as an indexable insert, that has an active main blade located near a corner of the insert, the outer end of said blade defining a circular flight path radius (R) as the blade rotates, said blade penetrating into a work piece at a pre-determined cutting depth (t) near a pre-formed round hole. Also provided is a secondary blade that is disposed opposite to an advancing direction and that aligns with the outermost end of the main blade, the entire length of said blade having a smaller radius than the circular flight path radius (R) of the main blade, wherein a secondary blade free surface aligns with the secondary blade opposite to the direction of rotation.

Static information about the tools are stored in the database, and the server processes the received data, parameters and information items to generate updated information about the tools.

Abstract: A junction between two components of a tool system, that rotates about an axis of rotation, includes a conical seat, on the first component, coaxial to the axis of rotation and which is defined by an annular front face. The second component carries a coupling having a conical surface complementary to the conical seat and an annular end face resting against the front face. A tie bolt axially projects beyond the free end of the coupling pin and engages, in a cavity adjacent to the seat. The junction also has tensioning elements that are actuated from the exterior for mutually bracing the components, which are radially guided in the first component, and which act upon the tie bolt and are functionally linked with joint actuating means for adjustment between detached and tensioned positions. The tensioning elements include ejection portions that can be fitted with a rotatably received rolling element.
