Abstract: A cartridge for positioning a cutting insert onto a machining tool has a central longitudinal axis, along which the cutting insert is configured to be positioned and an end wall for supporting the cartridge. The end wall defines a first surface extending beyond the end wall and transversally to the central longitudinal axis. The cartridge includes a rear wall for supporting the cartridge against the machining tool and defining a second surface extending beyond the rear wall and a front clamping wall having a clamping hole. The clamping hole extends along a clamping direction and is configured to receive a clamping screw for clamping the cartridge onto the machining tool, wherein the clamping direction is arranged to intersect the first and second surfaces.

Abstract: A percussion drilling apparatus is arranged to affect at least one characteristic of a shock wave produced in a drill string.
