Patent number: 12064822Abstract: A cutting tool includes a cutting insert having an anti-rotation stopping indent formed in a transition between a bottom surface and a side surface thereof and includes a first stop surface. The insert seat has at least one anti-rotation stop, which protrudes with respect to a side wall of the insert seat and includes a second stop surface. The anti-rotation stop is arranged to inhibit rotation of the cutting insert in the insert seat by contact between the first and second stop surfaces. The second stop surface is completely located within the anti-rotation stopping indent when the cutting insert is mounted. As seen in a section perpendicular to a common central axis, an angle of less than 180° is formed between a tangent to the second stop surface and a tangent to the first duct at a transition between the two.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2019Date of Patent: August 20, 2024Assignee: Seco Tools ABInventors: Antoine Bonenfant, Pascal Derimay

Patent number: 11890685Abstract: A rotatable cutting tool for machining of a honeycomb core includes a front end; a rear end; a peripheral surface extending between the front and rear ends; a set of helical flutes formed in the peripheral surface at a first helix angle 45°???65°, having a first depth; and a set of helical ridges. At least one helical groove formed in the peripheral surface at a second helix angle 90°<??100°, has a second depth, which is smaller than the first depth. The at least one helical groove intersects the helical ridges so that a plurality of cutting teeth are formed on each helical ridge. Each cutting tooth includes a second ridge formed in a transition between two lands, a cutting edge and a clearance edge join in a tooth tip constituting the radially outermost point of the cutting tooth.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Seco Tools ABInventors: Massimo Paletta, Hans Hermans
