  • Publication number: 20240123511
    Abstract: A cutting tool with through coolant has an elongated shank and a cutting portion. The cutting portion is configured to remove material from a workpiece by cutting. An outer peripheral surface of the shank is configured to be surrounded and tightly held by a hole-wall defined by a tool-fixing hole of a machine tool. At least one coolant-guiding recess is formed in the outer peripheral surface of the shank and extends along a lengthwise direction of the shank. Each coolant-guiding recess forms a coolant channel together with the hole-wall of the tool-fixing hole. An end of the coolant channel is connected to a coolant-supply system. The coolant channel formed by the coolant-guiding recess enables coolant from the coolant-supply system to be jetted toward the cutting portion. The cutting tool provides through coolant without drilled holes, thereby saving cost.
