Abstract: A boring tool has a cutting insert, a holder, and a pressing member. The cutting insert includes a base member and a cutting member. The base member includes a first side surface, a second side surface, a third side surface, and a fourth side surface. The holder includes a front end surface, a rear end surface, and an outer peripheral surface. The holder is provided with a first hole and a second hole. The first hole is opened in the front end surface. The second hole is opened in the outer peripheral surface. The holder includes a stopper. A surface defining the second hole includes a first inner side surface and a second inner side surface. The pressing member is in contact with the fourth side surface in a state in which the pressing member is disposed in the first hole.

Abstract: In accordance with various illustrative embodiments of the present disclosure, a rotationally symmetric surface of a workpiece is machined by a turning apparatus, wherein the workpiece is rotationally driven around a rotational axis, a cutting tool with a cutting edge positioned at the edge of a rake face is arranged relative to the workpiece, the cutting tool is brought into contact with the workpiece, and the cutting tool is advanced relative to the workpiece along a feed direction parallel to the rotational axis, the normal to the rake face being tilted relative to the feed direction, a first axis and a second axis, the first axis and the second axis are perpendicular to the feed direction and perpendicular to each other.
