    Abstract: A cutting tool includes a cutting insert and a toolholder including at least one insert supporting surface. A first clamp is adapted to apply a clamping force in a first direction to clamp the insert to the insert supporting surface, and a second clamp is adapted to limit rotation of the insert about an axis extending substantially in the first direction. The toolholder includes a second insert supporting surface. The second clamp applies a clamping force to the insert in a second direction to clamp the insert to the second insert supporting surface, and the second insert supporting surface is disposed on an opposite side of the insert from the second clamp.

  • Patent number: 7494303
    Abstract: An indexable milling insert has a trigon shape and includes a mounting hole placed centrally in the milling insert, an upper side and a lower side, which sides are parallel with each other and act as an alternating first support surface and second support surface. The milling insert is furthermore provided with major cutting edges, which are oriented perpendicularly to the axis of the mounting hole as well as arranged in such a way that a turning of the milling insert around the center of the mounting hole into an alternative cutting position alternatively a flipping of the milling insert into an alternative cutting position provides an identical position of the major cutting edges in relation to a workpiece.

  • Patent number: 7478978
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tool head preferably for milling. The tool head is connectable to a toolholder. The tool head includes a cutting portion and a mounting portion. The mounting portion includes an axial stop surface and a radial stop surface. Dimensions and tolerances of the axial stop surface and the radial stop surface are selected such that the axial stop surface will abut an axial stop on the toolholder to prevent axial movement of the toolholder relative to the tool head beyond the axial stop surface and the radial stop surface will be disposed proximate a radial stop of the toolholder to limit radial movement of the tool head relative to the toolholder when an integral fastening portion of the tool head and an integral fastening portion of the toolholder are fastened directly to one another and the axial stop surface and the axial stop abut.

  • Patent number: 7455483
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an indexable milling insert and a milling tool for chip removing machining. The milling insert is intended to be able to mill substantially perpendicular corners in a work piece. The milling insert comprises an upper side, a lower side and edge surfaces extending therebetween. The upper side and the lower side are substantially identical. An imaginary circle inscribed in the milling insert touches the milling insert periphery in four to six points. Lines of intersection between the edge surfaces and the sides form relative to each other substantially perpendicular main cutting edges and minor cutting edges. Each of the sides includes a support surface, each of which being provided in a plane. Each minor cutting edge projects from the plane of the associated support surface. Each major cutting edge intersects the plane of the associated support surface.

  • Patent number: 7341409
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tool and a male part for chip removing machining. The tool includes a male part and a holder for the male part. The male part includes a radial and axial supporting and positioning portion and a threaded portion. A largest diameter of the externally threaded portion is smaller than a smallest diameter of the radially and axially supporting and positioning portion. A transition portion is disposed along the axis of the male part between a radially largest portion of the radially and axially supporting and positioning portion and the externally threaded portion.
