  • Publication number: 20240058871
    Abstract: A turning method for a CNC-lathe includes providing a metal work piece and a turning tool having a coupling portion, a first cutting element having a first cutting edge and a second cutting element having a second nose cutting edge separating and connecting a second forward cutting edge and a second rearward cutting edge. The method includes moving the turning tool in a first direction such that the first cutting edge is in cut, moving the turning tool in a direction such that the first cutting edge is moved away from the metal work piece and the second nose cutting edge is moved towards the metal work piece, and moving the turning tool in a second direction such that the second forward cutting edge is in cut at a second entering angle, which is 5-45°, the second direction being in the opposite direction to the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20240051036
    Abstract: A turning tool includes a coupling portion extending along a coupling or longitudinal axis, a first cutting element having a first cutting edge, and a second cutting element having a second nose cutting edge separating and connecting a second forward cutting edge and a second rearward cutting edge. The first cutting element includes a first top surface and the second cutting element includes a second top surface. The first and second cutting elements intersect an imaginary circle or cylinder having a center axis perpendicular to the coupling axis. The first cutting element is inclined in relation to the second cutting element by an inclination angle, which is measured around the center axis of the imaginary circle. The second top surface faces in a direction, which is perpendicular to or substantially perpendicular to the coupling axis and perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the center axis of the imaginary circle or cylinder.

  • Publication number: 20240051034
    Abstract: A turning tool includes a coupling portion, which extends along a coupling axis, the coupling axis defining a longitudinal axis of the turning tool. The turning tool includes a first cutting element and a second cutting element, wherein the first cutting element has a first cutting edge. The second cutting element has a second nose cutting edge separating and connecting a second forward cutting edge and a second rearward cutting edge. The first cutting element includes a first top surface, and the second cutting element includes a second top surface. A first top surface and the second top surface face in the same or substantially the same direction.

  • Publication number: 20240051035
    Abstract: A turning tool includes a coupling portion, which extends along a coupling axis defining a longitudinal axis of the turning tool, and a first and a second cutting element. The first cutting element has a first cutting edge and the second cutting element has a second cutting edge, which separates and connects a second forward cutting edge and a second rearward cutting edge. The first cutting element has a first top surface and the second cutting element has a second top surface. The first and second cutting elements intersect an imaginary circle or cylinder having a center axis thereof parallel to or coinciding with the coupling axis. The first cutting element is inclined in relation to the second cutting element by an inclination angle, which is measured around the center axis of the imaginary circle. The first top surface faces in a direction which is perpendicular to the coupling axis.

  • Patent number: 11590580
    Abstract: A turning tool includes a tool body and a turning insert, and an insert seat in which the turning insert is mounted. The insert seat includes a bottom surface and a side surface, the side surface having a first surface and a second surface. The first surface includes a contact surface, wherein the contact surface is in contact with a portion of the side surface of the turning insert. The tool body includes a coolant channel, which extends between a coolant channel inlet and a coolant channel outlet opening into a void between the side surface of the turning insert and the first surface of the side surface of the insert seat.
