Abstract: An internal milling cutter includes a carrier disk having a centre axis defining an axis of rotation of the milling cutter, a plurality of separated tool holder segments removably mounted at the inner circumference of the carrier disk, and at least one clamp for each tool holder segment mounted either on the carrier disk or on the tool holder segment. Each of the tool holder segments at its inner circumference includes at least one cutting insert seat with a mounting element for a cutting insert or at least one cutting edge. The clamp is located and arranged such that it generates a force in the axial direction pressing the axial contact surface of the tool holder segment onto the axial abutment surface of the carrier disk, and the clamp is mounted movably in a radial direction of the carrier disk between a locking position and a releasing position.

Abstract: A cutter insert for disc-milling cutters, in particular, for milling crankshafts. The insert has upper and lower surfaces and circumferential lateral surfaces, which connect the upper and lower surfaces to one another. The insert includes raised swellings and/or projections on the upper surface, at least in the region of two corners, which preferably extend over the entire length of one side of the cutter insert, so that, in a view perpendicularly toward a cutting face formed by at least one of the lateral surfaces, the edge which defines the transition from the upper surface to the cutting face, has a portion projecting relative to the central edge section in the region of each of the two ends of this edge.
