Abstract: A cutting insert wherein, in particular an indexable cutting insert for machining predominantly metal materials, comprising a first surface that acts as a contact surface for a chuck tool and a depression in the first surface in the cutting corner region and along the cutting edges, said depression acting as a swarf surface. To reinforce and stabilize the cutting edge, the first swarf surface border or the second swarf surface border has or have one or more interruptions in the form of ribs surface, said ribs lying on the same plane as the second surface.

Abstract: A cutting insert, that is chucked in carrier tools, comprising an upper and lower face, a cutting corner with a corner radius being located on each upper and lower face, a cutting corner with a corner radius being located on each upper and lower face, between a primary cutting edge and a secondary cutting edge. To reinforce the cutting corner, which is at risk from damage during insertion, while maintaining the corner radius in relation to a cutting insert according to prior art, a stabilizing facet is provided in the cutting corner adjacent to the corner radius.
