  • Publication number: 20220072627
    Abstract: Tool holder comprising a tool receptacle, a machine interface, and a sensor receptacle. The tool receptacle is configured to releasably receive a tool having at least one cutting edge for machining a workpiece. The machine interface is configured to enable the tool holder to be fastened to a machine tool. In the sensor receptacle, a sensor is arranged that is configured to generate a measurement signal that is dependent on a force acting on the tool holder The sensor receptacle is spaced apart from both the tool receptacle and the machine interface, so that the sensor is neither in direct contact with the tool nor in direct contact with the machine tool when the tool is accommodated in the tool receptacle and the tool holder is fastened to the machine tool.

  • Patent number: 10751814
    Abstract: A cutting insert, an associated tool holder, and a tool comprising such a cutting insert and such a tool holder. The cutting insert has a base body, which defines a cutting insert longitudinal axis, at least one cutting body, which laterally projects from a periphery of the base body and comprises a cutting edge, and a cutting insert bore, which is provided in the base body and extends along the cutting insert longitudinal axis, wherein on an underside, running transversely to the cutting insert longitudinal axis, of the base body are provided a plurality of elevations, which are arranged distributed in the peripheral direction and protrude from the underside of the base body, so that, between respectively two adjacent elevations, a relative depression is respectively obtained, wherein the cutting insert comprises at least one radial contact surface, a plurality of axial contact surfaces and a plurality of torque transfer surfaces for a bearing contact of the cutting insert against the tool holder.
