The shank (34) having a first shank portion (36) engaging a threaded bore (44) in the basic body (8). The adjusting sleeve (20) is displaceable by the adjusting screw (32) and has a conical outer face (30) that interacts with an inner face (28) of the annular portion (12) in such a way that, when the adjusting screw (32) is being screwed into the threaded bore (44), the annular portion (12) is spread open by the adjusting sleeve (20).

Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting tool for a machine tool, comprising a cutting head (1), a shaft (2), and a coupling which removably fixes the cutting head (1) to the shaft (2), said coupling comprising a coupling pin (6) on the back of the cutting head (7) and a receptacle (5) in the shaft (2), which receptacle is complementary to the coupling pin (6) and accommodates the coupling pin (6) when the coupling is closed, comprising a central coolant channel (20) in the shaft (2), which separates into two sub-channels (12) in the region of the receptacle (5), the two sub-channels (12) flanking the receptacle (5) in the wall thereof and opening into the flat contact surface (10) annularly surrounding the opening edge (8) of the receptacle (5), and comprising a flat collar (16) on the back of the cutting head (7) having an annular distribution groove (15). The tool also comprises at least one coolant hole (19) connecting the cutting edges (14) on the cutting head (1) to the distribution groove (15).

Abstract: The invention relates to a cassette for a milling cutter having a cutter carrier and a clamping part, which together constitute a generally rectangular cassette, the cutter carrier and the clamping part being loosely placed on each other and together delimiting a fastening opening for a fastening screw by means of which the cassette can be fastened in a receiver of a milling cutter, the cutter carrier having a seat for a cutting insert. The invention additionally relates to a milling cutter having at least one receiver for a cassette and having at least one such cassette. A gap, S, between the cutter carrier and the clamping part is located below the cutting tip of the cutting insert to prevent chips from being lodged in the gap, S.

Abstract: An expandable reamer includes a shank portion, a cutting portion extending from the shank portion, and a tapered pin capable of being at least partially received in the cutting portion. The cutting portion includes a plurality of blades separated by flutes, and a tapered inner surface with threads. The tapered pin includes a tapered outer surface with threads and causes expansion or contraction of the cutting portion when the tapered pin is screwed or unscrewed into the cutting portion. In one embodiment, a coolant channel extends from a coolant cavity through a wall of the cutting portion to provide fluid to the blades during machining of through-holes. In another embodiment, the tapered pin includes a coolant passage in fluid communication with the coolant cavity to provide fluid to the blades during machining of blind holes.
