Patent number: 10493535Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cutting insert. The cutting insert according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure has a dot formed between a main cutting edge and a chip breaker, and the dot has a bridge formed between the main cutting edges. Therefore, a chip, which is produced during a cutting process, may come into contact with three points on a main cutting edge land portion, the bridge, and the dot. The chip may discharge heat generated from the cutting insert while the chip comes into contact with the three points.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2016Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: KORLOY INCInventors: Dong Sub An, Sung Hun Kim, Hyo San Kim, Sang Ho Lim, Young Heum Kim
