摘要:
A method of removing material in a threading operation from a workpiece comprising a ferrous alloy having a hardness between about 50 Rockwell C and about 65 Rockwell C using an uncoated cutting tool, the process comprising: providing an uncoated cutting tool having body containing a pocket where a superhard blank is brazed using a braze alloy into the pocket to form a braze joint wherein the braze alloy having a liquidus temperature of at least about 900 degrees Centigrade wherein the braze alloy is selected from the group comprising a nickel-gold braze alloy containing nickel and gold, a copper-gold braze alloy containing copper and gold, a gold-copper-nickel braze alloy contains gold and copper and nickel, a silver-titanium-copper braze alloy containing silver and titanium and copper, and a silver-palladium braze alloy containing silver and palladium; and engaging the workpiece with the uncoated cutting tool on multiple passes wherein each pass removes a volume of material substantially equal to or less than the volume of material removed from the workpiece in the previous pass.

A toolholder (10) for use in a metalworking operation, with a body (105) extending along a longitudinal axis (110) and a recess (120) extending within the first end (115) of the body. Adjacent an insert pocket (125) adapted to receive a cutting insert (130) in the recess (120) is at least one wall (135) with a portion having a surface with multiple interruptions (142) to form a chip ejection segment (145). The chip ejection segment (145) may be an integral part of the toolholder body (105) or may be a discrete piece removably attached to the toolholder body. A method of imparting to a toolholder (100) such a chip ejection segment (145) is also disclosed.

End mill cutter having a plurality of cutting edges (6) distributed over the circumference of the mill cutter, characterized by a flank (11) which is adjacent to the respective cutting edge (6) in the circumferential direction (10) and a supporting surface (12) which adjoins the flank (11) on that side which faces away from the cutting edge (6) in the circumferential direction (10).

A tool holder (10, 10') includes a body (12, 112), a cutting head (14, 114) having a cutting end portion (38, 138) and a tapered end portion (42, 142), a retention knob (16, 116) located at the tapered end portion of the cutting head, and a ball clamping mechanism (20, 120) received in an aperture (34, 134) of the body. The ball clamping mechanism includes an upper clamp (22, 122), a lower clamp (24, 124), and a double-ended clamp screw threaded (26, 126) onto the upper and lower clamps. Rotation of the clamp screw in a one direction causes the upper clamp and the lower clamp to move toward each other and engage the retention knob to place the tool holder in a locked position, and rotation of the clamp screw in an opposite direction causes the upper clamp and the lower clamp to move away from each other such that the upper and lower clamps no longer engage the retention knob to place the tool holder in a unlocked position.
摘要:
A twist drill has double margins and a chisel edge angle of between 80 degrees and 100 degrees to maximize hole straightness and to minimize 'walking' of the drill upon a workpiece. The drill may be modular having a removable tip body or the drill may be of a solid configuration. A tip body is consumable and may be removed and replaced as required.

A rotatable cutting tool has an elongate cutting tool body, which has an axial rearward end and an axial forward end, which has a socket therein. A hard cutting member affixes to the cutting tool body within the socket. The hard cutting member has an axial forward end with a superhard axial forward portion, which has a maximum transverse dimension. The hard cutting member further has a hard axial rearward portion, which has a maximum transverse dimension. The ratio of the maximum transverse dimension of the superhard axial forward portion to the maximum transverse dimension of the hard axial rearward portion ranges between about.35 and about.45.
摘要:
A cutting tool having an outer surface with a plurality of inserts connected to a distinct pocket extending generally radially on the outer surface. The cutting inserts are arranged in a helical array on the outer surface in a manner that at least one cutting edge of each cutting insert is spaced in an angular circumferential direction from the pocket of the next adjacent cutting insert. The spacing of the inserts is such that a distinct point on the each one of the one or more cutting edges define part of a layout line having a non-uniform slope.
