Abstract:
This cutting insert is provided with a lower surface of polygonal shape including side parts and a pair of corner parts, an upper surface, a lateral surface situated between the lower surface and the upper surface, a pair of corner cutting edges located at the pair of corners, and a main cutting edge located in a side portion. The main cutting edge is upwardly convex in shape, and in side view includes an upwardly convex curving portion, and a pair of linear portions respectively extending toward the pair of corner cutting edges from the curving portion. The top portion of the curving portion is positioned more toward the one of the corner cutting edges which, of the pair of corner cutting edges, is that contiguous to a working surface of a work material during cutting of the work material.
Abstract:
In a rotary cutting tool used for milling operations, a reversible cutting insert is removably secured in a cutting body. The cutting insert has two opposing end surfaces interconnected by a continuous peripheral surface, which includes three side surfaces alternating with three corner surfaces. The side and corner surfaces intersect with both end surfaces at side and corner edges, respectively, with each side edge having a major cutting edge, and each corner edge having a corner and minor cutting edge. Each minor cutting edge has a projected minor cutting length, in an end view, and each associated minor relief surface has a minor relief width between two lateral boundary points contained in a horizontal plane, varying with an offset distance between the horizontal plane and a median plane. Each projected minor cutting length is greater than the maximum minor relief width of its associated minor relief surface.
Abstract:
A family of rotating cutting tools includes at least two toolholders having different diameters, each toolholder including a first side and a second side, the first side and the second side being substantially perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the toolholder, and at least one insert abutment surface on each of the first side and the second side. For each toolholder, the insert abutment surfaces on the first and second sides define an angle with a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the toolholder, and the angle defined by the insert abutment surfaces and the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the toolholder is different for the at least two toolholders having different diameters.
Abstract:
A cutting insert has a substantially polygonal shape, and a groove formed in a corner portion of one polygonal surface, and at an intersecting portion between a leading cutting edge and a peripheral cutting edge formed at intersecting portions of side surfaces adjacent to each other across the corner portion, a minor cutting edge is formed. Of the groove, in an area associated with the leading cutting edge and the minor cutting edge, a rake face including a downward inclined surface is formed. A first angle between a direction of maximum inclination of the downward inclined surface and the leading cutting edge is larger than a second angle between the direction of maximum inclination and the minor cutting edge.
Abstract:
A cutting insert has an approximately polygonal plate shape with a cutting edge formed on a intersection portion between a rake face and a flank. A chip breaker is formed on the rake face, and a chip-breaker concave portion is defined by an inclined surface which is curved in a concave manner and which is smoothly connected to the bottom surface portion while being gradually inclined toward the bottom surface portion, from a peripheral edge portion on a nose portion side to a bottom surface portion.
Abstract:
A double-sided cutting insert with a plurality of indexable convex cutting edges can have a top face and a bottom face, at least three convex cutting edges on each face connected by at least three nose corners, at least three peripheral side surfaces extending from each face toward a virtual middle plane; and a common lateral seating surface on each peripheral side surface. Each convex cutting edge can have at least a curved cutting edge region, and can further have a primary substantially straight cutting edge region intermediate the curved cutting edge region and the nose corner. Each peripheral side surface can further have a primary planar facet associated with the primary substantially straight cutting edge, and each face may also be single-handed in same direction.
Abstract:
An improved design of a cutting insert system includes a plurality of indexable peripheral milling cutting inserts adapted to be mounted on a peripheral milling tool holder. Each of the cutting inserts includes an insert width that is the same for each cutting insert. Each of the cutting inserts also includes a corner nose having a corner nose radius dimension that is different for each cutting insert, and an axial alignment clearance face that defines an equivalent face location and an equivalent clearance angle for each of the plurality of cutting inserts when the insert is detachably mounted on the tool holder.
Abstract:
1. The throwaway tip characterized that the shape is approximately square type plate late, and the corner angle of the another two corner tooth which adjoins each other of one face is made as 90° or less, and the other two corner edge which counters respectively is made as non parallel cutting tooth.2. The throwaway type cutting tool characterized that two or more throwaway tip is the same as the throwaway tip of claim 1, and the throwaway tips are arranged so that the other two corner tooth projects respectively to a perimeter side of a tip of a main part of a tool, in a throwaway type cutting tool that the two or more throwaway tips are arranged so that the tip is projected respectively to a tip side of a main part of a tool.
Abstract:
A tangential cutting insert has three pairs of surfaces. A first pair has upper and lower surfaces, a second pair has front and rear surfaces, and a third pair has two side surfaces. The upper and lower surfaces and the side surfaces extend between the front and rear surfaces. A main cutting edge is formed at the intersection of the front surface with the upper surface. A front portion of the upper surface extends rearwardly from the main cutting edge and upwardly toward a central portion of the upper surface as seen in a side view of the cutting insert. The main cutting edge associated with the upper surface is curved and slopes downwardly toward each of the auxiliary cutting edges as seen in a front view of the cutting insert.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a cutting insert with a rake face, a seating surface and a plurality of flank faces extending between the rake face and the seating surface. The intersection of the rake face and the plurality of flank faces define a plurality of cutting edges. The rake face of the insert has a plurality of corner regions formed at the intersection of side cutting edges to define corner cutting edges. The corner cutting edge in at least one corner region has a recessed profile when viewed from the side of the insert. The recessed profile has a concave shape and extends inwardly from the cutting edge. At the cutting edge, the recess has a conical shape to define a conical portion and further inward from the cutting edge the recess may have a cylindrical shape to define a cylindrical portion.
