The dental tool includes a miniaturized RFID tag (3) which is arranged in front of the back end (2a) of the shaft (2). A dental CNC milling/grinding machine (5) is also disclosed and has a machine compartment (5a) including one or more carriage units (5b) each adapted to exchangeably receive and drive one or more dental tools (1) for machining a dental restoration from a workpiece (6); one or more transceiver units (5c) each adapted to read and/or write the miniaturized RFID tag (3) of a dental tool (1); and a control unit adapted to control the transceiver units (5c), and the carriage units (5b) based on the information read from the miniaturized RFID tags (3).

A modular cutting tool includes a cutting head, a shank and a mechanism which assists in assembling and locks the cutting head to the shank. The cutting head includes a cutting portion rotatable about a central longitudinal axis and a cylindrical skirt extending axially from the cutting portion and terminating at a contact face disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The skirt has a number of curved inner surfaces which generally define a bore disposed about the longitudinal axis. The shank includes a cylindrical portion of a first diameter disposed about the central longitudinal axis and a central protrusion disposed in the bore of the cutting portion. The central protrusion has a second diameter less than the first diameter and extends longitudinally from a contact face disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis at a leading end of the cylindrical portion.

A cutting tool includes a tool body having a peripherally disposed outer insert receiving pocket and an interiorly disposed inner insert receiving pocket with a cutting insert resiliently clamped therein. The tool body includes a through recess at least partially circumferentially bounded by a recess circumferential surface. A resilient clamping member extends into the through recess. The inner insert receiving pocket is formed by the resilient clamping member and a recess pocket portion of the recess circumferential surface. A chamfering cutting insert may be retained by the resilient clamping member, without the use of an additional, separate clamping device.

It is an object to provide a rotating tool having an excellent wear resistance. The rotating tool includes: a base member including a cutting edge portion and a flute portion; and a coating film that coats a surface of the base member, a ratio B/A of a film thickness B of the coating film coating a surface of the flute portion to a film thickness A of the coating film coating a surface of the cutting edge portion being not less than 0.8.

A rotary cutting tool. The tool has a body with outside diameter (OD), and outer surface, and a longitudinal axis, a plurality of flutes, helical in some embodiments. Flutes include a narrow leading edge land portion with circular segment profile and having flute cutting edge portions along a substantially uniform circumferential location, with an eccentric relief margin rotationally rearward of the narrow leading edge land portions. Face portions are provided with face cutting edge portions, and with a first dish portion adjacent each of the cutting edge portions sloping inwardly and downwardly generally toward a central longitudinal axis at a first dish angle alpha () Corner blend portions extend from flute cutting edge portions to the face cutting edge portions. Corner blend portions are provided in a variety of profiles, including an embodiment wherein the profile of the corner blend portions are truncated before the segment of curvature becomes tangential to the face cutting edge portions. Large core diameters of cutting tools are provided, which gives high strength when working with axial depths of cut of about three times outside tool diameter or less.

Various components of an electronic device housing and methods for their assembly are disclosed. The housing can be formed by assembling and connecting two or more different sections together. The sections of the housing may be coupled together using one or more coupling members. The coupling members may be formed using a two-shot molding process in which the first shot forms a structural portion of the coupling members, and the second shot forms cosmetic portions of the coupling members.

A cutting insert of an embodiment of the present invention includes an upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface connected to each of the upper surface and the lower surface, and an upper cutting edge located at an intersection of the upper surface and the side surface. The lower surface includes a mount part having alternately three first top portions spaced a distance a away from a central axis extending between the upper and lower surfaces and three second top portions spaced a distance b away from the central axis in a bottom view. The mount part further has a concave part including at least the central axis. The second top portions are located closer to the upper surface than the first top portions. A cutting tool with the cutting insert, and a method of manufacturing a machined product by using the cutting tool are also provided.

In one embodiment, a holder includes a body part elongated from a first end part to a second end part along a rotation axis. The body part includes a first member, a second member, and a third member. The first member is located on a side of the first end part, and includes a pocket to receive a cutting insert. The second member is located closer to the second end part than the first member, and includes at least one cavity inside the second member. The third member is located closer to the second end part than the second member.
