A blade positioning structure of a disposable milling cutter includes a cutter body and a disposable blade. The cutter body is peripherally provided with a blade seat. By passing a screw through the disposable blade and the blade seat, the disposable blade is locked to the blade seat. The blade seat has a blade seat surface and a sidewall; the blade seat surface has a groove; the disposable blade has a bottom surface provided with a projection corresponding in shape to the groove; and when the disposable blade is locked to the blade seat, the blade seat surface and the groove of the latter lie respectively and tightly against the bottom surface and the projection of the former.

Tool for machining a workpiece having a cutting insert with at least one cutting edge. Moreover, the tool has a tool holder, which extends along a holder longitudinal axis and has at a workpiece-side end a cutting insert receptacle for receiving the cutting insert, the cutting insert receptacle having an upper clamping finger and a lower clamping jaw. Furthermore, the tool has a wedge-shaped clamping element, which is fastenable in the cutting insert receptacle for wedging the cutting insert in the tool holder. In addition, the tool comprises a fastening element for fastening the clamping element in the cutting insert receptacle and for wedging the cutting insert in the tool holder.

Disclosed is a tool that may be configured for performing work on a workpiece. Embodiments of the tool can be configured as a body to be used with a rotatable drive. Some embodiments can include an insert that may be secured within a chamber portion of the tool. The insert may be configured to perform a certain type of work. Some embodiments can include a port. The port may facilitate ingress to and/or egress from the chamber portion. The port may allow for interchangeability of inserts. The port may allow for discharge of work by-product.

The invention relates to a method for machining a toothing that is chamfered on a tooth head front edge, in which a material projection resulting on said tooth head front edge chamfer, caused by chamfer formation on a tooth front edge of the toothing by means of plastic deformation, and/or caused by removing a primary/secondary burr produced on said end face during production of the toothing and, if applicable, formation of the tooth front edge chamfer, is removed in a rotational operation by a machining procedure with a machining tool that has a cutting edge.

A tool holder including a tool shank and a tool head connected to the tool shank. The tool head comprising an insert seat or a blade pocket. Adjacent to at least a portion of a shank side surface there is a reinforcement portion connecting the shank side surface and the tool head.

The proposed technology relates to an indexable cutting insert (10) for a cutting tool. The cutting insert (10) comprises: a first side surface (12) and an opposing second side surface (14), and a peripheral surface (16) extending between the first side surface (12) and the second side surface (14). The cutting portion (18) comprises a first cutting face (24) and an opposing second cutting face (26), a flank face (28) extending between the first cutting face (24) and the second cutting face (26), a first cutting edge (20) between the first cutting face (24) and the flank face (28), and a second cutting edge (22) between the second cutting face (26) and the flank face (28). The cutting portion (18) is bisected by a first plane (AA′) transverse to the first side surface (12) and the cutting portion (18) has a biconcave cross-section transverse to the first plane (AA′).

An apparatus for the orbital cutting and calibration of tubes is provided. The apparatus has a rotor having a central hole through which a tube to be cut is movable along its longitudinal axis, the rotor being drivable to rotate about a first axis of rotation coinciding in use with the longitudinal axis of the tube that is supplied to the apparatus. The apparatus has a cutting device having a first support body mounted radially movable on the rotor and a cutting tool carried by the first support body, and a calibration device having a second support body mounted to be radially movable on the rotor and a calibration tool carried by the second support body.

A cutting tool includes a holder and a cutting insert releasably clamped in the holder. The holder has a rear pocket surface which includes a pocket abutment surface and an adjacent pocket wedge surface. The cutting insert has at least one abutment surface and an adjacent wedge surface. When the cutting tool is assembled but not in use, the pocket abutment surface of the holder abuts the abutment surface of the cutting insert, and the wedge surface of the holder is facing and spaced apart from the wedge surface of the cutting insert. During cutting operations, the wedge surface of the insert may abut against the wedge surface of the holder.
