Tool holder comprising a tool receptacle, a machine interface, and a sensor receptacle. The tool receptacle is configured to releasably receive a tool having at least one cutting edge for machining a workpiece. The machine interface is configured to enable the tool holder to be fastened to a machine tool. In the sensor receptacle, a sensor is arranged that is configured to generate a measurement signal that is dependent on a force acting on the tool holder The sensor receptacle is spaced apart from both the tool receptacle and the machine interface, so that the sensor is neither in direct contact with the tool nor in direct contact with the machine tool when the tool is accommodated in the tool receptacle and the tool holder is fastened to the machine tool.

A cutting tool may include a flow path and a sealing part. The flow path may include an inflow port and an outflow port. The sealing part may be located continuously with the flow path and may include a male screw and a female screw. Screw threads in the male screw may include a first screw thread. Screw grooves in the female screw may include a first screw groove. A top portion of the first screw thread may be in contact with a bottom portion of the first screw groove.

There is provided a drill tool assembly for drilling metallic or other materials, comprising a holder having a mounting slot in which a cutting insert is positioned, and a through tool coolant supply system. The drilling tool system allows for the application of coolant to the rake surfaces of the cutting insert in a manner which facilitates enabling higher penetration rates while maintaining integrity of the cutting edges of the cutting insert. The drilling tool system comprises a holder having a rotational axis and mounting slot. A cutting insert with sides positioned adjacent the side surfaces of the mounting slot and cutting edges extending from the rotational axis is mounted in the slot. The insert includes rake surfaces adjacent the cutting edges that are positioned above the mounting slot. At least one coolant channel is disposed with at least one coolant outlet directed at the sides of the insert at a position below the rake surfaces. The coolant outlet is configured to disperse coolant in a curtain across the entire rake face of each cutting edge.

A reducing sleeve for fastening a machining tool in a tool holder is described. Said reducing sleeve comprises a reducing sleeve body, which comprises a first tool-side end and a second tool holder-side end. In addition, at least one coolant supply channel is provided in the reducing sleeve body. Furthermore, a multifunctional interface is arranged at the second end and is designed for coupling to a sealing unit and a safety unit. Additionally presented is a modular system for providing a reducing sleeve assembly, which comprises such a reducing sleeve, a sealing unit, and a safety unit. In addition, a machining assembly with a tool holder, a reducing sleeve, and a machining tool is presented.

A cutting tool, in particular for machining metal, is described. It comprises a tool main body that has at least one interface for receiving a cutting insert that can be attached to the tool main body. At least one cooling duct is provided in the tool main body and has, at its end on the interface side, an outlet section with an elongate outlet cross-section on the interface side. The tool main body is manufactured at least in sections by means of a generative manufacturing process. A method for manufacturing such a cutting tool is also presented.

A support assembly for a core drill which utilizes an improved high strength spoked reinforcer. The reinforcer may be removably mounted a core drill tube by fasteners. A drive connection is removably mounted and centrally located on an outer disc of a pair of discs. The drive connection is adapted to connect with a drive shaft to cause rotation of the tube. The assembly can also include a split in the disc when the high strength spoked reinforcer is not welded thereto, thereby providing a means of water control. The high strength spoked reinforcer can be a separate piece that is bolted to the disc or can be integrally formed as one piece therewith.

A tool holder has a base element, a deformable receiver for clamping a tool and at least one locking element configured for preventing an axial extraction of the tool from the tool holder through engaging a corresponding opposite element at the tool. The at least one locking element is integrally configured in one piece with the receiver.

A rotary cutting tool includes a main body, a shank portion having a rearward end, and a flute portion having a forward end with one or more flanks. One or more connecting fluid holes are in fluid communication with a central fluid hole and terminates at a flank at the forward end of the cutting tool. One or more twisted fluid holes extend through a lobe in the flute portion and terminates at a flank at the forward end of the cutting tool. A cross-sectional shape of the connecting fluid holes and the twisted fluid holes is selected to provide enhanced delivery of fluid to the cutting edge. In one aspect, the rotary cutting tool is a modular drill and the flute portion has a pocket for holding a replaceable cutting insert.

A cemented carbide cutting tool having WC and a low amount of binder phase can be used when machining Ti, Ti-alloys and Ni-based alloys under cryogenic conditions, leading to a significantly prolonged tool life.

A cutting insert for a tool for machining a workpiece. The cutting insert comprises a rake face with a chip shaping geometry which is particularly suitable for machining titanium and titanium alloys. The chip shaping geometry is designed in such a way that the chip lifted from the workpiece is deformed comparatively strongly about its longitudinal axis. The chip shaping geometry is arranged at least in a rear area of the rake face, which is laterally bounded by a first concavely curved portion and a second concavely curved portion of the minor cutting edges of the cutting insert. The chip shaping geometry projects upwardly beyond a cutting plane in which the main cutting edge of the cutting insert and two rectilinear portions of the two minor cutting edges are arranged and comprises at least two elevations so that the rake face in the rear area in a further cross-section parallel to the main cutting edge comprises two high points and an intermediate second low point which has an equal third distance from the first concavely curved portion and the second concavely curved portion. A rake angle along the main cutting edge varies such that the rake angle γ1 at a center of the main cutting edge, which has an equal second distance from a first end and a second end of the main cutting edge, is greater than the rake angle in the area of the first and/or second ends.
