A drill includes a leading end portion. The leading end portion is flat and has at least two cutting blades extending from a rotation center toward outside in a radial direction. The each cutting blade includes an arc-shaped portion. An inside linear portion is formed in a linear shape and connects to one end of the arc-shaped portion on the rotation center side. An outside linear portion is formed in a linear shape and connects to another end of the arc-shaped portion on an opposite side to the one end. The arc-shaped portion has a cutting edge provided with an arc-shaped portion chamfered surface. The inside linear portion and the outside linear portion each has a cutting edge provided with a linear portion chamfered surface. A drill axis direction width of the arc-shaped portion chamfered surface is smaller than a drill axis direction width of the linear portion chamfered surface.

Rotary cutting tool with tunable vibration absorber assembly for suppressing torsional vibration

A rotary cutting tool includes a tool body including a chip flute portion having a plurality of helical chip flutes separated by lobes. In one aspect, a tunable vibration absorber assembly is disposed within a cavity formed in the chip flute portion. In another aspect, the tunable vibration absorber assembly is disposed within a cavity of a replaceable cutting head. In each aspect, the tunable vibration absorber assembly includes one or more tunable absorber masses, a resilient material between the one or more absorber masses and the cavity, and one or more connecting members for preventing relative angular displacement of the one or more tunable absorber masses. The one or more tunable absorber masses are suspended only by the resilient material, thereby enabling the tunable vibration absorber assembly to be tuned to a desired frequency for suppressing torsional vibration of the rotary cutting tool during a cutting operation.

Rotary cutting tool with internal coolant passage

A rotary cutting tool includes a replaceable cutting insert, a pocket portion for holding the cutting insert, and a chip flute portion having a plurality of helical flutes. An internal coolant passage is formed in the chip flute portion and has both a twisted geometry and a “see-through” central portion. The internal coolant passage is polygonal in cross-sectional shape having a number of cusps equal to the number of flutes. The internal coolant passage greatly increases coolant flow area, while maintaining the stiffness and rigidity of the cutting tool. A method includes forming the internal coolant passage using additive manufacturing such that the internal coolant passage has a “see-through” central portion and a twisted geometry.

Cutting tool

Cutting tool for the rotary machining of workpieces, in particular a twist drill, with a cutting tip which has at least one main cutting edge and at least one free surface (24), wherein a flank face adjoins the main cutting edge radially to the outside, and wherein a flank angle of the flank face increases in a radially outward direction.
