A cutting tool assembly includes a tool body and a tool holder including a longitudinal axis around which the tool holder is configured to spin. The tool holder includes a central portion connected to the tool body comprising a fastener hole perpendicular with the longitudinal axis and configured to receive a securing fastener, wherein the fastener hole is offset from the longitudinal axis. The tool holder further includes an eccentric drive member connected to the cylindrical portion. The tool holder can optionally further include an end alignment cylinder connected to the eccentric drive member.

Tool holder for a tool for machining workpieces, with a tool holder body, which defines a longitudinal axis, on which a tool mount for securing a tool is formed and on which a tool holder interface for fixating the tool holder to a holder shaft is formed, wherein the tool holder interface comprises: a tool holder plane surface oriented transversely to the longitudinal axis, against which a holder shaft plane surface can abut to establish a defined relative position in longitudinal direction between the tool mount and the holder shaft, a tool holder cone section, which is polygonal in a cross-section and which can engage with a correspondingly polygonal holder shaft cone section to establish a defined relative position in tangential direction between the tool mount and the holder shaft, and a tool holder cylinder section which can act together with a corresponding holder shaft cylinder section.

A cutting tool includes: a base metal provided with a seat portion; a blade edge member that is a polycrystalline diamond sintered material containing polycrystalline diamond and a binder; and a brazing material that fixes the blade edge member to the seat portion of the base metal. The blade edge member has a thickness of greater than or equal to 0.3 mm. The brazing material is disposed between a blade edge bottom face of the blade edge member and a seat bottom face of the seat portion and is in contact with the blade edge bottom face and the seat bottom face. The flank face is located outside of the base metal with respect to the lateral face of the base metal.

A system is proposed that is made up of a tool holder 1, a collet 15 with a clamping nut 19, and a tool insert 27, in which the collet 15 and the tool insert are fixed and positioned on various function surfaces within the tool holder 1. Nevertheless, the clamping means are the same, namely a thread on the tool holder 1.

An assembly for tightening and securing includes a first male part and a second female part fitted together, which have complementary forms. The fitting includes at least one contact surface of the first part with the second part. The assembly also includes at least one annular means mounted on the periphery of one of the two parts. The annular means is connected in a translational manner to the part on which the annular means is mounted when the annular means abuts with the part on which the means is mounted, and arranged to interact with a peripheral surface of the complementary part during a rotation of the annular means in relation to the complementary part.

A polygon machining method whereby first polygon machining using a polygon cutter is carried out on a workpiece, followed by machining using tools other than the polygon cutter, then second polygon machining using the polygon cutter again. The polygon machining method comprises: a first polygon machining step in which a main axis and a tool main axis are synchronously rotated such that the rotation speed of the main axis and the tool main axis are at a ratio required for the first polygon machining, and polygon machining is carried out; a machining step in which the ratio is changed to a second synchronization ratio such that the main axis rotates at a rotation speed required for machining after the first polygon machining, the main axis and the tool main axis are synchronously rotated, and machining is carried out on the workpiece that has received the first polygon machining; and a second polygon machining step in which the main axis and the tool main axis are synchronously rotated such that the rotation speed of the main axis and the tool main axis are at a ratio required for the second polygon machining, and polygon machining is carried out.

A tool holder includes a collet configured to be clamped to the shank of a tool and a pull-out protection element configured to secure the tool against being pulled out of the collet. The pull-out protection further includes a protection element such that pull-out forces acting on the tool are transmitted to the collet. The protection element is mounted so as to be moveable relative to the collet and has a wedge-shaped configuration as well as force-transmission surface. When the protection element is in a radially inner engaged position with the tool, the protection element is configured to be clamped to the cool and the collet so as to be self locking.

A coupling arrangement for a tool, the coupling arrangement comprising a drive part rotatable about a rotation axis, the drive part comprising a drive profile; a driven part rotatable about the rotation axis, the driven part comprising a driven profile complementary to the drive profile, the driven profile being arranged to mate with the drive profile in a coupled position for torque transfer between the drive part and the driven part; and an aligning arrangement arranged to force a relative rotation between the drive part and the driven part about the rotation axis from a nonaligned state of the coupling arrangement, where the drive profile is not rotationally aligned with the driven profile, towards an aligned state of the coupling arrangement, where the drive profile is rotationally aligned with the driven profile.
