The present invention provides an arbor damping device, including a rod body, a damper, two flexible absorbers and at least one flexible damping adjusting member. The rod body has an internal chamber, and the internal chamber includes a circumferential wall and two end walls. The damper is received in the internal chamber. The damper includes a side surface opposite to the circumferential wall and two end surfaces respectively opposite to the two end walls. The two flexible absorbers are disposed between the two end walls and the two end surfaces respectively. The at least one flexible damping adjusting member is radially disposed between the circumferential wall and the side surface, and axially disposed between the end walls and the two flexible absorbers.

A metal cutting milling tool includes a body having a front end, a plurality of land portions extending axially rearwards from the front end, and a plurality of chip rooms extending axially rearwards from the front end. Each chip room is positioned between two adjacent land portions and each land portion is delimited by a leading and a trailing surface. Each land portion as part of the leading surface in a radially outer and forward region, includes an insert seat for receiving a cutting insert. At the front end of the milling tool, in a plane perpendicular to the central axis, an angle between a radius intersecting a radially outer point in the insert seat of a first land portion and a radius intersecting a corresponding point in the insert seat of a second land portion defines a seat pitch angle for the first land portion.

An indexable rotary cutting tool comprising, a twist angle of the outer peripheral cutting edge having a positive value, an axial rake angle of the cutting edge of the corner R at a boundary point between the cutting edge of the corner R and the outer peripheral cutting edge has a positive value, the axial rake angle of the cutting edge of the corner R at the reference point has a negative value, at least the radial rake angle in a region between the boundary point and the reference point in an entire edge length region of the cutting edge of the corner R has a negative value, and the radial rake angle of the cutting edge of the corner R at the reference point is smaller than the radial rake angle of the cutting edge of the corner at the boundary point.

An anti-vibration damper for tools for machining of metallic work pieces is provided. For improving the damping in order to be more effective under rough includes a vibration damping device received in a hollow cylindrical space of a tool member. The vibration damping device includes a plurality of rotationally symmetrical stacked on top of each other to form a stack. A part of mutually facing upper and lower surfaces of adjacent members is spaced at a distance from each other by elastically deformable elements. The outer diameter of the stack is smaller than the inner diameter of the hollow cylindrical space of the tool member, thereby providing a cylindrical gap, which is substantially filled with spherical balls, wherein clear gap width between the inner diameter of the hollow cylindrical space and the common outer diameter of the stack deviates from any integer sum of the ball diameters.

A rotary cutting tool has a central, longitudinal axis. One or more internal balancing features are disposed within a cavity of the rotary cutting tool. Each internal balancing feature includes a balancing mass suspended within the cavity by a spring-like element, and an adjusting screw for effecting radial movement of the balancing mass. Each internal balancing feature can be integrally-formed with the rotary cutting tool using a 3-D printing technique. The rotary cutting tool can be any rotary cutting tool, such as a milling cutter, a boring bar, and the like. The internal balancing features are arranged at predetermined locations within the rotary cutting tool to enable static and/or dynamic balancing of the rotary cutting tool.

A movable axial element for a damping system includes a rectilinear absorbent mass positionable in the housing and having at least one annular groove arranged on a periphery of the absorbent mass and in which at least one elastic element is arranged to bear against an internal wall of the housing. The at least one groove includes a base formed by a shoulder of the absorbent mass. An edge formed by a structure bearing an annular lip is mounted in a sliding manner on at least one part of the shoulder along at least one axis of the movable element to form an adjusting device integrated into the movable element to enable the control of a prestressing exerted by the annular lip on the elastic element mounted on the periphery of the absorbent mass, the prestressing being generated without rotation of the annular lip relative to elastic element.

A cutter holder has a body and a damping assembly. The damping assembly is contained inside the body. The damping assembly has a central damping pole and six auxiliary damping poles. The six auxiliary damping poles are arranged around the central damping pole. The body has a specific weight. The central damping pole has a specific weight larger than the specific weight of the body. Each one of the six auxiliary damping poles has a specific weight larger than the specific weight of the body. The damping assembly is utilized to reduce vibrations caused by machining.

A tool damper for a machine tool, such as a milling machine, is arranged around the tool stem of the machine or the tool holder of the machine and arranged to damper vibrations of the tool.

A tool arrangement containing a tool holder and a tool having a tool head for processing workpieces and a shaft supporting the tool head, wherein the tool holder and the shaft each have a planar surface oriented transversely with respect to the axial direction of the tool holder and the shaft, the planar surfaces lying opposite one another. The tool holder and the shaft are connected non-rotatably and releasably to one another by a connecting mechanism which has a journal projecting in the axial direction and a receptacle which receives the journal.

A one-piece cutting tool has a shank portion with a mounting end and a cutting end. The cutting end has a body portion and a substantially hemispherical portion. The cutting end further comprises a plurality of flutes, each flute helically extending adjacent to one another about the cutting end along a length from the body portion to the hemispherical portion. Each flute has a cutting edge divided into a first cutting edge section and a second cutting edge section, the first cutting edge section extending along the body portion and being substantially straight-edged or serrated, and the second cutting edge section extending along the hemispherical portion and being serrated along at least a part of the hemispherical portion. A cutting tool assembly is also provided.
