A milling tool includes a cutting insert, a holder, a fastener and a shim. The fastener forms a first channel cooperatively with the cutting insert. The first channel is configured to direct coolant towards a top side of the insert. In order to better prevent thermal fatigue of the cutting insert under milling conditions, the shim includes a second channel configured to direct coolant towards a clearance side of the cutting insert. A method of using a milling tool and a milling process are also provided.

A cutting tool comprising at least one blade arranged at an axial cutting head end of a tool carrier. The tool carrier comprises a chip-removal space that receives material chips removed by the blade. In some embodiments, the blade is adjacent to a chip passage feeding into the chip-removal space, which passage is limited by a radial chip gap partially limited by the blade and from there by a first and second passage surface, the first passage surface a continuation of the chip surface of the blade, the second passage surface running at an angle and widening relative to same, and is closed and limited at least in an axial sub-section facing the cutting head end, all around by a peripheral wall as a third passage surface, wherein at least one coolant channel is formed within the peripheral wall, which is provided to guide coolant to the cutting head end.

An indexable milling cutter includes a milling cutter body with a plurality of flutes and a plurality of seating surfaces adapted to mount a cutting insert thereon. The milling cutter body includes a plurality of coolant reservoirs in fluid communication with an adapter. In one aspect, each coolant reservoir lies along a circular intersection line of a coolant manifold. In another aspect, a longitudinal axis of each coolant reservoir is oriented at a non-zero angle, A, with respect to a central, longitudinal axis of the milling cutter. A plurality of coolant ducts in fluid communication with each coolant reservoir, each coolant duct having a smaller cross-sectional area than the coolant reservoir, provide multiple streams of coolant targeted at a plurality of specific critical cutting areas of the cutting insert.

A milling tool is configured from a shank part and a head with a cutting edge that is provided on the leading end of the shank part. The head comprises an expanding diameter section, the diameter of which expands gradually from the base end that contacts the shank part in the direction of the leading end, and a decreasing diameter section, the diameter of which gradually decreases from the maximum diameter section in the direction of the leading end. At least one cutting edge is provided on each of the expanding diameter section and the decreasing diameter section.

A whirling tool configured to machine a workpiece. The whirling tool includes a plurality of cutting inserts, a cutting insert carrier, and a coolant channel which is arranged in the cutting insert carrier. The cutting insert carrier includes a plurality of cutting insert receptacles for receiving and releasably fastening respectively one of the cutting inserts. The cutting insert receptacles are arranged distributed in the circumferential direction over the cutting insert carrier. The cutting insert carrier further includes a through-opening which extends along a central axis of the cutting insert carrier, and through which the workpiece can be passed during the machining. The cutting inserts protrude into the through-opening, and the coolant channel extends between an inlet opening and an outlet opening, wherein the outlet opening leads into the through-opening and/or is oriented towards the through-opening.

This milling cutter includes: a blade part 10 having a plurality of tips 12 each having an end cutting edge 121 and a peripheral cutting edge 122, and a blade-body portion 11 which is a plate-shaped body with the plurality of tips 12 fixed to an outer circumference thereof and has a groove 113 in accordance with a position of each tip; and a body 20 being rotatable around a rotational axis and having a front-end portion 21 having a front-end surface to which a rear-end surface of the blade-body portion 11 is fixable detachably and in close contact therewith, and a front-end outer-circumferential portion whose outer diameter is 100/100 to 97/100 using an outer diameter of the blade part 10 as a reference, the front-end outer-circumferential portion having a body-side groove 211 continuous to the groove 113 of the blade-body portion 11 contacted closely.

A cutting tool for machining mechanical parts. The cutting tool incudes a tool body with a central axis (A) and a gripping diameter. A tool head is adjacent to the tool body in the direction of the central axis (A) and includes of a sprinkling region and a cutting portion having a cutting diameter which is smaller than the gripping diameter. At least one lubrication duct extends through the tool body and opens into a sprinkling hole located in the sprinkling region. A directional sprinkling ring is provided for attachment to a ring connection region of the tool body. The ring connection region is adjacent to the sprinkling region and the directional sprinkling ring is configured in such a way that it delimits, with at least one portion of the sprinkling region, a distribution space, and the cross section of the distribution space is reduced in the direction of the cutting portion.
