A rotary cutting tool includes a cutter of generally cylindrical shape disposed about a central longitudinal axis. The cutter has a first end having an active fluted portion and an opposite second end, the second end having a male threaded portion disposed thereabout. The cutting tool further includes a shank of generally cylindrical shape disposed about the central longitudinal axis, the shank having a recessed female threaded portion formed in a first end. The male threaded portion includes a number of threads disposed at a first pitch and the female threaded portion includes a number of threads disposed at a second pitch different than the first pitch. The cutter and the shank are selectively coupled via threaded engagement of the male threaded portion and the female threaded portion.

A tool coupling used for a clamping connection between two coupling parts, in particular between a cutting head and a carrier of a rotary tool, in particular of a drill. The coupling parts comprise clamping sections, which respectively correspond to one another and which can be clamped against each other by turning counter to a predefined direction of rotation about an axis of rotation so that a press fit is produced. In order to produce a high clamping force and at the same time allow for a simple installation via screwing in, each clamping section comprises several successive clamping surfaces whichwith respect to a cross section viewed orthogonally to the axial directionrespectively travel along a circular arc, wherein the diameter increases for clamping surfaces succeeding one another in the direction of rotation.

A replaceable head cutting tool increases the strength of engagement between a tool body and a coupling member without causing damage. A cylindrical mounting unit of the coupling member which is made of a metal having hardness lower than the hardness of the tool body, is inserted into a mounting hole having a concave portion formed on the inner surface of the tool body. The mounting unit is plastically deformed so as to increase in diameter, and the outer peripheral surface of the mounting unit contacts the inner peripheral surface of the mounting hole and is engaged with the concave portion which includes a first wall surface that is inclined toward the outer peripheral side as it moves in an insertion direction of the mounting unit, and a second wall surface that is inclined toward the inner peripheral side as it moves in the insertion direction.

A rotatable cutting tool is disclosed and includes an elongate body having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end and a distal end. The cutting tool further includes at least one helical flute extending over a cutting length of the elongate body, the helical flute having a first end and a second end. The helical flute includes a leading cutting wall having an edge, a trailing cutting wall having an edge, and a flute surface between the leading cutting wall and the trailing cutting wall, the flute surface including a curved surface portion including a constant radius from the longitudinal axis of the elongate body. The cutting tool further includes a plurality of reliefs evenly spaced along the leading and trailing walls of the helical flute, each of the reliefs forming a semi-circular cutout on the flute surface, and wherein the reliefs in the trailing cutting wall are longitudinally offset from the reliefs in the leading cutting wall.

A rotary cutting tool includes a tool holder and a tool body releasably attached thereto. The tool body has a cutting portion that includes a peripheral insert pocket, for retaining a cutting insert. The tool holder includes an adjustment arrangement that includes a biasing member, movably attached to the tool holder, having a biasing portion. The cutting portion is adjustable between a non-flexed position and a flexed position. In the flexed position, the cutting portion is elastically deformed in a forward direction due to biasing engagement with the biasing portion, thereby adjusting the axial position of the insert pocket and thus the cutting insert.

A tool for machining a workpiece. The tool comprises a first tool component which comprises a first internal coolant bore and, on a first face side end, a first connection interface, wherein the first connection interface comprises a first end face for attaching a joining material as well as an elevation which protrudes from the first end face, wherein a first coolant outlet of the first internal coolant bore is arranged on the elevation. In addition, the tool comprises a second tool component which comprises a second internal coolant bore and, on a second face side end, a second connection interface, wherein the second connection interface comprises a second end face for attaching the joining material as well as a recess provided in the second end face, wherein a second coolant outlet of the second internal coolant bore is arranged in the recess. The first tool component and the second tool component are joined together by means of the joining material attached to the first and second end face in such a manner that the first coolant outlet is aligned with the second coolant outlet.

A replaceable cutting head includes a forward cutting portion and a rearward mounting portion. The mounting portion includes a male coupling member that protrudes rearwardly from a head base surface. The male coupling member includes forward and rearward bearing portions and an external thread located therebetween. The forward and rearward bearing portions include respective conically shaped forward and rearward head abutment surface. The forward and rearward head abutment surfaces have the same cone angle. When a cutting tool, including said cutting head and a tool holder having a female coupling member, is in a locked position, the external thread is threadingly engaged in the female coupling member and the forward and rearward head abutment surfaces conically abut corresponding conical shaped surfaces in the female coupling member.

A rotatable cutting tool, which extends along a tool axis defining an axial direction, includes a cutting formation in a first axial longitudinal end region, which is configured for material ablation on a workpiece, and includes a screw-connection formation in a second axial longitudinal end region opposing the first, which is configured for screw connection with a coupling unit. The cutting tool includes key-contact surface formations diametrically opposing each other with respect to the tool axis, which are configured for torque-transmitting abutting engagement with key surfaces of a key. Each of the key-contact-surface formations includes at least two key-contact surface regions provided with spacing from each other in the circumferential direction about the tool axis, which key-contact surface regions are inclined away from each other such that they form a vertex projecting away from the tool axis.

Provided is a replaceable machining head wherein: fractures on the tool attaching portion do not occur; the production cost is minimized; the tool life of the working tool will be lengthened; and the head body is free from a risk of falling off during replacement. In the replaceable machining head, a cutting edge section is formed on the front side of a head body; a tool attaching portion to which a working tool is to be attached, is formed on the rear end side of the cutting edge section; tool attaching faces are formed in the tool attaching portion; the surface of the head body 1 is coated with a coating film; and the number of droplets or macro particles having convex shapes with a size of 0.3 m to 5.0 m, is 200 or less, per area of 40 m60 m on the surface of the coating film over the tool attaching faces.

An assembly-type cutter includes a shank and a cutter head. The shank has a hole at one end. The hole has a receiving portion, which includes an internal thread and can be treated thermally for increased rigidity. The cutter head has a cutting portion and a connecting portion at opposite ends respectively. The connecting portion includes a threaded member and can also be treated thermally for increased rigidity. The cutter head and the shank are threadedly connectable via the connecting portion and the receiving portion. The threaded member includes a body portion, whose diameter is defined as a root diameter, and an external thread on the body portion. The body portion is slightly tapered such that a locus of the root diameter is inclined.
