A method for simultaneous production of at least two back-tapers on the teeth of a workpiece in the form of a gearwheel using a tool that includes a tool carrier configured in elongated manner, in the manner of a journal, and oriented coaxial to a central longitudinal axis of the tool, and at least two blades, which come into engagement with the tooth to be machined, removing chips during use, wherein the blades are held on the tool carrier at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction of the tool carrier and a width of the blades extend over a partial length of the tool carrier. The position of at least one of the blades is adjustable in relation to the other blade, so as to balance out deformations of the tool carrier that occur during use.

A machining system includes a machining unit and a moving apparatus configured to move the machining unit. The machining unit includes a rotating tool for rotating about an axis in a vertical direction, an upper surface abutting member configured to be abutted against an upper surface of a work, an end face abutting member configured to be abutted against an end face of the work between an upper edge and an lower edge of the work, and a vertical moving unit configured to change a position of the upper surface abutting member in the vertical direction with respect to the rotating tool. The rotating tool includes a machining portion main body, a first machining portion provided on a lower side of the machining portion main body, and a second machining portion provided on an upper side of the machining portion main body.

A key-cutting machine includes: a support structure; a front operational area which is accessible by an operator; at least one milling and/or cutting unit which is positioned in the front operational area and which includes at least one end mill, and/or another cutting member, to carry out a bitting processing of a key. The key-cutting machine also includes at least one clamp, which is positioned in the front operational area, to hold the key to be machined, so that a face of the key to be engraved is arranged substantially horizontally. The key-cutting machine also includes a device for engraving at least one face of the head of said key, said device being positioned inside the front operational area of said duplicating machine; and at least one pair of engraving tools mounted on a support unit. Each engraving tool includes cutting sections for engraving a corresponding face of a key.

The present disclosure provides a cutting insert that is economical and can be stably fixed to a tool body. A first edge line (10R) of a cutting insert (2) is a rectangle having a first side (11) and a third side (13) as long sides and a second side (12) and a fourth side (14) as short sides. Cutting edges are formed at the first side (11), the second side (12) and the third side (13); on the other hand no cutting edge is formed at the fourth side (14). At a second edge line (20R) having the same shape as the first edge line (10R), a sixth side (22) where a cutting edge is formed is opposite to the fourth side (14), and an eighth side (24) where a cutting edge is not formed is opposite to the second side (12). A peripheral side surface (30) includes a fourth side surface (34) facing the fourth side (14) and the sixth side (22). The fourth side surface (34) extends from a first end surface (10) to a second end surface (20) and is inclined in a direction from the second side (12) to the fourth side (14).

A T-slot cutter (1) is a tool for cutting a T-groove in a workpiece, and includes a body (2A) and an insert portion (3). The insert portion (3) is fixed to a leading end portion of the body (2A) using screws (8). The insert portion (3) is configured by overlaying inserts (4) and (5). By changing a combination of the inserts configuring the insert portion (3), a groove width and an angular shape of the T-groove cut in the workpiece can be easily adjusted. On mating faces of the inserts (4, 5), convex portions and concave portions of the mating face of the insert (4) overlap with concave portions and convex portions of the mating face of the insert (5). As a result, the inserts (4, 5) partially overlap with each other in a thickness direction, and thus a protrusion length of the insert portion (3) can be shortened.

A machine tool includes a machine bed, a tool clamping portion which is arranged on the machine bed and serves to clamp a workpiece on the machine tool, a swivel arm receiving portion arranged on the machine bed, a first swivel arm pivotally mounted on the swivel arm receiving portion about a first axis of rotation, a second swivel arm pivotally mounted on the first swivel arm about a second axis of rotation, a spindle carrier arm rotatably mounted on the second swivel arm about a third axis of rotation, a milling head rotatably mounted on the spindle carrier arm about a fourth axis of rotation, and a work spindle which is held on the milling head and serves to receive a tool, wherein the third axis of rotation is aligned perpendicularly or transversely to the fourth axis of rotation.

A method for introducing recesses in workpiece surfaces to be machined, with the aid of at least one tool. The invention is characterized in that two workpiece surfaces that face each other are simultaneously machined using the tool in order to introduce recesses into said workpiece surfaces.

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.
