Provided is a cutting insert having two cutting parts that is capable of entering a workpiece more deeply and easily supports machining of a groove or hole having a small diameter in a workpiece. A cutting insert includes: a body having at least an inner surface to be fixed to a tool body of a cutting tool and an outer surface opposed to the inner surface; and two cutting parts protruding in opposite directions in a longitudinal direction of the body. The cutting part includes: a cutting upper surface; a cutting front surface; and a first cutting side surface and a second cutting side surface. A front cutting edge is located on an edge between the cutting upper surface and the cutting front surface. In a projection view of the body as seen from the longitudinal direction, the cutting upper surfaces of the two cutting parts are oriented in directions opposed to each other, and front cutting edges of the two cutting parts are disposed so as to be more away from each other as being closer to the first cutting side surface from the second cutting side surface.

A cutting tool for turning includes a cutting insert having a cutting edge, a holder for holding the cutting insert, a wireless communication unit for transmitting information based on a measurement result of a sensor attached to the cutting tool, an acceleration sensor installed in the holder, and a control unit for performing first control for controlling activation of the wireless communication unit based on the measurement result of the acceleration sensor.

A turning toolholder includes a shank, a club head, and a clamp and a clamp screw for clamping a cutting insert. The club head includes a clamp coolant supply hole in fluid communication, a flank coolant supply hole and an auxiliary rake coolant supply hole, all in fluid communication with the main coolant supply hole. Coolant is supplied through a rake coolant exit opening formed in the forward nose portion of the clamp to direct coolant to the top rake surface of the cutting insert, and coolant is supplied through a flank coolant exit opening located below the insert-receiving pocket to provide coolant to the side flank surfaces of the cutting insert. In addition, an auxiliary rake coolant supply housing formed on a top surface of the club head supplies additional coolant to the top rake surface of the cutting insert during high heat applications.

A non-indexable, one-sided cutting insert includes opposite insert side surfaces which define an insert width therebetween, opposite insert front and rear surfaces which extend between the insert side surfaces and define an insert depth therebetween and opposite insert top and bottom surfaces which extend between the insert side surfaces and the insert front and rear surfaces. The insert top and bottom surfaces define an insert height therebetween. The insert further includes a main cutting edge formed at an intersection between the insert top and front surfaces. A maximum value of the insert width is smaller than minimum value of the insert height, and a minimum value of the insert depth. The insert includes a deep opening which opens out only to the insert bottom surface and defines an opening depth. A depth ratio defined between the opening depth and the insert height is greater than 0.3.

A cutting insert, for producing a V-shaped profile in a workpiece by radial piercing relative to an axis of rotation of the workpiece, includes a reference plane and a V-shaped insertion region. The V-shaped insertion region includes, inter alia, two cutting edges in the reference plane, a rake face and a plurality of elongated chip-guiding depressions in the rake face, each extending in parallel with a depression axis of extent or extension axis in the reference plane, providing improved chip formation compared to the prior art. The depression axes of extent or extension axes each extend at a recess chip-guiding angle in a region of 0° to 45°. A method of using the cutting insert and the workpiece at a standstill and a machining method are also provided.

A cutting insert according to the present disclosure includes a first raised portion and a second raised portion stepped from the first raised portion, which are formed on a top surface and along a center line connecting the center of the corner portion and the center of the top surface. The first raised portion is located closer to the corner portion than the second raised portion is, and the first raised portion is inclined downwardly from the second raised portion toward the corner portion. The second raised portion is formed at a higher position from the bottom surface than the first raised portion, and a side portion connected to the first raised portion is inclined downwardly from the second raised portion toward the first and second cutting edges.

A turning tool includes a power receiving coil, a sensor, and a wireless unit. The power receiving coil receives power transmitted from a power transmitting coil in a non-contact manner. The sensor is electrically connected to the power receiving coil. The wireless unit transmits data detected by the sensor to an outside.
