A rotary cutting tool includes a tool holder. The tool holder has holder body and an adjustment sleeve circumferentially disposed thereabout. The adjustment sleeve has an at least one sleeve adjustment groove which decreases in distance from a sleeve central axis in a rotational sleeve direction. The tool holder further has a plurality of insert cartridges, each having an insert pocket and at least one cartridge pin. At least one pin is located in a respective sleeve adjustment groove. The tool holder is adjustable between inner and outer adjusted positions by rotating the adjustment sleeve in the rotational sleeve direction. In the outer adjusted position, the insert cartridges are displaced in an outwards adjusted direction so that the insert pockets are radially outwards compared to the inner adjustment position.

A boring head is provided comprising a tool body (1) having a main rotation axis (R) about which the tool body (1) rotates during boring operations. The boring head further comprises a tool carrier (6) arranged in or on the tool body (1), a first motor (9) for displacing the tool carrier (6) relative to the tool body (1) and a clamping mechanism (26) with a clamping element (27, 55, 68, 81) for effecting a clamping force on the tool carrier (6), in order to prevent a displacement of the tool carrier (6) relative to the tool body (1) during boring operations. The clamping mechanism (26) is an active clamping mechanism which effects a clamping force that can be adjusted actively.

An adjustable cartridge for a boring bar includes a support structure including a surface for abutment with a peripheral area of a boring bar. A load-bearing structure mounts a cutting insert assembled to be movable in a first direction on the support structure. An adjustment mechanism is arranged to adjust the position of the load-bearing structure in relation to the support structure. The adjustment mechanism includes at least a first elastic means arranged to exert force against a first surface of the load-bearing structure, and an adjustment part disposed between the support structure and a second surface of the load-bearing structure and arranged to contact and to be movable in a second direction relative to the support structure and the load-bearing structure. The adjustment part has a surface that forms an acute angle with the second direction and is disposed in contact with a second surface of the load-bearing structure.

The invention relates to a drill head for chambering a blind hole with a flat base, and a method directed thereto.

The invention relates to a drill head for chambering non-cylindrical, rotationally symmetrical holes. This drill head is characterized in that, starting from a diameter of a guide hole, it can cut a very large chamber out of a workpiece. In addition, the drill head has a simple design and is very robust and tight, so that high cutting capacities can be reliably achieved.

An apparatus for processing a groove on an interior circumference of a cylinder bore may include, a holder formed with bolt holes on a lower surface, a frame having a fixing end, a mounting end, and a supporting end, the fixing end being formed with slots corresponding to the bolt holes, an inner slip ring mounted on an exterior circumference of a lower end portion of the holder and connected an electrical cable, an outer slip ring externally installed on the inner slip ring allowing a slip, a motor mounted on the mounting end of the frame, connected to the inner slip ring through the electrical cable, and having a rotation shaft rotatably supported by the mounting end and the supporting end, and a cutting tip coupled with the rotation shaft of the motor through a tip holder mounted on the rotation shaft.

A boring tool has a slider member connected to a cutting insert seat, the slider member is arranged movably inside a tool body of the boring tool along a path extending transversely to a rotation axis of the boring tool for adjusting the distance of the of the cutting insert seat in relation to the rotation axis. A wedge-shaped clamping member is connected to a drive unit and arranged inside the tool body. The wedge-shaped clamping member is in contact with the slider member for clamping the slider member into a locked position, in which locked position, the wedge-shaped clamping member is pre-loaded to passively lock the slider member. The drive unit is controllable such that the wedge-shaped clamping member is actively releasable when adjusting the distance of the cutting insert seat.

A boring tool includes a tool body rotatable around a central rotation axis. A slider member is arranged movably inside the tool body along a path extending transversely to the rotation axis. An insert pocket is associated with the slider member to move therewith and configured to receive a cutting insert with a cutting edge and which projects from the tool body transversely to the rotation axis. A motor member is connected to the slider member and controllable to move the slider member transversely to the rotation axis for changing the distance of the cutting edge to the rotation axis. The motor member is arranged inside the tool body together with the slider member in a cutting part of the tool body at a front end thereof. The motor member is arranged in parallel with the transversal extension of the slider member along said path.

A machining tool forms a first relief surface, a valve seat surface, and a second relief surface by cutting the inner periphery of a valve seat blank having an opening. The machining tool is provided with: a tool body rotationally driven about an axis; a plurality of cutting tools rotating with the tool body; a cartridge mounted to the tool body so as to be capable of moving forward and backward along the axis; and a cam in contact with the base end surface of the cartridge and moving the cartridge forward and backward. At least one of the plurality of cutting tools is mounted to the cartridge.
