Provided is a tool bracket in which a spindle body is inserted and the spindle body can be smoothly tilted. The tool bracket includes a housing including a cylinder chamber extending along a cylinder axis; a tilting body having a tilt axis configured to tilt about a tilt center, the tilting body to which a spindle body is attachable, the tilting body tiltable with respect to the cylinder axis; a rotation stopper member extending in a radial direction from the tilt axis, the rotation stopper member disposed in the tilting body; and a receiving groove extending along the cylinder axis, the receiving groove arranged in the housing.

A tool holder and a parting and grooving tool for an indexable turret have a plurality of tool stations, The adjacent tool stations have a predetermined angular spacing. The tool holder includes a mounting portion and a projected portion, which are connected. The mounting portion has a flat surface extending in an interface plane and the projected portion has a recess for holding the parting and grooving tool. The parting and grooving tool includes a cutting portion and a clamping portion. The cutting portion includes a cutting edge and the clamping portion includes a rear end surface. The parting and grooving tool is mountable in the recess such that a distance from the interface plane to the rear end surface of the parting and grooving tool is greater than a distance from the interface plane to the cutting portion of the parting and grooving tool.

A method for producing a metal cutting tool component and a metal cutting tool component. The method includes the step of producing a front module having a main body and a front module interface at a rear end thereof, providing an intermediate element and building, using an additive manufacturing process, the main body on the build surface of the intermediate element. Further, a rear module including a coupling part at a rear end thereof and a rear module interface at a front end thereof is provided, and mounting the front module on the rear module by immovably connecting the front module and rear module interfaces, after the front module has been mounted on the rear module, machining at least one surface of the main body, and heat treating the intermediate element with the built main body, wherein at least the main body is hardened.
