A metal cutting drill insert for a drill tool has opposing top and bottom surfaces with a symmetry axis extending therebetween. At least one stepped cutting edge is configured to cut a continuous chip along the at least one stepped cutting edge. The at least one stepped cutting edge is formed at an intersection of a rake face and an adjoining clearance face of the side surface. In a top view facing the top surface the at least one stepped cutting edge includes a step formed by a transitional edge between a first part and a second part edge. The step extends in a radial direction relative the symmetry axis by a first distance h1, and in a side view facing the side surface the step extends in a direction from the bottom surface towards the top surface by a second distance h2, wherein 0.8.Math.h1≤h2≤1.2.Math.h1.

A drilling tool is provided, which is configured to prevent an insufficient chip discharge ability thereof. The drilling tool includes a cutting insert having a cutting edge at a leading end portion, and a body to which the cutting insert is mounted. The drilling tool also includes a recessed part provided on an outer peripheral surface of the body and extending to a leading end of the body, and an oil supply port provided on a base end side of the recessed part and supplying cutting oil, passing through the inside of the body, to an outer peripheral side of the body. In a case where the drilling tool further includes a guide pad that comes into abutment with an inner wall surface of a hole cut by the cutting insert, and a fastening screw for fixing the guide pad to the body, the oil supply port may be provided at a position further toward the base end side of the body than a position of the fastening screw.

A tool is described comprising a first part (14) adapted to be received by a part of a power tool, in use, and a second part (20) adapted to cooperate, in use, with a core drill bit (12), the first and second parts (14, 20) being releasably couplable to one another by a releasable coupling including a coupling pin (30) that, in use, extends within aligned passages (26, 28) formed in the first and second parts (14, 20), the coupling pin (30) including a resilient retainer clip section (32) that resiliently extends around at least part of, and engages, the first or second part (14, 20) to retain the coupling pin (30) in position. An arrangement in which a support member is carried by the second part is also described.

A machining tool for producing or machining bores, respectively, with high positional and/or surface quality, comprising a tool axis and a tool carrier section, which carries at least one tool blade and at least one guide rail, which radially supports the tool carrier section on a bore wall. The guide rail can be set with respect to its radial position and with respect to its tilt relative to the tool axis by means of a setting means, which engages with a guide rail carrier. In order to put together a tool, which operates highly precisely and with little effort, the guide rail carrier is connected via a material joint to a section that is fixed to the tool, thus either to the tool carrier section or a component, which can be firmly connected thereto, and the material joint can be blocked by means of the setting means.

An auger includes a cylindrical body, a first channel helically defined in the cylindrical body, and a second channel helically defined in the cylindrical body. The auger further includes a first conduit defined in the cylindrical body. The first conduit includes a first sloped portion. The auger further includes a second conduit defined in the cylindrical body. The second conduit includes a second sloped portion. The auger further includes a first end mill formed in a first cavity defined in the cylindrical body, and a second end mill formed in a second cavity defined in the cylindrical body.

A cutting insert rotatable about an axis, has opposing front and rear surfaces interconnected by an insert peripheral surface, the insert peripheral surface having first and second side surfaces spaced apart by first and second land surfaces. First and second land edges extend along the first and second land surfaces, respectively. A first front edge formed at the intersection of the front surface and the first side surface includes a cutting-edge portion, and a second front edge formed at the intersection of the front surface and the second side surface is devoid of a cutting-edge portion. A cutting profile formed by rotating the cutting-edge portion about the axis is located axially forward of the second front edge. The cutting insert is releasably secured to a tool shank, the cutting insert being located between two protuberances protruding from a forward end portion of the tool shank.

There is provided a drill tool assembly for drilling metallic or other materials, comprising a holder having a mounting slot in which a cutting insert is positioned, and a through tool coolant supply system. The drilling tool system allows for the application of coolant to the rake surfaces of the cutting insert in a manner which facilitates enabling higher penetration rates while maintaining integrity of the cutting edges of the cutting insert. The drilling tool system comprises a holder having a rotational axis and mounting slot. A cutting insert with sides positioned adjacent the side surfaces of the mounting slot and cutting edges extending from the rotational axis is mounted in the slot. The insert includes rake surfaces adjacent the cutting edges that are positioned above the mounting slot. At least one coolant channel is disposed with at least one coolant outlet directed at the sides of the insert at a position below the rake surfaces. The coolant outlet is configured to disperse coolant in a curtain across the entire rake face of each cutting edge.

The invention relates to a rotary tool (2) extending longitudinally from a shank region (8) to a front-facing end region along an axis of rotation (6) and having a carrier (4) with a plate seat (14) and a cutting insert (16) that can be replaceably inserted therein. The cutting insert (16) as well as the plate seat (14) each have radial and axial contact surfaces (40A, B) which are strained against one another with the aid of a clamping screw (50) during assembly of the cutting insert (16). According to the invention, it is provided that the axial contact surfaces (40A, B) and in particular also the radial contact surfaces (42A, B) are inclined in a V shape on one side of the cutting insert (16) and on the other side of the plate seat (14), so that a centering effect is automatically produced during assembly.

A rotary cutting tool with enhanced bump-off capability is disclosed. The cutting tool includes a tool shank having a pocket. A replaceable cutting head is at least partially disposed within the pocket of the tool shank with an interference fit. A coupling pin assembly is at least partially received within a bore of the tool shank. The coupling pin assembly comprises a sleeve member and a coupling pin at least partially disposed within the sleeve member. The sleeve member includes an upper portion and a lower portion having a non-circular cross-sectional shape with a bump-off surface. An actuation screw contacts the coupling pin assembly and causes the replaceable cutting head to move relative to the tool shank. The bump-off surface of the lower portion of the sleeve member extends radially outward with respect to the coupling pin by a distance, D, thereby providing enhanced bump-off capability.
