The second convex portion has a first end portion and a second end portion located closer to the corner than the first end portion. A first length from the first end to the first side is less than a second length from the second end portion to the first side in a top view.

A double sided V-shaped cutting insert includes insert front and back surfaces and a peripheral surface extending therebetween. The peripheral surface has a forward surface, a first planar converging surface, and a first rake surface extending between the forward surface and the first converging surface.

The first and second rake surfaces each face away from the bisector plane. The first rake surface tends towards the bisector plane more than the first converging surface, and the second rake surface tends towards the bisector plane more than the second converging surface.

There is provided a cutting insert having a low possibility that chips roughen a machined surface of a workpiece in back turning. The cutting insert includes a rake surface, a peripheral side surface, a front cutting edge which is provided on a ridge of the rake surface and the peripheral side surface, and a main cutting edge which is provided on the ridge so as to be continuous with the front cutting edge and has an extension direction which forms an obtuse angle with an extension direction of the front cutting edge, the main cutting edge is curved into a U shape over an entire length of an effective edge range which functions as a cutting blade, and the deepest point of the U shape is positioned in a range closer to a side of a corner than a position which divides a straight line connecting both ends of the main cutting edge at a ratio of 2:1 from the side of the corner positioned adjacent to the front cutting edge.

Provided is a cutting tool that simultaneously improves both fracture resistance and wear resistance. The cutting tool according to the present invention has an end surface, a peripheral side surface intersecting with the end surface, and a cutting edge in an intersecting ridge part along the end surface and the peripheral side surface, and when first and second points A and B are defined on the cutting edge, the first point A protrudes further toward an outer side of the cutting tool than the second point B. The cutting edge has a honing surface. The honing surface has a portion, the width of which gradually increases from the first point A toward the second point B.

A method to form a surface on a metal work piece includes providing a turning insert that has a nose angle formed between first and second cutting edges less than or equal to 85; providing a turning tool having a tool body with an insert seat in which the turning insert is mountable; arranging the orientation of the second cutting edge such that it forms a back clearance angle of more than 90 in a feed direction; rotating the metal work piece around a rotational axis in a first direction; moving the turning insert in a direction parallel to or at an angle less than 45 relative to the rotational axis; and setting the longitudinal axis of the tool body at an angle greater than zero but less than or equal to 90 relative to the rotational axis of the metal work piece.

The present disclosure relates to a cutting insert. The cutting insert according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure has a dot formed between a main cutting edge and a chip breaker, and the dot has a bridge formed between the main cutting edges. Therefore, a chip, which is produced during a cutting process, may come into contact with three points on a main cutting edge land portion, the bridge, and the dot. The chip may discharge heat generated from the cutting insert while the chip comes into contact with the three points.

A cutting insert for a tool for machining a workpiece. The cutting insert comprises a rake face with a chip shaping geometry which is particularly suitable for machining titanium and titanium alloys. The chip shaping geometry is designed in such a way that the chip lifted from the workpiece is deformed comparatively strongly about its longitudinal axis. The chip shaping geometry is arranged at least in a rear area of the rake face, which is laterally bounded by a first concavely curved portion and a second concavely curved portion of the minor cutting edges of the cutting insert. The chip shaping geometry projects upwardly beyond a cutting plane in which the main cutting edge of the cutting insert and two rectilinear portions of the two minor cutting edges are arranged and comprises at least two elevations so that the rake face in the rear area in a further cross-section parallel to the main cutting edge comprises two high points and an intermediate second low point which has an equal third distance from the first concavely curved portion and the second concavely curved portion. A rake angle along the main cutting edge varies such that the rake angle ?1 at a center of the main cutting edge, which has an equal second distance from a first end and a second end of the main cutting edge, is greater than the rake angle in the area of the first and/or second ends.

A cutting insert has a cutting portion corner formed at the intersection of a rake surface, a forward cutting portion surface and a relief surface. A cutting edge is formed at an intersection of the rake surface and the relief surface with a land that is located on the rake surface and that extends along, and negatively away from, the cutting edge. A chip-control arrangement is located at the rake surface and includes an elongated projection and plurality of spaced apart elongated protuberances that extend from the projection to the cutting edge, so that the land has a plurality of spaced apart bulging land portions. A non-rotary cutting tool has an insert holder having an insert pocket and the cutting insert releasably retained therein.
