A double-sided cutting insert for milling has a first cutting edge formed at a transition from a top side to a circumferential lateral surface and a second cutting edge formed at a transition from a bottom side to the circumferential lateral surface. A reference plane (R) runs normal to an axis of symmetry (S). The cutting edges have main cutting edge portions and face cutting edge portions arranged in alternation, which extend between raised cutting corners and lowered cutting corners. The circumferential lateral surface has face free surfaces, which extend along the face cutting edge portion and which approach the axis of symmetry (S) with increasing distance from the associated face cutting edge portion. The circumferential lateral surface has main free surfaces, which extend along the main cutting edge portion and which move farther away from the axis of symmetry with increasing distance from the associated main cutting edge portion.

A purpose is to provide a cartridge that can adjust position even if a body does not have an adjusting mechanism. A cartridge 10 is provided on a body B of a milling tool. The cartridge 10 is connected to an upper surface 10a, a lower surface 10b, and a first side surface 10c, and a slit 10h that divides the cartridge 10 into a main body part 10j, a thin material portion 10k, and a connecting part 10m that connects the main body part and the thin material portion is formed in the cartridge. Furthermore, a screw hole 10n with second female threads is formed in order for a second male screw that passes through the slit 10h to screw into. Furthermore, wherein the second male screw travels forward, the relative position of the main body part 10j changes with regard to the thin material portion 10k.

A rotating tool according to an aspect of the present disclosure is a rotating tool used in a state held by a tool holder, and the rotating tool includes a shaft portion having an end attached to the tool holder, a blade attaching portion or a blade portion provided at an end of the shaft portion opposite to the end, and a plurality of sensors attached to the shaft portion, and the plurality of sensors include an acceleration sensor and a strain sensor.

Provided is a cutting insert configured to be able to realize downsizing of a cutting tool. A cutting insert includes: an upper surface and a lower surface facing each other and having a plurality of corner parts; a side surface connecting the upper surface and the lower surface and forming intersecting edges with the upper surface and the lower surface, respectively; and a through hole that has a central axis extending from the upper surface to the lower surface and that is formed for penetration from the upper surface to the lower surface. A corner cutting edge arranged at a position corresponding to a corner part of the upper surface, a minor cutting edge connected to a first end of the corner cutting edge, and a major cutting edge connected to a second end of the corner cutting edge are formed on the intersecting edge between the upper surface and the side surface. A flank of the corner cutting edge and a recessed part located on the lower surface side of the flank of the corner cutting edge are formed on the side surface.

A cutting tool includes a toolholder and a cutting insert. The toolholder includes a toolholder pocket having a pocket wall including a first anti-rotation engagement surface and a second anti-rotation engagement surface. The cutting insert is mounted in the toolholder pocket. The cutting insert includes: an upper surface, the upper surface having a plurality circular sinusoidal cutting edges; a lower surface opposite the upper surface; and an exterior sidewall between the upper surface and the lower surface. The first anti-rotation engagement surface and the second anti-rotation engagement surface of the pocket wall of the toolholder engage the exterior sidewall of the cutting insert to resist rotation of cutting insert.

A tool body and at least one cassette for a milling tool. The tool body includes at least two identical insert seats, each insert seat being configured to support a cutting insert arranged to be mounted therein. At least one side contact surface is provided in each insert seat for supporting a bottom support surface and at least one side support surface of the cutting insert.
