A surface roughening tool includes a cylindrical body and at least one grooving blade outwardly radially projecting from the body and configured to form grooves and peaks into a surface. The surface roughening tool also includes at least one swaging blade outwardly radially projecting from the body and configured to deform the peaks. The at least one swaging blade is aligned with the at least one grooving blade along a circumference of the body.

A mill bit for the manufacture of a wind turbine blade includes an elongate based body having a proximal end, a distal end, an outer surface, and an internal bore that defines an inner surface, one or more flutes formed on the outer surface that defines one or more teeth, and an abrasive coating on at least a portion of the outer surface, wherein the one or more flutes are free of the abrasive coating. An abrasive coating may be selectively applied on the inner surface to provide flutes on the inner surface. Additionally, porting bores may be provided through the mill bit to fluidly connect the outside and inside of the mill bit. A method of making a mill bit is also described.

A milling tool includes a tool head and an exchangeable cutter carrier. The tool head can be coupled to a tool holder, and the cutter carrier includes a plurality of cutters distributed around its circumference, each having a front facing face cutter and a peripheral cutter extending at an angle thereto. In this case, the cutter carrier, including the cutters, has a thickness of at most ten mm, in particular at most six mm, for a diameter of at least fifty mm.

A milling tool is configured from a shank part and a head with a cutting edge that is provided on the leading end of the shank part. The head comprises an expanding diameter section, the diameter of which expands gradually from the base end that contacts the shank part in the direction of the leading end, and a decreasing diameter section, the diameter of which gradually decreases from the maximum diameter section in the direction of the leading end. At least one cutting edge is provided on each of the expanding diameter section and the decreasing diameter section.

A second distance is longer than a first distance and a value obtained by dividing the third distance by the fourth distance is more than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 0.8 when it is assumed that the first distance represents a distance between the cutting edge and the mounting surface in a direction perpendicular to the rake face, the second distance represents a distance between the mounting surface and a boundary portion between the rising portion and the flat portion in the direction perpendicular to the rake face, the third distance represents a distance between the boundary portion and a tip of the cutting edge in a direction parallel to the rake face, and the fourth distance represents a distance between the second discharging opening portion and the tip of the cutting edge in the direction parallel to the rake face.

An adzer bit includes a support member that defines a through hole that is configured to receive a fastener. The support member includes a cap portion and a base portion. The support member also defines an annular slot that is axially disposed between the cutting segment cap portion and the base portion. A plurality of cutting segments are received and secured in the annular slot. The material of the plurality of cutting segments is harder than the material of the support member.

A composite sintered body includes a diamond phase and a non-diamond carbon phase. A non-diamond carbon phase occupancy rate is higher than 0% and not higher than 30%. The non-diamond carbon phase occupancy rate is a percentage of an area of the non-diamond carbon phase to a total area of one arbitrarily specified cross section of the composite sintered body. As a result, there is provided a high wear-resistant, high local wear-resistant and high chipping-resistant diamond-containing composite sintered body suitably used as a material for a wear-resistant tool, a cutting tool and the like.
