A cutting insert according to an embodiment has a lower surface, an upper surface, a side surface disposed between the lower surface and the upper surface, a pair of corner cutting edges located along an intersection of the upper surface and the side surface, and a major cutting edge located between the pair of corner cutting edges. The major cutting edge has a downwardly dented curvilinear part and a pair of straight parts respectively extending from the curvilinear part toward the pair of corner cutting edges in a side view. A portion of the curvilinear part located lowermost is close to one corner cutting edge in the side view.

A cutting insert comprises an upper surface including a first corner, and a second and third corner, respectively, adjacent to both sides of the first corner. The upper surface sequentially includes a rake surface along an upper cutting edge, inclined toward a lower surface, going inward from the upper cutting edge at a rake angle on a basis of a perpendicular plane perpendicular to a central axis extending between the upper and lower surfaces, and a connection surface more inward than the rake surface, inclined toward the lower surface, going inward at a connection angle on the basis of the perpendicular plane. An intersecting part of the rake surface and the connection surface includes a highest position in a portion of the intersecting part corresponding to a minor rake surface. A cutting tool with cutting insert, and a method of producing a machined product using the cutting tool are provided.

A double-sided milling insert for high feed milling of metal workpieces includes upper and lower faces facing in opposite directions and convex clearance surfaces extending between the upper and lower faces. Each one of the faces includes a recessed support surface. The support surfaces are substantially parallel to each other and have a cavity therein for receiving a fastening device. Intersections of the convex clearance surfaces with the upper and lower faces form convex cutting edges when seen in a plan view. A rake face is provided adjacent the convex cutting edges. Each convex cutting edge is concave when seen in a side view and includes a substantially straight cutting edge portion on each side of a curved cutting edge portion when seen in plan view. A milling tool with a plurality of such inserts and a method of high feed milling using this tool are also disclosed.

A cutting insert according to an embodiment of the present invention has a cutting edge having a first corner cutting edge, a flat cutting edge, a connecting edge, a major cutting edge, and a second corner cutting edge in the order named. The major cutting edge has an upwardly protruding curvilinear portion, a first straight line portion extending from the curvilinear portion toward the connecting edge, and a second straight line portion extending from the curvilinear portion toward the second corner cutting edge. The flat cutting edge and the major cutting edge have a straight line shape, and the connecting edge has an outwardly protruding curvilinear shape in a top view. The flat cutting edge, the connecting edge, and the first straight line portion are located on a straight line in a side view.

A cutting insert according to an embodiment has a polygonal shaped upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface, and a cutting edge. The cutting edge has an arc-shaped first corner edge, an arc-shaped second corner edge, and a wiper edge located between the first corner edge and the second corner edge. The wiper edge has an arc-shaped first wiper edge and an arc-shaped second wiper edge located closer to the second corner edge than the first wiper edge. R0<R1<R2 is satisfied wherein R1 is a radius of curvature of the first wiper edge, R2 is a radius of curvature of the second wiper edge, and R0 is a radius of curvature of each of the corner edges in a top view.

A milling cutter includes a milling drum having a body with a first end, a second end, an outer surface extending around a circumference of the body between the first and second ends, and a slot formed in the outer surface. The milling cutter also includes a cutting insert positioned at least partially within the slot and removably secured to the body. The cutting insert includes a cutting profile defined by rounded peaks and pointed valleys to cut a tooth form into a saw blade.
