A flank 311 of the first major cutting edge 11 and a flank 321 of the first wiper edge 12 are inclined such that the flank 311 and 321 approaches the central axis O as it heads toward the first end surface 10. The flank 311 of the first major cutting edge 11 is located on a different plane from the first side surface 31. The flank 321 of the first wiper edge 12 is located on a different plane from the second side surface 32. Meanwhile, a flank of the first inner edge 13 is located on the same plane as the third side surface 33.

Disclosed is an indexable face milling cutting insert which comprises an insert body and a cutting body laminated on an upper surface of the insert body, and the insert body comprises multiple positioning side surfaces, an upper plane, and a positioning bottom surface; a projection of an edge of the positioning bottom surface, or an extension line thereof, on a rake face is intersected with a corresponding edge of the rake face, or an extension line thereof, to form a surface deflection angle and multiple flank faces are arranged between the rake face and the multiple positioning side surfaces, so as to avoid damaging the positioning side surfaces when a cutting edge is sharpened, thereby ensuring stability and long-term effect of a positioning reference, and a face cutting milling and a wiper face milling are applicable to a same face milling insert retaining slots.

A cutting insert for a milling tool is provided. A longitudinal plane extends halfway between a first pair of opposing side surfaces of the cutting insert. A first axial relief face adjacent to the a auxiliary cutting edge and a first axial abutment face form part of a first surface grouping on a first side of the longitudinal plane, and a second axial relief face adjacent to a second auxiliary cutting edge and a second axial abutment face form part of a second surface grouping on a second side of the longitudinal plane. The first surface grouping and the second surface grouping meet in a partitioning line, wherein the partitioning line extends in the longitudinal plane , and wherein the partitioning line extends from the first side to the second side.

A cutting insert and a shoulder milling tool are disclosed. The cutting insert includes a surface-wiping secondary cutting edge inclined in relation to a median plane of the cutting insert such that a distance to the median plane decreases in a direction toward a corner cutting edge. The corner cutting edge, as seen in a side view along the median plane and towards a main cutting edge, has a concave curve.

A cutting insert and a shoulder milling tool are disclosed. The cutting insert includes a surface-wiping secondary cutting edge inclined in relation to a median plane of the cutting insert, such that a distance to the median plane decreases in a direction toward a corner cutting edge. A circumferential surface includes a clearance surface extending along a main cutting edge. The clearance surface along the main cutting edge extends at an acute angle to the median plane, such that the clearance surface forms a negative nominal clearance angle, and wherein the circumferential surface includes first and second abutment surfaces configured for abutment against axial and/or radial support surfaces of the milling tool, the abutment surfaces extending along at least part of the main cutting edge and the surface-wiping secondary cutting edge.

A cutting insert may include a base including a first surface, a second surface and a lateral surface. The first surface may include a first corner, a second corner and a first side. The first side may include a first portion, a second portion, a third portion and a fourth portion in this order in a direction from the first corner to the second corner.
