A high-feed milling tool assembly includes a tool and a ramping insert. The ramping insert includes ramping, feed and side sub-edges. The ramping and feed sub-edges are longer than the side sub-edges and converge with increasing proximity to the side sub-edge to which they are both connected.

A cutting insert, used for a milling cutter, which includes two polygonal main surfaces that are opposite each other and a plurality of side faces and whose main surfaces are rake faces, whose side faces are flank faces, and whose ridge lines at positions where the main surfaces and the side faces cross each other are used as cutting edges include two major side surfaces that are opposite each other and a plurality of minor side surfaces that are formed continuously with the major side surfaces. A mounting hole is provided at the two major side surfaces in a direction in which the mounting hole extends therethrough, and areas of the two major side surfaces are greater than those of the main surfaces. The major side surfaces and the minor side surfaces are provided with flutes along entire regions of the cutting edges.

The present invention relates to an insert for slot milling, and more specifically, to an insert for slot milling which can smoothly form a front end surface of a concave portion of a slot formed at a cutting target, and provides a safe use thereof by preventing the erroneous installation of cutting inserts coupled with insert-installation seats on both sides of a milling cutter body to prevent damage of the cutting inserts and the milling cutter. To this end, the present invention is characterized in that the plurality of cutting inserts are provided around the slot milling cutter body, one of two cutting inserts protrudes with respect to one side of the milling cutter body and the other protrudes with respect to the opposite side of the milling cutter body, and two cutting inserts are formed with different structures to prevent the erroneous installation thereof on the insert-installation seats prepared on both sides of the milling cutter body.

An object is to provide a cutting insert for a milling cutter with which efficiency in machining can be increased. The cutting insert includes two polygonal main surfaces facing each other and side surfaces each connected to a corresponding side of each of the main surfaces. The side surfaces include a major side surface through which an attachment hole extends, a first minor side surface perpendicular to the major side surface, and a second minor side surface disposed between the first minor side surface and the major side surface. A ridge between each of the main surfaces and the major side surface forms a major cutting edge, and a ridge between each of the main surfaces and the second minor side surface forms a minor cutting edge. An angle between the major cutting edge and the minor cutting edge is 145 or larger.

A rotary cutting tool includes a cutter body having a plurality of insert-receiving pockets. Each pocket includes a bottom support surface, an axial support surface, a radial support surface, a top clearance surface and an intermediate clearance surface extending between the axial support surface and the top clearance surface. A cutting insert includes a helical top surface, a helical side surface, a side surface opposite the helical side surface, a pair of opposed side walls, a bottom surface, and a cutting edge formed at an intersection between the helical top surface and the helical side surface. The cutting insert further includes an undercut for accommodating the axial support surface, the top clearance surface and the intermediate clearance surface of the pocket when the cutting insert is mounted in the pocket.

A rotary cutting tool includes a tool holder and a tool body releasably attached thereto. The tool body has a cutting portion that includes a peripheral insert pocket, for retaining a cutting insert. The tool holder includes an adjustment arrangement that includes a biasing member, movably attached to the tool holder, having a biasing portion. The cutting portion is adjustable between a non-flexed position and a flexed position. In the flexed position, the cutting portion is elastically deformed in a forward direction due to biasing engagement with the biasing portion, thereby adjusting the axial position of the insert pocket and thus the cutting insert.

Cutting insert with a cuboid body has a substantially square top face and bottom face, said top face and bottom face connected by four peripheral adjoining side surfaces. At least two cutting edges are formed at the transition of the top face to at least two side surfaces, that cutting edges defining a plane of the top face. To provide a cutting insert and a corresponding tool suited to produce valve seat surfaces with high precision but still having a rather simple construction and being precisely mountable with ease and less efforts of adjustment, the plane defined by the top face cutting edges of the cutting insert has maximum dimensions of 7 mm7 mm, where the bottom face has a supporting surface formed exactly parallel to the plane defined by the top face cutting edges by means of grinding within a tolerance of less than 5 angular minutes.
