An indexable cutting tool of a lever-lock type applies a clamping force. At a bottom of an insert fixing portion, there is formed a pillar-shaped lever in a state in which one end protrudes from a placement surface of the insert fixing portion. A screw applies a pressing force to the lever between the one end and a portion such that the lever is pressed and inclined with the portion s a fulcrum in the middle of the lever so that the one end applies a clamping force to the cutting insert.

An indexable milling cutting insert includes an opposed outside and inside, a periphery, and a plurality of homologous and alternately individually usable cutting edges, which are equidistantly spaced apart from a centre axis, which extends between the outside and inside. The cutting insert includes a plurality of countersunk chip channels, which are delimited by bottoms and tangentially spaced-apart ridges, which individually include a cutting edge formed between a chip surface included in a first chip channel, and a clearance surface, which borders on a second chip channel.

A milling tool has a basic body rotatable about a centre axis, and including an outside, which includes a pair of opposite front and back sides, as well as a peripheral envelope surface. The body is equipped with a plurality of replaceable cutting inserts. The basic body includes an inner hollow space having an internal limiting surface, in which there collectively mouth a plurality of bores. The bores also mouth in the outside. Each cutting insert is mounted on an outer end of an ejector, which is rectilinearly movable in the individual bore and has an inner end accessible from the hollow space, and which interacts with a compressible force generator, to pull the same into the bore. By mounting the cutting inserts on ejectors, which simultaneously are accessible from a common hollow space, the cutting inserts can be replaced fast and easily, and possibly also be indexed.

A tool for a chip removing machining includes a basic body and a replaceable cutting insert, which is indexable by a cutting edge exchange mechanism. The cutting edge mechanism includes an ejector, which in a front part has an attachment for the cutting insert and interacts with a device for transforming a rectilinear, axial projection of the ejector into a simultaneous turning of the same. The cutting edge exchange mechanism includes a stop collar, which is fixedly anchored in relation to the basic body, and through which the ejector is movable back and forth and a carrier included in a rear part of the ejector. In addition, between the carrier and the stop collar, there is arranged a mechanical compression spring, which spaces the carrier from the stop collar. In addition, an autonomous cutting edge exchange mechanism is disclosed.

A milling tool includes a body which is rotatable about a first axis. At least one cutting tooth mounted on the body having a cutting edge for cutting about the first axis. A wiper tooth extends from the mill body. The wiper tooth includes at least at a portion having a peripheral surface about the second axis and the peripheral surface intersects a face surface defining a cutting edge that is round about the second axis for cutting about the first axis. In some embodiments, the peripheral surface, the face surface and the cutting edge are formed on an insert that is mounted the mill body.
