A cutting insert is provided, comprising a top surface, a bottom surface, a plurality of side surfaces spanning therebetween, and a cutting edge formed at an intersection of the side surface and a forwardly-disposed portion of the top the surface. It further comprises a cooling cavity projecting into the insert, a top end thereof being disposed further forwardly than an open bottom end thereof. The cooling cavity defines at least one molding axis such that a solid element having the shape of the cooling cavity and completely inserted therein may be retracted intact therefrom along a linear path parallel to the molding axis. A circumscribing portion is formed on the side surfaces encircling the cutting insert. The circumscribing portion is formed parallel to the molding axis and has a non-zero height along its entire extent. The cutting insert does not extend beyond the circumscribing portion.

A cutting insert includes an insert peripheral surface that includes at least one planar major insert side abutment surface and an insert lower surface that includes an anti-slip recess recessed therein. The anti-slip recess includes at least one elongated and straight anti-slip groove. Each major insert side abutment surface is oriented parallel to a groove longitudinal axis of a respective anti-slip groove. An insert holder includes a holder pocket. The holder pocket includes a pocket peripheral surface which includes planar major pocket side abutment surface and a pocket base surface having an elongated and straight anti-slip rib. When the cutting insert is releasably attached to the insert holder, to constitute a fastened position of a cutting tool, the anti-slip rib is located in the anti-slip groove that is oriented parallel to the major insert side abutment surface that abuts the major pocket side abutment surface.

A cutting insert includes a first end surface and a second end surface, in which a first peripheral side surface includes a first rake surface adjacent to a first main cutting edge and a first concave surface connected to the second end surface and formed to be recessed from the first rake surface toward a central axis of a through hole, and the first concave surface has a first restraint surface provided at a position where a distance between the first restraint surface and a second main cutting edge is smaller than a distance between the central axis of the through hole and the second main cutting edge, when viewed from a direction parallel to the central axis of the through hole.

A cutting insert of an embodiment of the present invention includes an upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface connected to each of the upper surface and the lower surface, and an upper cutting edge located at an intersection of the upper surface and the side surface. The lower surface includes a mount part having alternately three first top portions spaced a distance a away from a central axis extending between the upper and lower surfaces and three second top portions spaced a distance b away from the central axis in a bottom view. The mount part further has a concave part including at least the central axis. The second top portions are located closer to the upper surface than the first top portions. A cutting tool with the cutting insert, and a method of manufacturing a machined product by using the cutting tool are also provided.

A rotary cutting tool, such as a slotting cutter, includes a cutter body rotatable in a predetermined direction on a central axis perpendicular to a plane of the cutter body. A plurality of cutting insert-receiving pockets are formed at predetermined locations about the cutter body. A cantilevered member can be integrally formed in the cutter body or attached to the cutter body as a separate component. A tip of the cantilevered member at least partially extends into each insert-receiving pocket such that the cantilevered member exerts a biasing force against a cutting insert at a location so as to counteract a tendency of the cutting insert to rotate within the insert-receiving pocket during a cutting operation.

A cutting insert for milling square shoulders has side surfaces each provided with a major cutting edge connected to an associated wiper edge on an adjacent side surface of the insert. The side surface provided with the major cutting edge has two generally flat and non-coplanar support surfaces arranged consecutively with respect to a direction of the extension of the major cutting edge and make different angles with a normal to a bottom surface of the insert. A border forming a limit of the support surfaces most distant to the bottom surface is inclined with respect to the bottom surface so that the distance of this border to the bottom surface increases in a direction of extension of the cutting edge towards the wiper edge.

A tool and a cutting insert for chip removing machining includes a tool body with an insert seat, a cutting insert mounted in the insert seat, and a fastening member. The cutting insert includes a first locking member extending in an area located outside of a central axis of the cutting insert. A second locking member configured to engage with the first locking member is provided in the insert seat. The fastening member extends through a through-hole and bears on a lower contact region of the cutting insert to press the cutting insert against a top support member provided rotationally ahead of the insert seat so that the second and first locking members lock with each other and form a radial support for the cutting insert, and on the other hand it presses an axial support region in the side surface of the cutting insert against an axial contact surface provided in the insert seat.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a cutting insert which reduces cutting load and can be accurately positioned at a coupling part of a cutting tool even if cutting edges are broken or deformed. To this end, the cutting insert of the present invention includes an upper surface, a lower surface, a plurality of lateral surfaces connecting the upper surface with the lower surface, and a plurality of upper cutting edges formed between the plurality of lateral surfaces and the upper surface. In addition, the cutting insert coupled with the coupling part of the cutting tool includes: first and second upper cutting load reducing portions formed on the upper surface and provided at each side coming in contact with first and second upper cutting edges of the plurality of upper cutting edges facing each other so as to reduce the cutting load; and a one side position setting portion provided on a first lateral surface of the plurality of lateral surfaces not coming in contact with the first and second upper cutting edges so as to set the position of the cutting insert in the coupling part.

A helical blade cutter including multiple linear blades attached to an outer circumferential surface of a round body having an outer surface formed into a cylindrical circumferential surface. The blades tilt to a given helix angle α from a straight line on the outer circumferential surface parallel to a rotational central axis O. Blade attachment surfaces are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the round body at given intervals in the circumferential direction. The blade attachment surfaces tilt to an angle same as the helix angle α of the blade while tilting to a rake angle β in a direction of an elevation angle from a tangent to the outer circumferential surface. The blades are each attached to a blade attachment part through intervention of a chip holder that allows detachment of the blade.

Provided are a cutting insert and a tool holder on which the cutting insert is provided. The cutting insert includes a circular upper surface, a circular lower surface, a cylindrical lateral surface for connecting the upper surface and the lower surface, an upper cutting edge formed between the upper surface and the lateral surface, a lower cutting edge formed between the lower surface and the lateral surface, and a plurality of rotation-preventing parts provided at the lateral surface so as to prevent the cutting insert from rotating with respect to the tool holder. Each rotation preventing part includes an inner curved surface recessed toward the center of the lateral surface and convexly rounded so as to form concentric circles in conjunction with the lateral surface, and a stepped rotation-preventing surface parallel to the axial direction of the insert and connecting the inner curved surface and the lateral surface.
