A fly-cutting system is disclosed, and in particular one that comprises a dynamically-controllable actuator for controlling the position, orientation, or both position and orientation of a cutting element carried by a fly-cutting head. In certain embodiments, the actuator can adjust the position or orientation of a cutting element, or both, hundreds or thousands of times per second, enabling precise control over the shape of features formed by the cutting element in a surface of a workpiece.

A tool blank (30) for a cutting tool (1), such as an end mill, drill or engraving tool, includes a tool shank (2) configured to be received in a rotating tool holder of a processing machine, and a cutting head blank (3) fixedly connected to the tool shank (2). The cutting head blank (3) includes multiple cutting head blank elements (5) fixedly connected to each other, preferably soldered to each other, and made of a high hardness material such as polycrystalline diamond. A cutting tool (1), such as an end mill, drill or engraving tool, has at least one tool cutting edge (15) that is defined on such a tool blank (30) and extends over multiple cutting head blank elements (5) that are fixedly connected to one another.

Various components of an electronic device housing and methods for their assembly are disclosed. The housing can be formed by assembling and connecting two or more different sections together. The sections of the housing may be coupled together using one or more coupling members. The coupling members may be formed using a two-shot molding process in which the first shot forms a structural portion of the coupling members, and the second shot forms cosmetic portions of the coupling members.

The invention relates to a rotating tool including a support shaft extending in the axial direction along a rotational axis and a tool head connected thereto having a base body extending along the rotational axis and a core, to which a jacket made of a cutting material is placed, wherein the core has a circular cross-section (Q) in the radial direction and a jacket has a specified wall thickness and wherein a number of grooves is made in the jacket in order to form a number of cutting edges.

A milling tool having multiple cutting disks is disclosed. Each cutting disk is anchored into a flute on the milling tool with clamping screws. During use, the cutting disks naturally become dull. In a preferred embodiment, a single clamping screw is used to hold the cutting disk in place. The clamping screw is loosened and the cutting disk is rotated such that a new and sharp portion of the cutting disk is exposed for use. In an alternative embodiment, multiple clamping screws are used to secure the cutting disk into the flute. In the event a cutting disk becomes stuck in a flute, a clamping screw in a threaded bore coaxially aligned with the locating bore is used to push the cutting disk and eject it out of the flute. This design allows for many positions on the cutting disk to be used before the disk needs to be replaced, sharpened, or refurbished.

A milling tool for milling a material is provided. The milling tool comprises a tool shank having an axis of rotation, and further comprises a tool head at one end thereof. The tool head comprises at least two tiers, each tier comprising a plurality of flutes extending circumferentially around the tool head. The tool head comprises superhard material and the tiers are axially displaced from each other and separated by a non-cutting portion of the tool head.

A cutting tool includes a portion made of a high hardness material. The portion includes a rake face, a flank face, and a cutting edge. The rake face is divided into a region A along the cutting edge and a region B excluding the region A of the rake face, a surface roughness of the region A is smaller than a surface roughness of the region B, and the region B is deepened with respect to a position of the region A.
