Milling cutter
A milling cutter is configured to process an edge of a workpiece to a required profile. The required profile includes a first portion and a second portion coupled to the first portion. The milling cutter includes a shank having a central axis, at least one first cutting edge, and at least one second cutting edge. The first cutting edge is configured to rotate around the central axis of the shank along a first rotation path to process the first portion of the predetermined profile, and the second cutting edge is configured to rotate around the central axis of the shank along a second rotation path to process the second portion of the predetermined profile. The first rotation path is different from, and connected to the second rotation path.

Single-Pass, Single-Radial Layer, Circumferential-Progression Fill-Welding System, Apparatus and Method for Refurbishing Railway and other Transit Rails
A method and related system and apparatus for refurbishing worn rail transit rails to a desired refurbished rail surface profile substantially similar to the surface profile of a newly-manufactured rail, comprising: depositing a first line of fill material along a lower-inside section to be refurbished; in N1 successive iterations thereafter, progressing circumferentially from the lower-inside section to be refurbished to an upper-outside section to be refurbished, depositing an n+1.sup.th line of fill material adjacent an n.sup.th line of fill material wherein the n.sup.th line of fill material substantially provides a flow barrier against the n+1.sup.th line of fill material flowing past the n.sup.th line of fill material.

GOLF CLUB HEADS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING GOLF CLUB HEADS
A golf club head and a method of manufacturing a golf club head are described herein. The golf club head comprises a club face with a face portion, and grooves positioned on the club face. The grooves each comprise a bottom, a first side wall adjacent the bottom, a second side wall adjacent the bottom, a first top radius adjacent the first side wall, and a second top radius adjacent the second side wall. The club face further comprises a second portion positioned between the face portion, and the first top radius and the second top radius. The second portion of the club face allows for the grooves to appear visually wider to a player, which can provide psychological effects to benefit performance, while still conforming to USGA groove widths standards.

MASTER TRACK LINK TOOTH PROFILE MACHINING
A method for manufacturing a master track link comprises machining a rough tooth profile using a milling process, and machining a finished tooth profile using a milling process.
Forming closely spaced annular internal corrugations in circular waveguides
An apparatus for cutting annular corrugations in an interior surface of a cylindrical tube having a cutter head comprising a plurality of cutting teeth; a drive shaft coupled to the cutter head for spinning the cutter head; a mandrel coupled to the cutter head, wherein the mandrel defines a longitudinal axis, wherein an axis of rotation of the cutter head is parallel to, but in a position not coaxial with the axis of rotation of the cutter head; an outer eccentric coupled to mandrel, wherein the outer eccentric rotates the mandrel, wherein the axis of rotation orbits around the longitudinal axis.
PISTON CROWN HAVING CONICAL VALVE SEAT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A PISTON CROWN HAVING A CONICALLY SHAPED VALVE SEAT
A piston has a piston crown and a top land extending circumferentially around the piston crown, as well as a combustion bowl and at least one valve pocket machined therein. The valve pocket has a side wall and a bottom, and wherein the side wall extends at an angle of between 110 and 120 from the bottom. A method for forming such valve pockets in the piston crown includes machining the valve pockets with a rotating cutter having an inverted frustoconical shape such that an angle between a bottom of the cutter and a side wall of the cutter amounts to between 110 and 120.
FORMED END MILL
In a formed end mill, a peripheral cutting edge has a smaller-diameter cutting part and a larger-diameter cutting part. An imaginary line obtained by lining up a deepest point of a flute bottom of a chip discharge flute, which appears in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to an axis of an end mill body, in an extending direction of the chip discharge flute is defined as a virtual flute bottom line. A flute helix angle, which is formed between the virtual flute bottom line and the axis, in a side view when the end mill body is seen from a radial direction orthogonal to the axis, is 0 degrees or more at a distal end part of the chip discharge flute in the axial direction, and increases gradually from the distal end part toward a posterior end in the axial direction.
