A method of milling a profile of a railway rail comprises: rotating a milling cutter including a plurality of face mounted cutting inserts mounted about a periphery thereof, milling a railway rail with cutting edges of the cutting inserts rotating in a predetermined plane corresponding to at least a portion of a desired rail profile while controlling the depth of cut of the cutting inserts; traversing the railway rail with the milling cutter while milling the railway rail and controlling the speed of traverse of the milling cutter along the railway rail.

A milling head for a ball track milling cutter includes an imaginary center axis, a first, working-side end and a second, clamping-side end opposite the first end when viewed along the central axis, and comprising at least one geometrically defined cutting edge, extending along a cutting edge profile of the cutting edge from a first cutting edge end facing the first end of the milling head in the direction of the second end of the milling head up to a second cutting edge end facing the second end of the milling head, wherein at least one cutting edge is formed as an intersecting line between the rake face associated with at least one cutting edge and a first flank face associated with at least one cutting edge, wherein at least one cutting edge is assigned a negative rake angle, a first clearance angle and a wedge angle. It is provided that a value of the negative rake angle in the region of the first cutting edge end has a different value than in the region of the second cutting edge end, that the first clearance angle in the region of the first cutting edge end has a different value than in the region of the second cutting edge end, and that the wedge angle along the cutting edge profile is constant.

A micro form end mill includes a tool shank (2) and a cutting head (3) fixedly connected to the tool shank (2). The cutting head (3) has a plurality of cutting teeth (Z), and each of the plurality of cutting teeth (Z) has a cutting edge (S). A maximum radial distance (A.sub.max) of cutting points (6, 7, 8, 9) on the cutting edge (S) from the longitudinal axis (L) is less than 0.5 mm. At least two of the cutting edges (S) are arranged with a radial offset (V) from one another at least regionally. The radial offset (V) corresponds to a difference in the radial distances from the longitudinal axis (L) of such cutting points (6, 7, 8, 9) to the at least two cutting edges (S) that lie in a common plane (E) that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (L).

A method of milling a profile of a railway rail comprises: rotating a milling cutter including a plurality of face mounted cutting inserts mounted about a periphery thereof; milling a railway rail with cutting edges of the cutting inserts rotating in a predetermined plane corresponding to at least a portion of a desired rail profile while controlling the depth of cut of the cutting inserts; traversing the railway rail with the milling cutter while milling the railway rail; and controlling the speed of traverse of the milling cutter along the railway rail.

A milling tool for an angle grinder has a supporting body, in the shape of a disk and able to be rotationally driven in a direction of rotation, which has an upper side and an underside. The supporting body is formed as a composite body of fiber-reinforced plastic. Cutting element chambers are formed in the supporting body, open to underside, in each of which one cutting element is replaceably arranged.

An end mill cutter (1; 100) includes a shaft (10) and a cutting head (20) with a number of helically running cutting webs (50), which are spaced apart from one another by means of flutes (30). The cutting webs (50) are divided into cutting web segments (60) at least over a portion of their length by a number of divider grooves (40) running helically in the opposite direction. The cutting head (20) is divided into a shaft-side cutting step (22) and an end face-side cutting step (24) adjoining the shaft-side cutting step (22) via a transition section (23) with a cutting diameter, which is smaller with respect to the shaft-side cutting step (22).
