The second angle may be smaller than either of the first angle and the third angle in a cross section which includes the bisector and is orthogonal to the reference plane.

The present invention provides a novel groove cutter with chip breaker, comprising: a cutter body; a cutter head arranged at the end part of the cutter body, a cutting edge being arranged at a bordering position of the cutter head; and a chip breaker arranged on the cutter head, wherein the chip breaker comprises a breaker bottom and a breaker wall, the breaker bottom being connected to the cutting edge, the breaker wall being arranged on one side of the breaker bottom away from the cutting edge, the breaker bottom being non-coplanar with the breaker wall, an intersecting line of the breaker bottom and the breaker wall comprising multiple connecting sections, and one curved transition section being arranged between two adjacent connecting sections. By means of the technical solutions provided in the present application, the problem that breaking chips in a groove machining process is difficult in the prior art can be solved.

A turning insert includes a top surface, an opposite bottom surface, and a reference plane located parallel to and between the top and the bottom surfaces. A nose portion includes a convex nose cutting edge, and a first and a second cutting edge. The nose cutting edge connects the first and second cutting edges. The first and second cutting edges form a nose angle of 71-85° relative to each other. The nose portion has a third convex cutting edge adjacent to the first cutting edge and a fourth cutting edge adjacent to the third convex cutting edge. The fourth cutting edge forms an angle of 10-30° relative to a bisector. The distance from at least a portion of the fourth cutting edge to the reference plane increases at an increasing distance from the nose cutting edge. A second protrusion is arranged between the nose cutting edge and the first protrusion.

Provided is a cutting insert having two cutting parts that is capable of entering a workpiece more deeply and easily supports machining of a groove or hole having a small diameter in a workpiece. A cutting insert includes: a body having at least an inner surface to be fixed to a tool body of a cutting tool and an outer surface opposed to the inner surface; and two cutting parts protruding in opposite directions in a longitudinal direction of the body. The cutting part includes: a cutting upper surface; a cutting front surface; and a first cutting side surface and a second cutting side surface. A front cutting edge is located on an edge between the cutting upper surface and the cutting front surface. In a projection view of the body as seen from the longitudinal direction, the cutting upper surfaces of the two cutting parts are oriented in directions opposed to each other, and front cutting edges of the two cutting parts are disposed so as to be more away from each other as being closer to the first cutting side surface from the second cutting side surface.
