A rotary cutting tool insert according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: an annular rake face provided with at least one recess portion; and a cutting edge formed at an outer circumference of the rake face, the recess portion having a width of more than or equal to 1.2 mm and less than or equal to 3.0 mm in a circumferential direction of the rake face, a distance between the cutting edge and an end of the recess portion at the outer circumference side of the rake face being more than or equal to 0.1 mm and less than or equal to 0.5 mm. According to the rotary cutting tool insert according to the one embodiment of the present invention, roughness of a processed surface and vibration due to a cutting process can be prevented.

A cutting tool according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a cutting edge portion which contains at least one of cubic boron nitride and polycrystalline diamond. The cutting edge portion includes a flank face, a negative land contiguous to the flank face, and a cutting edge formed by a ridgeline between the flank face and the negative land. At least one of the negative land and the flank face is provided with a plurality of recesses and a projection. The projection is formed by arranging the edges of adjacent recesses in contact with each other.

A cutting tool comprising at least one blade arranged at an axial cutting head end of a tool carrier. The tool carrier comprises a chip-removal space that receives material chips removed by the blade. In some embodiments, the blade is adjacent to a chip passage feeding into the chip-removal space, which passage is limited by a radial chip gap partially limited by the blade and from there by a first and second passage surface, the first passage surface a continuation of the chip surface of the blade, the second passage surface running at an angle and widening relative to same, and is closed and limited at least in an axial sub-section facing the cutting head end, all around by a peripheral wall as a third passage surface, wherein at least one coolant channel is formed within the peripheral wall, which is provided to guide coolant to the cutting head end.

A cutting insert according to an aspect includes a base portion and a cutting portion. The cutting portion includes an upper surface, a side surface, a ridge line including a first ridge line and a second ridge line, and an intersection point. The upper surface includes a top surface region and a rising surface region located between the top surface and the ridge line, and having a shape protruding toward the intersection point. In a top view, a first distance from the first ridge line to the rising surface increases as close to the intersection point, and a second distance from the second ridge line to the rising surface increases as close to the intersection point.

A cutting insert for a tool for machining a workpiece. The cutting insert comprises a rake face with a chip shaping geometry which is particularly suitable for machining titanium and titanium alloys. The chip shaping geometry is designed in such a way that the chip lifted from the workpiece is deformed comparatively strongly about its longitudinal axis. The chip shaping geometry is arranged at least in a rear area of the rake face, which is laterally bounded by a first concavely curved portion and a second concavely curved portion of the minor cutting edges of the cutting insert. The chip shaping geometry projects upwardly beyond a cutting plane in which the main cutting edge of the cutting insert and two rectilinear portions of the two minor cutting edges are arranged and comprises at least two elevations so that the rake face in the rear area in a further cross-section parallel to the main cutting edge comprises two high points and an intermediate second low point which has an equal third distance from the first concavely curved portion and the second concavely curved portion. A rake angle along the main cutting edge varies such that the rake angle ?1 at a center of the main cutting edge, which has an equal second distance from a first end and a second end of the main cutting edge, is greater than the rake angle in the area of the first and/or second ends.

A reversible cutting insert for milling including opposing and identically or substantially identically top and bottom surfaces interconnected by a continuous peripheral side surface, with a median plane located between the top and bottom surfaces and intersecting the side surface, and an insert axis perpendicular to the median plane about which the cutting insert is indexable. Each top and bottom surface is limited by a circumferential cutting edge intersecting the side surface, the circumferential cutting edge in a top view having the shape of a truncated equilateral triangle. Each circumferential cutting edge includes three analogous sets of cutting edges exhibiting three-fold rotational symmetry about the insert axis. A first cutting edge portion intersects a first support plane.

A workpiece applied for use with a cutting machine comprises a first outer surface, a second outer surface and a third outer surface. The third outer surface intersects the first outer surface and the second outer surface to define an extrusion-acting portion having an extruding portion. The workpiece can be used to form a cutter or a trimmed portion thereof. Accordingly, rapid production of cutters by molding machines can be realized, and blades of the molding machine for machining a produced cutter become readily replaceable. While a blade portion is machining, the extrusion-acting portion is applied to support and guide the workpiece, such that the surface machined by the blade portion can be extruded and polished simultaneously. Thus, machining qualities of the cutter, including finish, straightness and roundness, manufactured by applying the workpiece for the molding machine can be significantly improved.

A cutting insert may include an upper surface, a lower surface, a front cutting edge and a first lateral cutting edge. The upper surface may include a breaker protrusion. The first lateral cutting edge may include an inclined part which is closer to the lower surface as going away from the front cutting edge. The breaker protrusion may include a first region, a second region and a third region. The first region may be located further away from the lower surface than the inclined part. The second region may be located closer to the front cutting edge than the first region, and may be located closer to the lower surface than the inclined part. The third region may be located further away from the front cutting edge than the first region, and may be located closer to the lower surface than the inclined part.

The edge portion includes an upper surface, a side surface, and a land surface. The side surface has a front side surface and a pair of lateral side surfaces. An intersection between the land surface and the front side surface forms a front cutting edge. An intersection between the land surface and each of the pair of lateral side surfaces form a corresponding one of a pair of lateral cutting edges. The edge portion contains 80 vol % or more of diamond. A chip breaker recess is provided between the upper surface and the land surface. The surfaces forming the chip breaker recess include a rake face and a breaker wall surface. The upper surface has a front edge portion opposite to the front cutting edge from the chip breaker recess. A pair of protruding portions are provided to extend from the front edge portion toward the front cutting edge.

A cutting tool according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a cutting edge portion which contains at least one of cubic boron nitride and polycrystalline diamond. The cutting edge portion includes a flank face, a negative land contiguous to the flank face, and a cutting edge formed by a ridgeline between the flank face and the negative land. At least one of the negative land and the flank face is provided with a plurality of recesses and a projection. The projection is formed by arranging the edges of adjacent recesses in contact with each other.
