Provided is a holder of a cutting insert that performs turning on a work by feeding a cutting edge in a Y axis direction which is different from a longitudinal direction (X axis) of a tool holder installed in a tool rest, and that can easily adjust the projection amount without contacting a part of the holder to the tool rest. A Y axis holder holds the cutting insert including a cutting edge to perform turning on a work that moves along the Z axis, and is installed in a state where relative movement in the X axis direction with respect to the tool rest is possible, such that a projection amount of the cutting insert along the X axis is changeable. The Y axis holder performs turning on the work using the cutting insert when the holder moves in the Y axis direction which is different from the X axis direction. The Y axis holder has a shape in which an end portion thereof in the X axis direction is projected from the cutting edge of the cutting insert, and a positioning portion to determine the projection amount of the cutting insert from the tool rest is disposed on the end portion.

An indexable parting blade has opposite blade first and second sides, a blade peripheral edge, a central index axis, and at least first, second and third insert pockets located along the blade peripheral edge. The parting blade also has first, second and third coolant channels, each forming a coolant path from a corresponding inlet to a corresponding one of the insert pockets. Each coolant channel includes a rake outlet opening out to a rake side of its corresponding insert pocket and a relief outlet opening out to a relief side of that same insert pocket. The inlet corresponding to a given coolant channel is located further from that coolant channel's insert pocket than at least one of (a) the inlet corresponding to a different coolant channel, and (b) the central index axis.

A holder provided for mounting of a lathe cutter includes a carrier, a first joint seat, a second joint seat, a limit rod and a clamp member. The first and second joint seats are disposed on a first and second base of the carrier respectively. The lathe cutter is mounted between the first and second joint seats. The limit rod is inserted into a through hole of the lathe cutter, and a first and second ends of the limit rod are coupled to the first and second joint seats respectively. The clamp member is disposed on the limit rod. The clamp member and the second joint seat are provided to clamp the lathe cutter to separate the lathe cutter from the first and second bases.

A cutting head attachment assembly for a cutting tool includes a body forming an axially forward part of the cutting tool attachable to a cutting head via a clamping element and a fixation element. A guide surface provided at the body or cutting head extends in both a radial and an axial direction to support movement of the clamping element in both the radial and axial directions via actuation of the fixation element to force and clamp together axially the head and body.

An indexable parting blade has opposite blade first and second sides, a blade peripheral edge, a central index axis, and at least first, second and third insert pockets located along the blade peripheral edge. The parting blade also has first, second and third coolant channels, each forming a coolant path from a corresponding inlet to a corresponding one of the insert pockets. Each coolant channel includes a rake outlet opening out to a rake side of its corresponding insert pocket and a relief outlet opening out to a relief side of that same insert pocket. The inlet corresponding to a given coolant channel is located further from that coolant channel's insert pocket than at least one of (a) the inlet corresponding to a different coolant channel, and (b) the central index axis.

A machine tool includes: a joint portion processing control means for controlling the processing of the joint portion in a joined workpiece such that a first workpiece is gripped by a grip section, and a predetermined region extending from a joint portion of a joined workpiece toward a second workpiece is processed over a range of not less than a predetermined width to have an outer diameter of not more than an outer diameter of the first workpiece; and a movement control means for controlling the movement of the joined workpiece so as to slidingly move the joined workpiece relative to the support section, from a state in which the first workpiece is supported by the support section, up to a state in which the second workpiece is supported by the support section.

A tool holder including a tool shank and a tool head connected to the tool shank. The tool head comprising an insert seat or a blade pocket. Adjacent to at least a portion of a shank side surface there is a reinforcement portion connecting the shank side surface and the tool head.

An indexable parting blade has opposite blade first and second sides, a blade peripheral edge, a central index axis, and at least first, second and third insert pockets located along the blade peripheral edge. The parting blade also has first, second and third coolant channels, each forming a coolant path from a corresponding inlet to a corresponding one of the insert pockets. Each coolant channel includes a rake outlet opening out to a rake side of its corresponding insert pocket and a relief outlet opening out to a relief side of that same insert pocket. The inlet corresponding to a given coolant channel is located further from that coolant channel's insert pocket than at least one of (a) the inlet corresponding to a different coolant channel, and (b) the central index axis.

A clamping member in a non-limiting aspect of the present disclosure may have a columnar shape extended from a first end to a second end. The clamping member may include an upper jaw, a lower jaw and a pocket. The upper jaw and the lower jaw may be located away from each other. The pocket may be located between the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The upper jaw may include a first member and a second member. The second member may be located closer to the first end than the first member. Hardness of the first member may be first hardness, and hardness of the second member may be second hardness. The first hardness may be different from the second hardness.

A tool coupling extends along a longitudinal axis and has a first component, a second component, and a clamp for fastening the first component to the second component. The first component has a male clamping portion, the second component has a female clamping portion, and the clamp is located in an inner cavity of the second component. The male clamping portion has a first abutment region located axially rearward of a first plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, the inner cavity has a second abutment region located axially forward of the first plane, and the first and second abutment regions face towards the first plane. In a fastened state, a clamp first engagement region of the clamp makes clamping contact with the male clamping portion's first abutment region, and a clamp second engagement region of the clamp makes clamping contact with the inner cavity's second abutment region.
