A drill may include a body extending from a first end toward a second end, and the body may include an outer peripheral surface and a cutting edge. The cutting edge may include a first cutting edge and a second cutting edge. The second cutting edge may be positioned closer to the second end and the outer peripheral surface than the first cutting edge. The second cutting edge may include a first part, a second part and a third part. The second part may be positioned closer to the outer peripheral surface than the first part and may be positioned closer to the second end as close to the first part. The third part may be positioned closer to the first cutting edge than the first part and may be positioned closer to the second end as close to the first part.

A cutting head rotatable about a head axis has a cap portion and a rigid mounting protuberance joined to the cap portion. The cap portion has exactly four cutting portions circumferentially alternating with four head flutes and a head base surface facing in an axially rearward direction. The mounting protuberance extends axially rearwardly from the head base surface and has exactly two circumferentially spaced apart convex clamping surfaces. In a cross-section taken in a first horizontal plane perpendicular to the head axis and intersecting the mounting protuberance, only the two clamping surfaces are circumscribed by an imaginary first circle having a first diameter and a center coincident with the head axis. A rotary cutting tool has an elongated tool shank with a head receiving pocket at a forward end thereof and the cutting head of the type described above releasably secured to the head receiving pocket.

A method for producing a twist drill has the following steps. A blank is shaped to form a semi-finished product. The semi-finished product is formed from a core, coaxial with the drill axis, having a radius and a number of webs, arranged on the core, having a height. The semi-finished product has a constant cross section along the drill axis. The webs have a first portion which adjoins the core and in which a width of the web remains constant or decreases in the circumferential direction with increasing radial distance from the drill axis. The webs have a second portion which adjoins the first portion and in which the width of the web increases in the circumferential direction with increasing radial distance from the drill axis. The webs of the semi-finished product are shaped into helical segments using a plurality of rolling tools that annularly enclose the semi-finished product and roll on the webs along the drill axis. The rolling tools have teeth that are inclined with respect to the drill axis. A height of the helical segments is less than the height the webs. Helical segments formed from adjacent webs are in contact with one another in a closing fold. The invention also relates to a twist drill.

A drill bit has a tool shank, a center axis, a first cutting region with at least one geometrically defined first cutting edge, the same having a cutting face arranged at a radial distance from the center axis of the drill bit. The first cutting edge forms a countersink angle with the center axis. The drill bit having a chip shaping stage functionally assigned to the first cutting edge formed by the cutting face of the first cutting edge and by a shoulder surface adjoining the cutting face and forming a shoulder angle with the same, wherein the shoulder angle is greater than 90°, and preferably greater than 100°. The cutting face runs at a radial rake angle with respect to an imaginary radial line which cuts the first cutting edge, the same functionally assigned to the cutting face. The radial rake angle is positive.

According to one implementation, a drill has at least one cutting edge. A projected shape of a passing area of a ridgeline of the at least one cutting edge when the at least one cutting edge is rotated around a tool axis becomes a line-symmetric and discontinuous line along a parabola, two parabolas, an ellipse or two ellipses. The projected shape is drawn on a projection plane parallel to the tool axis.

The drill comprises a base body, which extends in the axial direction along an axis of rotation and rotates about the axis of rotation in a direction of rotation during operation. Into the base body are incorporated flutes and between consecutive flutes is formed a rear surface, which extends, in relation to the direction of rotation, from a leading flute to a trailing flute. On the rear surface in the region of the leading flute, a guide chamfer and a support chamfer spaced apart from it in the direction opposite the direction of rotation are formed, wherein the support chamfer, as radially outermost region, forms a support edge for a merely linear support.

A drill comprising: a drill main body; a chip discharge flute; and a tip cutting edge. The tip cutting edge includes: a first tip cutting edge which extends toward the axially posterior end as it goes toward the outside in a radial direction; and a second tip cutting edge which is disposed outside the first tip cutting edge in the radial direction. The second tip cutting edge extends toward the tip in the axis direction as it goes toward the outside in the radial direction or extends to be perpendicular to the axis. The radially inner end of the second tip cutting edge is disposed on the axially posterior end with respect to the radially outer end of the first tip cutting edge. The radially outer end of the second tip cutting edge is disposed on a virtual extension line of the first tip cutting edge.

The invention relates to a tool for forming a drilled hole (B), comprising a shank that is rotatable or rotates about a tool axis (A), at least one first portion, which is rotatable or rotates about the tool axis (A), for producing and/or widening a drilled hole (B) by chip cutting, and a second portion, which rotates about the tool axis (A), for widening a drilled hole (B) without chip cutting, wherein the second portion is arranged behind the first portion in a direction of advance (V) of the tool. The invention additionally relates to a method for producing a drilled hole (B).

A deburring chamfer tool has a main body including a working end for engaging a workpiece to be deburred. The working end is of a conical shape and has a first and a second cutting edge respectively extending lengthwise with reference to different slant reference lines which delimit the conical shape. Each of the first and the second cutting edges slope from a first end adjacent to the vertex of the conical shape to a second end adjacent to the base of the conical shape in a first length and a second length respectively. The second length is smaller than the first length.

The invention relates to a four-edged drill having two long main cutting edges, arranged in a point-symmetric manner with regard to the axis of rotation, which each extend from an outer circumferential cutting corner to a chisel edge in the middle of the drill tip, and two short main cutting edges, arranged in a point-symmetric manner with regard to the axis of rotation, which each extend from an outer circumferential cutting corner in the direction of the middle of the drill tip. According to the invention, each long main cutting edge has an outer partial cutting edge, extending from the cutting corner as far as a shoulder, and an inner partial cutting edge, extending from the shoulder as far as the chisel edge, said inner partial cutting edge having a greater cutting height (Δx) than the outer partial cutting edge and the short main cutting edges.
