A cutting tool includes a two-way indexable cutting insert clamped in a transversely oriented insert receiving pocket of an insert holder. The insert holder includes a forwardly located insert mounting portion that includes upper and lower jaws which together define the insert receiving pocket having a pocket front opening. The lower jaw includes a pocket lower clamping surface. The upper jaw includes a pocket upper clamping surface which faces mutually towards the pocket lower clamping surface and a pocket stopper surface facing generally towards the pocket front opening. The pocket stopper surface is closer to the pocket lower clamping surface and further from the pocket front opening, than the pocket upper clamping surface. The pocket stopper surface is further from the pocket rear opening than the pocket lower clamping surface.

A cutting tool includes a cutting insert resiliently clamped in an insert holder. The insert holder has a holder longitudinal axis defining opposite forward to rearward directions, and a transversely oriented insert receiving pocket having a pocket longitudinal axis and a pocket front opening. The insert holder includes a forwardly located insert mounting portion that includes upper and lower jaws which together define the insert receiving pocket. The insert receiving pocket at the lower jaw includes a pocket lower clamping surface. The insert receiving pocket at the upper jaw includes a pocket upper clamping surface which faces mutually towards the pocket lower clamping surface. The insert receiving pocket at one of the upper and lower jaws includes a pocket stopper surface facing generally towards the pocket front opening. The upper jaw includes an outer flexibility groove recessed in the holder peripheral surface.

Provided is a mobile machining system for a turning machining of inner surfaces of hollow-cylindrical components, in particular for machining valve seats. The machining system includes a second drive train and the third drive train in each case which preferably have a gear mechanism, in particular a planetary gear mechanism, which is arranged between the respective motor and the associated gearwheel which projects outward from the rotational part. This leads to a simple, inexpensive and space-saving construction.

A safe mode cross slide system having a cross slide with a back plate, a front plate and a saddle. The back plate can have a pair of end caps, a pair of linear guides, a first ball screw, a first gear box, a first servo motor, a first drive, and a first manual feed knob and the front plate can have a pair of end caps, a pair of linear guides, a second ball screw, a second gear box, a second servo motor, a second drive, and a second manual feed knob. The system can have a power supply, a communications hub with a processor and data storage.

A boring bar assembly, a feed assembly, an alignment device for a boring bar assembly. The boring bar assembly may include a boring bar extending along a bar axis; a drive unit including a drive unit housing, and a drive mechanism supported by the drive unit housing and operable to rotate the bar about the bar axis; a feed assembly configured to move the bar along the bar axis; and a lead screw engageable with the feed assembly and defining a lead screw axis

The holder includes a body having a rod shape extending from a first end surface to a second end surface and including a large-diameter portion which is a recess extending from the first end surface, a weight located in the large-diameter portion, a ring-shaped first elastic member, and a lid press-fitted into the large-diameter portion from the side of the first end surface. The inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion includes a first region located on the side of the first end surface and a second region located closer to the second end surface than the first region. The first elastic member comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion in the second region to fix the weight to the inner peripheral surface. The surface roughness of the second region is greater than the surface roughness of the first region.

A formed rotary cutting tool includes a cutting edge defining a cutting edge diameter that is increased and reduced in a direction of an axis of the tool, so as to have at least one neck portion in which the cutting edge diameter is minimized. The cutting tool includes a roughing portion which is provided on a periphery thereof and which is constituted by a succession of protrusions and recesses arranged in the direction of the axis. The roughing portion includes (i) a fine roughing portion that is provided in at least one of the at least one neck portion, and (ii) another portion that is provided in a portion that is other than the at least one of the at least one neck portion. The fine roughing portion of the roughing portion is different in characteristics from the above-described another portion of the roughing portion.

The invention relates to a groove cutting tool having: a body and a holder wherein the holder is slidably mounted in the body. The holder has a first end at which a blade is mounted and a second end, distal in a slidable direction of the holder, from the first end. A drive pinion, located towards the second end, is configured to be in rotational communication with the blade.

A machining tool has a body that includes a central tubular portion forming a duct centered on a longitudinal axis. A peripheral tubular portion is coaxial with the central tubular portion and surrounds the central tubular portion. A first machining stage has a first arm and a second arm that extend on either side of the central tubular portion. The first arm and the second arm each have a machining member at the end thereof. The first arm and the second arm are each integral with the central tubular portion and the peripheral tubular portion. The machining tool body also includes a baseplate. The peripheral tubular portion has at least one linking arch connecting the first arm and the second arm and bypassing the central tubular portion.
