A drill has a first main body portion and a second main body portion. The first main body includes a chip discharging surface, a flank face, and an outer peripheral surface. A ridgeline between the chip discharging surface and the flank face constitutes a cutting edge. The chip discharging surface has an auxiliary flute surface provided in a form of a helix around a center axis, the auxiliary flute surface being contiguous to the cutting edge, the auxiliary flute surface being recessed in a direction opposite to a rotation direction of the drill. An auxiliary cutting edge portion has a first end portion and a second end portion. When viewed in a direction along the center axis, a value obtained by dividing the maximum value of the diameter of the second main body portion by the diameter of the first main body portion is 1.5 or more.

There is provided a drill tool assembly for drilling metallic or other materials, comprising a holder having a mounting slot in which a cutting insert is positioned, and a through tool coolant supply system. The drilling tool system allows for the application of coolant to the rake surfaces of the cutting insert in a manner which facilitates enabling higher penetration rates while maintaining integrity of the cutting edges of the cutting insert. The drilling tool system comprises a holder having a rotational axis and mounting slot. A cutting insert with sides positioned adjacent the side surfaces of the mounting slot and cutting edges extending from the rotational axis is mounted in the slot. The insert includes rake surfaces adjacent the cutting edges that are positioned above the mounting slot. At least one coolant channel is disposed with at least one coolant outlet directed at the sides of the insert at a position below the rake surfaces. The coolant outlet is configured to disperse coolant in a curtain across the entire rake face of each cutting edge.

An indexable drill insert includes a drill body having a central longitudinal rotational axis (CL), the drill body comprising a shank portion and a fluted cutting portion, the fluted cutting portion having a front clearance face and a plurality of flutes, the fluted cutting portion includes a central insert pocket capable of receiving a central cutting insert and a peripheral insert pocket capable of receiving a peripheral cutting insert. For the central cutting insert, a central, longitudinal axis of a projection of the flute coolant exit aperture can intersect a vertical plane (PA1) having an area (A1) or a horizontal plane (PB1) having an area (A2). For the peripheral cutting insert, the central, longitudinal axis of the projection can intersect a vertical plane (PA2) having an area (A3) or a horizontal plane (PB2) having an area (A4).

A drill (1) is provided with a body (10) and a head (30). The body (10) is formed of cemented carbide, and the head (30) is formed of PCD. Spiral coolant passages (17, 18) are provided inside the body (10). Oil holes (25, 26) are provided in a body-side joint surface of the body (10). The oil holes (25, 26) are outlets of the coolant passages (17, 18). Coolant passages (37, 38) provided inside the head (30) extend from oil holes (45, 46) provided at a tip (31) toward a rear end (32). A head-side joint surface of the head (30) is joined to the body-side joint surface. Two oil holes are provided in the head-side joint surface. The two oil holes are inlets of the coolant passages (37, 38), and communicate with the oil holes (25, 26) in the body-side joint surface.

A cutting tool system component, in particular a cutting tool or a cutting tool holder, is described. The cutting tool system component comprises a base body comprising a fluid inlet for supplying cooling and/or lubricating fluid to the cutting tool system component. A fluidic actuator and/or a fluidic detector is arranged inside the base body that has or have a fluid-conducting connection to the fluid inlet.

The present disclosure is directed toward a tooling assembly for a machine having an automatic tool changing system. The tooling assembly includes a holder, a tool body, and an internal passage defined within and extending through the holder and the tool body. The holder includes a machine interface configured to engage with a spindle of the machine. The internal passage is operable to have a coolant fluid flow within, and has a stem channel and a curved channel extending from the stem channel.

A modular drill includes a shank, a retaining pin, a cutting insert, and a locking pin. The shank includes a shank bore having an axial direction leading into the shank bore, and a locking pin opening. The retaining pin includes a retaining pin shaft axially movable positioned with the shank bore, the retaining pin shaft having a locking pin engagement surface. The retaining pin includes a retaining pin head having a retaining pin head engagement surface. The cutting insert includes a cutting insert passage for passing the retaining pin head therethrough; and a cutting insert cavity having a cutting insert engagement surface for engaging the retaining pin head engagement surface. The locking pin is for positioning within the locking pin opening and engaging with the locking pin engagement surface to force the retaining pin shaft to move further in the axial direction.

An insert holder includes a cutting portion and a shank portion. The insert holder further includes a cavity which includes a cavity chamber and a plurality of cavity through recesses which serve to reduce the weight of the insert holder. The plurality of cavity through recesses open out to the cavity chamber and to the periphery of the shank portion. A cutting tool is provided having a cutting insert releasably attached to the insert holder.

The invention relates to a cutting tool having at least one cavity arranged in the cutting tool, spaced apart from an outer contour of the cutting tool by a wear layer, wherein a thickness of the wear layer corresponds to a wear limit of the cutting tool, wherein an indicator substance is arranged in the cavity.
