This disclosure relates to a metal-cutting machine tool with a base body, which is rotatable about an axis of rotation relative to a workpiece to be machined, at least one plate seat disposed outside the axis of rotation on the base body and a cutting insert, which is inserted into the plate seat and held therein by at least one fastening means and which is provided with a coating, at least in the area of its cutting edge. In order to compensate for positional tolerances, according to this disclosure the plate seat comprises a positioning surface oriented toward the axis of rotation, and the cutting insert has a reference surface lying against the positioning surface and facing away from the axis of rotation, for radially determining the position of its cutting edge, wherein the coating is also applied to the reference surface.

One-piece reamer cutting discs including integral engagement and cutting portions are disclosed. The engagement portion may allow for torque transmission and alignment of the reamer cutting disc on a reamer tool body. The integral engagement portion and cutting portion allows for the cutting portion to be provided closer to the end of the tool body. The one-piece reamer cutting discs may be mounted on a tool body having coolant outlets that direct coolant from the tool body to the exterior surface of the cutting disc.

A cutting tool for performing cutting operations on a workpiece when the cutting tool is rotated about a central axis by a machine tool, the cutting tool includes a generally cylindrical body disposed about the central axis. The generally cylindrical body includes a first end and an opposite second end. The cutting tool further includes a cutting portion and a mounting portion. The cutting portion is disposed at or about the first end of the generally cylindrical body and includes a number of cutting edges structured to engage the workpiece during cutting operations. The mounting portion is disposed at or about the opposite second end of the generally cylindrical body and is structured to be coupled to the machine tool. At least a portion of the generally cylindrical body comprises a molded portion formed via a molding process about the cutting portion in a manner that couples the cutting portion to the generally cylindrical body.
