Abstract
In an embodiment, a cutting insert includes a body member and a cutting member. The body member is a columnar body, and includes: an upper surface; a lower surface; and an outer side surface between the upper surface and the lower surface. The cutting member is located at a corner part of the outer side surface in the body member. The cutting member includes: at least three surfaces being exposed; and a cutting edge at an intersecting portion of two of the at least three surfaces. The body member includes a through hole penetrating through the upper surface and the lower surface.

A cutting insert, comprising:
- a body member having a columnar shape, and comprising:
- an upper surface comprising at least one corner part;
- a lower surface opposed to the upper surface;
- a side surface between the upper surface and the lower surface, comprising:
- a front side surface;
- an outer side surface;
- an inner side surface opposed to the outer side surface;
- and
- a corner region located between the front side surface and the outer side surface;
- and
- a through hole penetrating through the center of the upper surface and the center of the lower surface;
- and
- a cutting member located at the corner region, and comprising:
- at least three surfaces;
- and
- a cutting edge at an intersecting portion of two of the at least three surfaces,
- the cutting edge comprises:
- a first cutting edge extending in a direction from the upper surface toward the lower surface;
- and
- a second cutting edge extending in a direction along the lower surface,
- wherein, in a plan view of the lower surface, a first distance between the through hole and the front side surface is greater than a second distance between the front side surface and a rear end of the cutting member,
- wherein the cutting member does not touch the upper surface,
- wherein a third distance between the second cutting edge and the upper surface is greater than a fourth distance between the upper surface and the lower surface,
- wherein the lower surface comprises a protruding part, and
- wherein the third distance is greater than a fifth distance between the upper surface and the protruding part.
