Abstract
A machine reaming tool includes a base body with a plurality of insert receivers with cutting inserts that are inserted therein. The cutting inserts are inserted into insert receivers that each form a linear guide of the cutting inserts in a direction orthogonal to a rotation axis of the machine reaming tool. The linear guide is a prismatic sliding guide such as a dovetail guide. In particular, the dovetail guide is designed asymmetrically.
Claims17
A machine reaming tool, comprising a base body with a plurality of insert receivers with cutting inserts which are inserted therein;
- wherein the cutting inserts are inserted into insert receivers which each form a linear guide of the cutting inserts in a direction orthogonal to a rotation axis of the machine reaming tool.
A method for providing a machine reaming tool with a predefined cutting dimension comprises the steps:
- grinding a set of cutting inserts to a reference diameter;
- in accordance with the predefined cutting dimension, wherein the cutting dimension differs from the reference diameter, selecting a base body from a series of base bodies with different diameters;
- inserting the ground cutting inserts into the base body and adjusting the position of the cutting inserts in the respective insert receivers in accordance with the cutting dimension, in particular by way of a stop unit of the respective insert receiver.
