Abstract
A face-milling insert, including a chip-removing main cutting edge adjacent to a first clearance surface, and a surface-wiping secondary edge adjacent to a second clearance surface, the main cutting edge forming an angle of 45° with an imaginary straight line in the extension of the secondary edge. Adjacent to a third clearance surface, an intermediate cutting edge is formed between the main cutting edge and the secondary edge, the intermediate cutting edge being shorter than the main cutting edge and forming an angle within a range of 20-40° with the extension line. The intermediate cutting edge transforms into the adjacent edges via arched part edges adjacent to convex clearance surfaces.
Claims6
A face-milling insert, comprising:
- a chip-removing main cutting edge adjacent to a first clearance surface;
- and
- a surface-wiping secondary edge adjacent to a second clearance surface, the main cutting edge forming an angle of 45° with an imaginary straight line in the extension of the secondary edge, wherein
- adjacent to a third clearance surface, an intermediate cutting edge is formed between the main cutting edge and the secondary edge, the intermediate cutting edge being shorter than the main cutting edge, and forming an angle smaller than 45° with the extension line, the intermediate cutting edge transforming into the adjacent edges via first and second arched part edges adjacent to convex clearance surfaces;
- and
- the first, arched part edge, which forms a transition between the secondary edge and the intermediate cutting edge, has a radius that is smaller than 1 mm and that is smaller than a radius of the second, arched part edge.
