A cutting tool comprises at least one cutting edge and at least one relief surface adjacent thereto. The relief surface is arranged to provide clearance behind the cutting edge between the cutting tool and a workpiece and comprises one or more grooves arranged to communicate, in use, a cutting media across the relief surface.

Cutting tool

A holder for a cutting tool includes a body having a first channel for receiving a stem portion of the cutting tool. The body has a second channel intersecting with the first channel. The holder further includes a plunger to be inserted in the second channel, the plunger having a third channel the cross section of which at least partly overlaps with the cross section of the first channel when the plunger is inserted into the body so as to enable the stem of the cutting tool to extend into the third channel when the stem is inserted in the first channel. The holder further includes a mechanism for locking the stem against movement relative to the body by means of the plunger. A cutting tool for use in such a holder and a cutting insert are also provided.

Holder for a cutting tool, a cutting tool and a cutting insert

A tool for the fine-turning of grooves in workpieces including a basic body having a rearwardly extending mounting part, and a forwardly projecting bracket. The bracket includes a narrow neck part and an enlarged support part disposed at an end of the neck part. The support part, which forms an insert seat, extends laterally from the neck part wherein the seat is arranged asymmetrically with respect to an imaginary center line of the basic body. A cutting insert includes a bottom side supported on the insert seat. The insert includes two spaced apart convexly arched side cutting edges arranged so that the imaginary center line passes therebetween. A hole is provided through the insert for receiving a fastening screw. The bottom side and the insert seat include mutually engaging stabilizing structures preventing angular displacement of the insert about an axis of the hole.
