A circular cutting insert includes a top surface having a top edge portion, a side surface having a clearance surface and a clearance edge portion. A cutting edge is formed between the clearance edge portion and the top edge portion. The clearance edge portion and the top edge portion form a wedge angle. The wedge angle varies as a function of circumferential position about a central axis of the insert relative to a point on the cutting edge.

A family of cutting inserts includes a plurality of different inserts, each having a different geometry. Each insert of the plurality of different inserts is adapted to be mounted in a common insert-receiving pocket on a toolholder of a milling cutting tool so that an outer diameter generated by the milling cutting tool is the same, regardless which insert of the plurality of inserts is mounted in the pocket.

A cutting insert is provided. The cutting insert has a top surface, a side surface, and a bottom surface. An intersection between the top surface and the side surface defines a substantially circular cutting edge. The cutting edge includes at least one wiper edge and the side surface includes at least one wiper surface provided behind the wiper edge.
