A turning insert includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and side surfaces connecting the top and bottom surfaces. A reference plane is located parallel to and between the top surface and the bottom surface. A center axis intersects and extends perpendicular to the reference plane. Three nose portions are formed symmetrically around the center axis. Each nose portion has a first cutting edge, a second cutting edge and a convex nose cutting edge connecting the first and second cutting edges. As seen in in a top view, the first and second cutting edges on the same nose portion form a nose angle of 25-50°. The first cutting edge includes a first sub-portion and a second sub-portion. A distance from the nose cutting edge to the first sub-portion is shorter than a distance from the nose cutting edge to the second sub-portion.

Turning insert for metal cutting

A turning insert includes a top surface, an opposite bottom surface, and a reference plane located parallel to and between the top and the bottom surfaces. A nose portion includes a convex nose cutting edge, and a first and a second cutting edge. The nose cutting edge connects the first and second cutting edges. The first and second cutting edges form a nose angle of 71-85&#xb0; relative to each other. The nose portion has a third convex cutting edge adjacent to the first cutting edge and a fourth cutting edge adjacent to the third convex cutting edge. The fourth cutting edge forms an angle of 10-30&#xb0; relative to a bisector. The distance from at least a portion of the fourth cutting edge to the reference plane increases at an increasing distance from the nose cutting edge. A second protrusion is arranged between the nose cutting edge and the first protrusion.

Turning insert

The present disclosure relates to a polygonal turning insert having primary cutting edges, which individually include a nose edge and two main edges, which converge toward the same. Behind the nose edge, chip-directing guide surfaces are formed, on one hand, with a breast surface included in a knob situated behind the nose edge along a bisector between the main edges, and, on the other hand, with a pair of flank surfaces included in a land there behind. At a distance behind the knob, there is formed a second breast surface, the upper part of which is situated on a higher level than the upper part of the first breast surface. In such a way, it is guaranteed that thin chips, which tend to pass or jump over the first breast surface without being affected by the same, will impinge on the second, higher breast surface and be subjected to guiding by the same.
