Abstract
A toolholder includes a pocket assembly having a nest section and a clamp section. An inverted nest is mounted in the nest section and includes an insert-receiving pocket for accommodating a cutting insert mounted therein. A clamping wedge is mounted in the clamp section in such a way that the cutting insert engages the clamping wedge. The inverted nest includes one or more coolant grooves that cooperate with the cutting insert for directing super critical carbon dioxide to a cutting tool/workpiece interface.
