Abstract
A rotating tool includes a tool body which rotates around an axial line, four or more chip discharge grooves which are formed on an outer periphery of the tool body with gaps therebetween in a circumferential direction, and a plurality of cutting inserts which are arranged in multiple stages along the chip discharge grooves. In a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the axial line, when a center angle formed between a pair of virtual straight lines which connects each of the cutting edges of the cutting inserts disposed in a pair of chip discharge grooves adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction and the axial line to each other is defined as an angle, a plurality of angles formed around the axial line include one maximum angle (θmax), one minimum angle (θmin), and two or more angles other than the angle (θmax) and the angle (θmin).
