Abstract
A method for cutting a groove of a predetermined groove width in a work piece, including the steps of providing a metallic work piece having a peripheral surface; providing a grooving tool including a blade portion having a constant or substantially constant blade width, and an insert having a maximum insert width defined by a main cutting edge; selecting the insert width to be greater than the blade width; connecting the grooving tool to a machine interface of a machine tool; rotating the work piece about a rotational axis thereof in a rotational direction; and cutting a groove in the work piece by moving the tool in a feed direction towards the rotational axis of the work piece, such that the groove width is equal to or substantially equal to the insert width and such that a tangential cutting force is directed towards or substantially towards the machine interface.
