Abstract
A chip collector is proposed which can collect chips efficiently and which is easy to maintain and allows replacement of throwaway inserts without removing the cutting tool from a spindle of a machine tool. The cylindrical casing is divided into two casing halves, one of which is pivotable from the other around a hinge. The chip collector is provided with a sub-chamber connected to a chip suction port and a discharge duct connected to the sub-chamber. Also, a face milling cutter used in combination with the chip collector is proposed.
