Abstract
A face milling cutter comprises a holder adapted to be rotatable about an axis. A plurality of first cutting inserts, and a plurality of second cutting inserts are mounted in respective pockets of the holder. The first and second inserts alternate circumferentially with one another. The first and second inserts are identical and include a center hole for receiving a fastener screw. The central hole of the first inserts are oriented orthogonally relative to the center hole of the second inserts, whereby the first inserts are turned by about 90 degrees relative to the second inserts. The axial relationship of the second inserts relative to the first inserts is determined by shims disposed between the holder and respective ones of the second inserts.
