Abstract
A cutting tool for high-speed machining has at least one cutting insert that is interchangeably mounted to a main body of the tool. At least parts of the supporting surface of the cutting insert and of the receiving surface of the main body of the tool, when viewed in cross section perpendicular to the axis of rotation, are of an approximately V-shaped configuration and are engaged with each other. The crown region and also at least one of the end regions of the V-shaped supporting surface and receiving surface are mutually relieved. A bearing surface on the main body of the tool, in order to radially support the cutting insert, is arranged in such a way that a mounted cutting insert is tilted such that the supporting surface of the main body and the receiving surface come into mutual contact at only two points.
