Abstract
A clamping device for removably securing a cutting insert in a tool holder used in turning and milling operations, where the clamping device comprises a clamping lever and an actuating member. The clamping lever includes a first and second limb extending from a central elbow, the first limb having a clamping end portion with two independently resilient clamping fingers separated by a clamping slot and the second limb being operatively connected to the actuating member. Each of the independently resilient clamping fingers has a resilience axis of rotation and an upper clamping zone in clamping contact with the cutting insert, where the resilience axes of rotation are generally parallel to the slot width of the clamping slot.
