Abstract
A cutting tool () includes a cutting portion () and a clamping mechanism () configured to be brought between an unclamped position in which a cutting insert () is removable from the cutting portion (), and a clamped position in which the cutting insert () is clamped to the cutting portion (). The clamping mechanism () includes a clamp () and a cam shaft (). The clamp () is formed with a growth pattern region (C) having a varying diameter. The cam is formed with a growth pattern region (C) having a varying diameter. The growth pattern regions (CC) are configured for engaging each other to transform rotary motion of the cam shaft () into linear motion of the clamp () to thereby move the clamping mechanism () into the clamped position.
