Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A milling tool with a disk- or strip-shaped base body, which can be driven around an axis of rotation, and several cutting inserts arranged along the outer circumference of the base body on opposite sides from one another, wherein the cutting inserts, viewed in the axial direction, overlap one another. The invention also relates to a tangential cutting insert for a milling tool of the above-mentioned type, with two side surfaces, through which a fastening opening extends, and two face ends, wherein cutting edges are formed at the junction of the front faces to the side surfaces, wherein the fastening opening is positioned eccentrically.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A tangential cutting insert for a milling tool comprising two side surfaces, through which a fastening opening extends, and two front faces, wherein cutting edges are formed at the junction of the front faces with the side surfaces, wherein the fastening opening is eccentric with respect to a middle plane, M, of the cutting insert. 2. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening opening does not intersect the middle plane, M, of the cutting insert or intersects the middle plane, M, of the cutting insert by no more than 20% of a diameter of the fastening opening. 3. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein the front faces have a parallelogram shape. 4. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein the front faces have a rectangular shape with a projecting bead. 5. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein the middle plane, M, extends parallel to the front faces.
