专利摘要:
The invention relates to a face cutter intended for fine milling, which comprises a rotatable base body (1) and one or more interchangeable inserts (2), each of which includes a front face (7), a back side and a chip surface, which passes into the front side via a cutting edge. The cutting edge active cutting edge (10a) is located in a reference plane at right angles to the center axis of the base body (C 1), the insert being tipped into the base body in such a way that the front side (7) receives a release from the generated surface. In this case, the insert is placed at a negative radial angle (δ), which results in a rear end point (16) of the cutting edge moving in a circular path (S2), the radius (rg) of which is greater than the radius (r1) of that circular path S1), in which a front end point (15) moves. According to the invention, the front side (7) of the insert (2) and the chip surface form an angle of at most 83 ° with each other, the active cutting edge (10a) of the insert being straight and its entire length located in said reference plane, and said negative radial angle (δ) amounts to at least 700 Publication image Fig. 7

40 45 50 55 60 the inserts are circular and the arcuate line of the individual cutting edge has a large arrow height d. Another disadvantage of the known face milling cutter is that its inserts have a negative insert geometry, ie. the front and back sides have identical shapes and sizes, with each arbitrary generator extending beyond the curved chip surface extending at right angles to both the front side and the back side. This means that the material to be released will be pushed (rotationally) in front of the chip surface and pressed into the surface of the unit rather than being cut or peeled away from it. Another disadvantage of the face cutter described in US 4743144 - which is shown equipped with a plurality of inserts - is that the individual insert is releasably mounted in a seat in a cassette, which in turn is semi-permanently fixed in a peripheral pocket in the base body, more specifically using a screw connection. Unlike such cutters, in which the seats of the inserts are recessed directly in the base body itself, such cassettes give rise to a number of problems, including a complicated and expensive manufacture of the face cutter as a whole, as well as a tricky adjustment of the inserts in order to locate all active cutting edges in exactly one and the same plane. In this case, the mere presence of a number of cassettes, which cannot with certainty be mounted completely unshakable in the basic body, constitute sources of risk.
OBJECTS AND FEATURES OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims at obviating the above-mentioned disadvantages of the face mill previously known from US 4743144. A primary object of the invention is therefore to create a face mill which is capable of removing a thin surface shell from workpieces with slightly or moderately uneven surfaces while leaving a finished surface with an extraordinarily high surface finish. In the applications intended for face milling, the cutting depth is of secondary importance and can in practice be maximized to approx. 0.5 mm, whereby a surface finish of down to 1 μm must be measurable. A further object of the invention is to create a face mill which can work with short machining operations per machined surface unit; all with the ultimate aim of minimizing the cost of the current machining operation. Furthermore, the tool's interchangeable inserts must be not only easy to cut in order to enable fast cutting processes, but also strong to ensure an optimal service life and good machining economy. Yet another object of the invention is to create a face mill which can be equipped with a large number of inserts without the imminent risk that these will be mounted incorrectly in relation to the plane or line along which the smooth surface is to be generated. It must also be possible to manufacture the face mill and its handling in an efficient and economical manner. According to the invention, at least the primary object is achieved by means of the features stated in the characterizing part of independent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the face mill according to the invention are further stated in the independent claims 2-17.
Before the invention is further described, it is of vital importance to keep apart the characteristics of the insert according to the invention, when the same is considered, on the one hand, alone next to the base body, and, on the other hand, mounted in the base body. In the first condition, the insert is generally considered and defined in either planar projection or side projection, with occurring clearances, clearance angles, and rake angles being nominal and related to the insert's own center axis, its chip surfaces and its front and lower sides. In the condition mounted in the base body, on the other hand, the cutting and clearing angles of the insert are functional or effective and depend on the geometry of the base body. In other words, said angles are different depending on whether they are nominal, ie. specific to the insert only as such, or effective, namely in the position typed in the tool. In the following text, one and the same surface on the insert of the face mill, which has the shape of a polygon, will be referred to as either "side surface" or "chip surface". Thus, the term "side surface" is used when referring to the geometric shape of the polygon, while "chip surface" refers to the function of the surface in connection with a cooperating cutting edge separating the chips from the workpiece.
In order to further facilitate the understanding of the nature of the invention, a fundamental difference between, on the one hand, conventional face milling cutters and, on the other hand, fine milling cutters of the type described in US 4743144 and objects of the present invention will be clarified. A conventional, evenly thick indexable cutter generally has a flat shape, characterized in that at least one of a pair of top and bottom sides (or front and back sides) serves as a chip surface, while the usually narrow side surfaces, which together with the chip surface delimits a number of cutting edges, serves as clearance surfaces. Each active cutting edge comprises on the one hand a chip separating main edge and on the other hand a surface wiping bevel or planar phase edge, the former rotating in a circular path and effecting the actual chip separation while generating a rotating surface, while the latter moves together with the other inserts in the other inserts. plane, which extends at right angles to the center axis of the cutter or base body to generate a flat surface. While each of the main edges, which forms a certain setting angle relative to said plane, digs out the chips from the workpiece, the working edges in a common plane effect a smoothing or smoothing of the generated, flat surface without producing any chips of appreciable size.
In this case, the inserts are tipped into the base body in such a way that both the comparatively narrow side surfaces or clearance surfaces, which are present rotationally behind the chip-separating main edges, release from the rotationally symmetrical surface generated by them, while the surfaces which are located rotationally , releases from the generated, flat surface. To enable appreciable cutting depths, the chip separating main edges are generally longer than the surface wiping edges. The insert used in the face mill according to US 4743144 also generally has a flat basic shape to the extent that its front and back sides are flat and mutually parallel. In this case, however, neither the front nor the back serves as a chip surface, but on the contrary the comparatively narrow side surface (s) extending between the front and back sides. In this case, the individual cutting edge is delimited between the chip surface (which is characterized by being arched or round) and the flat front side, which is facing away from the front end surface of the base body. The actual chip separation therefore takes place in the plane common to the cutting edges, rather than along some peripheral surface of rotation.
Further elucidation of the prior art A face mill with basically the same design as the face mill according to US 4743144, is further known from JP 52-35160 9/1977. In this case, the effective cutting edges of the inserts are per se straight and located in a common plane, as stipulated according to the present invention. However, serious disadvantages of this face mill are that the negative radial angle of the cutting edges is very limited (less than 45 °), and that the effective rake angle of the insert, ie. the angle between the chip surface of the individual insert and the flat surface to be generated is negative, i.e. less than 90 °. The limited negative radial angle means that the insert will be subjected to very large stresses, not only when it enters the workpiece but also thereafter. This in combination with the negative rake angle makes the insert sluggishly cutting, whereby the sheared metal material tends to be pressed inwards / downwards against the raw surface rather than being moved in the direction away from it. In addition, the force required for feeding the cutter becomes comparatively large. 125 130 135 140 145 Brief description of the accompanying drawings Fig.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION The face milling cutter according to the invention shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises partly a base or milling cutter 1 and a number of interchangeable inserts 2. geometric center axis C1, about which the base body is rotatable, more precisely in a single predetermined direction of rotation R. The front end of the base body is represented in the example by a flat, generally circular end surface 3, which extends at right angles to the center axis C1. In the rearward direction from the front end surface 3, a rotationally symmetrical, partly cylindrical, partly conical circumferential surface 5 extends, which is concentric with the center axis C1. The rear end 4 is in this case included in a male coupling part 6 of the type COROMANT CAPTO®, by means of which the basic body can be coupled to a spindle in a machine for transmitting torque thereto. A traction mechanism can be inserted into a cavity 6a, by means of which the male-like coupling part can be pulled into a cooperating female part included in the machine.
In the usual way, the base body 1 can be made of steel or aluminum, while the individual insert is made of a harder material, e.g. cemented carbide, ceramic, cerrnet, or the like.
Each individual insert 2 in this example is triangular and indexable. To allow indexing, in this case between three different modes, the same is generally evenly thick.
In Fig. 2 the planar cutter according to the invention is illustrated during fine milling of a general plane, although unprocessed surface US on a workpiece WP schematically shown in the form of a parallelepiped, more precisely by the cutter being fed longitudinally in the direction F at the same time rotating in the direction of rotation R. or peel off a surface layer SL, the thickness of which in practice may be in the range 0.1-0.5 mm, while exposing a finished surface FS. The milling is carried out in the example during counter-milling, although co-milling is also conceivable.
Reference is now made to Figs. 3-6, which on an enlarged scale illustrate the detailed design of the insert 2. The insert comprises a front side 7 and a back side 8, between which three side surfaces 9 extend, which meet each other in corners generally designated 11. The geometric triangle defining the basic shape of the insert is equilateral, whereby the angle u between each e pairs of cutting edges 10, which meet in a corner 11, amount to 60 °.
Characteristic of the cutting insert 2 according to the invention is partly that the cutting edges 10 are straight, partly that the same can be said to have a positive, nominal cutting geometry, more precisely in that the front side 7 area is larger than the back side 8, the angle ß between the front side 7 and the individual chip surface 9 is pointed, ie. less than 90 °. In the example shown, the angle ß amounts to 790. This means that the nominal clearance angle y (see Fig. 6) between the front side 7 and an imaginary plane IP at right angles to the chip surface 9, will amount to 11 °. In practice, the angle ß can deviate from just 79 °. However, on the one hand, it should not exceed 83 ° and, on the other hand, not fall below 65 °.
In the example, a cutting edge 10 is delimited between the front side 7 and each of the side surfaces 9. In other words, the insert in this case comprises three alternately useful cutting edges 10, all three side surfaces 9 forming chip surfaces in connection with the cutting edges.
As can be seen from Fig. 5, the cutting edge 10 extends between two end points 15, 16 and has a length denoted by L1 between them. In extension of the individual cutting edge 10, which forms a primary, chip-separating cutting edge, in the shown preferred embodiment a secondary cutting edge 12 is formed, more precisely in connection with a corner 11. In the example, where the cutting insert has a triangular basic shape, the secondary cutting edge 12 is convex and arcuate by being delimited between the front side 7 and a convexly curved corner surface 13, which forms a transition between the two chip surfaces 9, which meet each other in the corner 11. In the example, the corner surface 13 tapers in the rearward direction from the secondary cutting edge 12 and merges into an iron-narrow sub-surface 13a.
L2 is a measure of how far the secondary cutting edge 12 extends (viewed in side projection) in extension of the primary, straight cutting edge 10. As shown in Fig. 5, L2 amounts to only a fraction (approx. 1/80) of L1, more precisely due to the fact that the radius of the cutting edge 12 is relatively small. Of course, this radius can be made larger, whereby L2 increases in relation to L1. It may also be mentioned that the corner surface 13 can be made evenly narrow along its entire extent between the front side 7 and the back side 8. 210 215 220 225 230 235 In the example shown, not only the front side 7 and the back side 8 consist of flat surfaces, but also each chip surface 9. In this context, it should be noted that the flat back 8 in the example includes a shallow recess 8a, which is surrounded by a triangular, border-like rim 8b, which has the direct contact with the base body. Furthermore, the chip surface 9 could also be concave viewed in cross section.
A through hole 14 runs between the front and rear sides 7, 8. This hole, the center axis of which is designated C2, is centric in that the radial distances from its center axis C2 to all cutting edges 10 and corner II, respectively, are equal. In addition to a cylindrical part, the hole 14 includes a cone surface 14a (see Fig. 4) in connection with the front side 7.
The size of the insert can vary very considerably. In practice, however, the length L1 of the primary cutting edge 10 may be in the range of 5-25 mm. In order for the insert to obtain its flat basic shape, its thickness T (see Fig. 6) must be significantly less than the cutting edge length L1. In the example shown, the thickness T amounts to approx. 25% of the cutting edge length L1. In practice, T should amount to a maximum of 40% and a minimum of 15% of Ll.
Reference is now made to Figs. 7, 8 and 9, of which the former shows the basic body 1 in end view from the front. It should be noted that the basic body in this condition is intended to assume the same position as in Figs. 1 and 2, i.e. with the center axis C1 oriented horizontally and the end face 3 vertically.
In the embodiment shown, the base body 1 is equipped with ten indexable inserts 2, which are shown evenly distributed along the periphery of the base body with a pitch angle of 36 °. In the mounted condition of the insert according to Fig. 7, only one of the three cutting edges 10 is active, while the other two are inactive. To distinguish the functional states of the cutting edges from each other, the active cutting edge has been provided with the suffix "a", while the two inactive cutting edges carry the suffix "b".
Each insert 2 is mounted in a seat or cutting position recessed in the base body, generally designated 17. This seat is delimited by a bottom surface 18 and two side support surfaces 19, 20, which, viewed in plan view according to Fig. 7, form a 60 ° angle with each other in order to be able to receive an inner corner portion of the insert 2. Radially inside the two side support surfaces 19, 20 there is a clearance space 21, in which the innermost part of the insert can be accommodated without having contact with the side support surfaces 19, 20. In the preferred embodiment shown the seats 17 are peripherally 240 245 250 255 260 265 placed along the base body 1, the same opening not only in the end surface 3 but also in the mantle surface 5.
A threaded hole 22 opens into the bottom surface 18 of the seat 17, into which a male thread 23 of a fixing screw 24 (see Fig. 1) can be tightened. This screw 24, which in addition to the male thread 23 includes a partially conical head 25 for abutment against the conical surface 12a in the hole 12, is in the example of the type which in professional circles is referred to as "spring biased". This means that the screw, which is suitably made of steel with a certain inherent elasticity, can bend. Because the center hole 12 in the insert is located at a slightly greater distance from the inactive chip surfaces 9 than the hole 22 from the two side support surfaces 19, 20, the screw will therefore not only press the back 8 of the insert against the bottom surface 18 of the seat, but also press the insert in a radially inward direction, so that the chip surfaces 9 of the two inactive cutting edges 10 are pressed against the side support surfaces 19, 20.
In practice, the various seats 17 can be manufactured with very high dimensional accuracy, e.g. by means of a end mill, which includes cutting edges along both its mantle surface and its end surface. In this way, the seats can be milled out in such a way that all bottom surfaces 18 are accurately located at one and the same level relative to the end surface 3 of the base body.
The spatial location of each seat 17 is such that the operative cutting edge 10a on each insert 2 will form a negative radial angle med with an imaginary radial line e A (see Fig. 7) extending from the center axis C1 of the base body and intersecting it. one of the two end points of the cutting edge 10a, namely a first end point 15, which precedes the second end point 16 during the rotation of the cutter. According to the invention, this radial angle skall should amount to at least 70 °. As further shown in Fig. 7, the front end point 15 of the active cutting edge 10a moves during the rotation of the cutter in a circular path S1, the radius of which is denoted r1, while the rotational subsequent the end point 16 moves in a circular path S2, the radius of which is denoted rg. Since the end point 16 is located further out from the center axis C1 than the end point 15, the radius rg will of course be larger than the radius r1. The difference between r1 and rg is indicated in Fig. 7 W. This dimension defines the width of the annular (circular) surface, which the cutting edge 10a crosses during the rotation of the cutter (without table feed). The width dimension W depends on both the radial angle δ and the cutting edge length L1, and can vary from one application to the other. In the example according to Fig. 7, W amounts to approx. 12% of the radius r2 of the circular path S2 and 270 275 280 285 290 295 10 should in practice be in the range 5-20% of rg. In other words, r1 should amount to at least 80% and at most 95% of rg. An increase in W can take place either by increasing the cutting edge length L1 or decreasing the radial angle δ, or a combination of both of these measures. A decrease in W occurs in the reverse way.
In this connection it should be pointed out that the radial angle Ö of the cutting edge 10 may even be greater than 90 °; however, only provided that r 2> r1.
In Fig. 7 it should further be noted that a central, continuous channel 26 (see also Fig. 1) opens into the front end surface 3 of the base body. This channel has the task of transporting coolant or Lubricant from a trailing machine behind to the working inserts. .
Reference is now made to Figs. 8 and 9, which illustrate partly whether the individual insert 2 is tipped at a certain clearance angle in the base body 1, and partly whether the active, straight cutting edges 10a on all inserts 2 are located in a common reference plane RP, which is axially ﬁ sleeve in the forward direction from the front end surface 3 of the base body. This front end surface is in the example flat and parallel to the reference plane RP. The clearance angle s shown in Fig. 8, which in practice is moderate and can amount to the order of 2 to 3 °, is achieved by locating the bottom surface 18 of the seat at the same angle in relation to the front end surface 3 of the base body. the cutting edge 10a (also note the section VIII-VIII in Fig. 7), whereby the entire front side 7 of the insert which is located rotationally behind / inside the cutting edge 10a, will drop from the flat surface generated by the cutting edge.
In other words, during operation, the front side 7 will serve as a clearing surface on the insert, while the side surface 9 will serve as a chip surface.
In Fig. 9, "d" denotes the axial distance between the front end surface 3 of the base body and the reference plane RP. This dimension "d" must be greater than 0.5 mm, in which case the maximum cutting depth is calculated to be exactly 0.5 mm, but without significantly exceeding this value. The dimension "d" can therefore advantageously be in the range 0.5-1.0 mm. If the cutter is designed for maximum cutting depths, which are less than 0.5 mm, the "d" can of course be reduced accordingly. In this connection it should be pointed out that the chips separated along the entire length of the active cutting edge 10 will be thrown out radially to the side outside the milling cutter without penetrating into the gap provided between the end surface 3 and the generated surface in the workpiece. 300 305 310 315 320 325 11 As previously pointed out, the nominal clearance angle γ of the insert 2 in the example amounts to 11 ° (90 ° - 79 ° = 11 °). In its condition mounted in the base body, the insert is tipped at an angle s = 2 °. The consequence of this is that the effective rake angle o of the insert o (see Fig. 8), ie. the angle between the chip surface 9 and an imaginary plane at right angles to the surface to be generated will amount to approx. 9 ° (110 - 2 ° = 9 °).
Function and advantages of the invention In order to clarify in a simple manner the function and advantages of the invention, reference is now made to the schematic diagrams in Figs. 10-12. Here it is to be imagined that a flat surface E (e.g. ground) is to be released from a surface layer Y of granular material (e.g. snow or gravel) by pushing a blade 100 (e.g. a shovel) linearly along the substrate for exposing a strip G, which is straight (as opposed to circular in connection with milling). In Fig. 10 the blade 100 is advanced at a moderate angle 51 (approx. 35 °) towards a normal A towards the feed direction F. This means that the width W1 of the exposed strip H (cf. the dimension W in Fig. 7) becomes comparatively large, and that a considerable amount of surface material must be set aside. The force required to repel the material therefore becomes considerable, namely due to the fact that the angle 51 is moderate. In Fig. 11, on the other hand, the same blade 100 is advanced at an angle 82 which is approximately twice as large as the angle 51. This means that the force required to push the blade forward becomes considerably smaller.
This gain in force takes place per se at the expense of a reduction in the width W2 of the lane G; but in many contexts the power reduction is decisive for whether the exposure can be carried out without problems. Fig. 12 further shows that the blade 100 is inclined in the upward / backward direction from the substrate viewed in the direction of movement (cf. the effective rake angle v of the chip surface 9 in relation to the surface to be generated). Like a wedge, the blade therefore lifts the material from the substrate and facilitates its removal from it.
With the analogy illustrated in Figs. 10-12 in mind, it should be pointed out that the function of the face mill according to the invention is based on a combination of three intimately related features, namely: a) that the negative radial angle ö of the active cutting edge is large by amounting to at least 70 °, b) that the effective rake angle o of the insert is positive, and c) that all active cutting edges are straight and located in a common plane. 330 335 340 345 350 355 12 In isolation, the feature “a” has the advantage that the active cutting edge easily cuts through the surface layer of the workpiece. In addition, the insertion of the workpiece into the workpiece is facilitated by the active cutting edge cutting into the material successively, comparatively slowly and thus smoothly, ie. without being briefly subjected to any abrupt and strong resistance to the rotating motion. The feature "b" ensures that the metal chips broken off by the cutting edge, and in practice short the metal chips, are applied in an effort to be thrown out of the machined surface. In this respect, the cutting edge can be likened to a wedge or a doctor blade, which splits or peels off the surface layer and singles away the chips from the finished surface to be generated. The fact that the cutting edges, due to their large negative radial angle, throw the chips radially out from the base body, rather than forwards in the direction of rotation (especially when the rotational speed and thus the centrifugal force is large) also contributes to a good chip evacuation. The feature "c" in turn ensures that the generated surface obtains an optimal flatness and surface fineness, without any concave grooves or other disturbing, visible irregularities, such as scratches, grooves or bumps. Practical tests with the face mill according to the invention have thus shown that a surface fineness of R1, 1 um or better can be measured.
Reference is now made to Fig. 13, in which it is illustrated how the face mill according to the invention can also be used for fine milling of surfaces other than just planes, e.g. cylindrical or conical. In the example, a cylindrical workpiece WP is clamped in a chuck, by means of which the same can be made to rotate at a comparatively moderate speed, more specifically about a geometric center axis C3. The face mill according to the invention is arranged with its center axis C1 at right angles to CS. By longitudinally feeding the cutter in either of the two directions indicated by the double arrow in Fig. 13, along a generator along the cylinder surface of the workpiece, while rotating the cutter at a relatively high speed, a thin surface layer can be peeled off from the cylinder surface while learning a machined, cylindrical surface with great finish.
In this context, it should be emphasized that the chip cutting of the individual insert takes place mainly along the straight, primary cutting edge 10. However, the secondary cutting edge 12, which is located closest to the rotational rear end point 16 of the primary cutting edge, also participates to some extent. is tipped at the angle s relative to the reference plane RP, more specifically around the edge line of the primary cutting edge 10, the secondary cutting edge 12 will also assume an inclined position relative to the reference plane RP and thus relative to the generated, flat surface in the workpiece. The result of this is that the secondary cutting edge 12 during the rotation and feeding of the cutter cuts out of a concave rotating surface in the remaining, unprocessed surface layer. This means that the secondary cutting edge also helps to make the insert easy to cut.
Reference is now made to Figs. 14-18, which illustrate an alternative tool design which uses square inserts 2 instead of triangular ones. In this case, the individual seat 17 in the base body 1 is U-shaped instead of V-shaped. More specifically, in addition to a bottom surface 18, the seat comprises two side support surfaces 19, 20, which are oriented at a 90 ° angle to each other. The third side surface 20a, which is opposite the side support surface 20, is spaced from the latter by a distance which is greater than the distance between two diametrically opposite chip surfaces 9. This means that only the chip surfaces in connection with two inactive cutting edges receive support, namely against the side support surfaces 19 , 20, while the chip surface adjacent to the third, idle cutting edge has no contact with the seat. Otherwise, the active cutting edge 10a is flared relative to the periphery of the base body in the manner previously described, i.e. so that the rotationally trailing end point 16 of the cutting edge is located at a greater radial distance from the center axis C1 than the preceding 15.
From Fig. 16 it can be seen that the angle ß between the chip surface 9 and the front side 7 is smaller than in the previous example. More specifically, in this case ß amounts to 70 °, which means that the nominal clearance angle γ becomes 20 °. In its mounted condition, the insert therefore obtains an effective rake angle of approx. 18 °, where the effective clearance angle of the insert still amounts to 2 ° (20 ° - 2 ° = 18 °). An advantage of the square insert according to Figs. 15-18 in comparison with the previously described, triangular insert, is of course that a further, fourth insert edge can be used before the insert must be discarded.
In the square insert 2 shown, the secondary edge section 12 between each pair of facing primary cutting edges comprises a straight edge section 12a and two arcuate edge sections 12b, 12c between the straight edge section and the two primary cutting edges 10. The straight edge section 12a joins to a flat chip surface 9a and forms an obtuse angle u) (see Fig. 17) with the primary cutting edge 10. In the example, o) amounts to 135 °.
The arcuate edge sections 12b, 12c are connected to convexly curved chip surfaces 9b, 9c.
As shown in Fig. 17, the two edge sections 12b, 12c may have one and the same radius R. It should further be noted that the dimension L2 in this case is comparatively large in relation to the dimension L1. 390 395 400 405 410 415 14 During the chip separation, in addition to the primary, straight cutting edge 10, at least the adjacent edge section 12b participates. If the depth of cut is very small, only the edge section l2b participates, but at greater depths of cut, the straight edge section l2a also participates.
To the extent that the depth of cut would be approximately maximum, ie. up to 0.5 mm, the third edge section 12c can also come into operation.
Figs. 19-21 show a triangular insert 2, the secondary edge section 12 of which, in extension of a primary, straight edge section 10, has a concave shape by being delimited between the front side 7 and a concave arched surface 9d. Thanks to the concave shape of the sub-surface 12d, an extremely sharp, second cutting edge 28 (corner edge) can be formed between it and a nearby (inactive) chip surface 9, which can effectively cut into the surface layer to be removed. The length L2 and radius R of the secondary edge section 12 may vary. In the example, the length L1 of the primary edge section 10 amounts to 14.3 mm and L2 to 2.1 mm, the radius R amounting to 3 mm. The arc height d H of the arc formation then becomes 0.2 mm. The obtuse angle X (= 90 ° + y in Fig. 16) between the chip surface 9 and the front surface 7 in the example amounts to 101 °, the angle (p between the deepest part of the partial surface 12d and the front side 7 amounting to 99 °.
Regarding the insert according to the invention, this should be considered in intimate connection with the current type of face mill, ie. a cutter having the task of peeling off only a thin surface layer, its inserts being flat and comprising comparatively narrow chip surfaces, which separate chips in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the cutter. Simply put, the cutting edges can therefore be said to work horizontally instead of vertically, as is the case with conventional face mills. In other words, the insert should be compared with such inserts as shown in the aforementioned US and JP documents, but not with conventional, flat face mill inserts, whose narrow side surfaces form clearance surfaces, while their front sides form chip surfaces.
Fig. 22 shows a modified embodiment of the described triangular insert 2. In this case, a pit or recess 27 is formed in the chip surface 9, which serves as a chip breaker. The shape and size of this chip breaker can vary very considerably depending on the specific application of the cutter, which depends, among other things, on the material to be machined. Although only one chip breaker 27 is shown schematically in Fig. 14, of course all chip surfaces 9 should be designed in the same way. Also, the previously described concave sub-surface 12d defines a recess, which to some extent serves as a chip breaker. 420 425 430 435 440 445 450 15 As previously mentioned, the radial angle skall shall be at least 70 °, whereby it may even exceed 90 °. In practice, however, radial angles in the range 75-85 °, preferably 77-8l ° are preferred. The effective clearance angle s of the insert 2 should not be less than 2 °, but also not exceed 40. In order to create a sufficiently large effective rake angle o for the insert, it should therefore have a nominal clearance angle y, which amounts to at least 7 °. On the other hand, y should not exceed 25 °. Advantageously, y can be in the range 10-20 °.
Possible modifications of the invention The invention is not limited only to the embodiments described above and shown in the drawings. Thus, it is conceivable to construct the inventive face mill with both more and fewer inserts than just ten, e.g. only one. To the extent that the cutter is equipped with ﬂ your inserts, these do not necessarily have to be evenly distributed. Nor do they necessarily have to be equidistantly spaced from the central axis of the base body. Furthermore, the inserts / inserts need not be circumferentially located along the milling body. Thus, the individual insert can be mounted in a seat, which is recessed in the end surface of the milling body without opening in the mantle surface. Instead of screws, other means can be used to fix the insert, e.g. a clamping mechanism built into the milling body. If necessary, adjusting devices can also be built into the milling cutter to individually adjust the spatial positions of the different inserts. To the extent that chip breakers in the form of recesses are formed in the chip surfaces of the insert, these can be given a highly variable design, which deviates from that exemplified in Fig. 22. For example, it is possible to extend the individual recess, to such an extent that it extends substantially along the entire length of the chip surface. In this case, the edge-forming material portion delimiting the recess can be given a rake angle which is considerably smaller than the rake angle ß exemplified in the drawings. It may also be mentioned that both front and rear sides of the insert can advantageously be ground to ensure meticulous positional accuracy in the mounted condition of the insert. Furthermore, the individual chip surface does not necessarily have to be flat. It can also be concavely arched in cross section. In this context, it should also be pointed out that the term 'straight cutting edge' should also be considered to include such cutting edges which, during manufacture, obtain microscopic shape deviations from absolute straightness. Thus, in order to avoid that the cutting edge acquires a concave contour shape (which is considered by those skilled in the art to be devastating for the smoothness of the machined surface), it is common to design the required molding presses in such a way that the chip surfaces and the adjacent cutting edges amount to one or a few micrometers.
When the outcome of the production is good, these bombings remain, but if the outcome becomes worse, 455 460 465 16 e.g. by shrinking along the periphery, they ensure that the pre-sintered cutting edge does not become concave in any case. Although the front end face of the base body in the examples is flat and extends in a plane perpendicular to the center axis, it does not necessarily have to be flat. Thus, the end face could be arched, in particular concavely arched, its peripheral, circular boundary line e being located in said plane. In the drawings, the inserts have been illustrated with sharp cutting edges, along which a flat front side meets flat chip surfaces along simple, straight edge lines. In the usual way, these edge lines can be reinforced in various ways, e.g. by designing reinforcement phases between the same or by brushing with slight rounding of the same. The basic body of the cutter can also be connected to the driving machine by means of connections other than the COROMANT CAPTO® type.
Finally, it may be mentioned that the inserts included in the cutter may be single-edged, ie. non-indexable, partly made of many other hard materials than just traditional cemented carbide, e.g. ceramics, cerrnet, CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride), PCD etc. Of course, the primary cutting edge of the insert does not necessarily need to be combined with any secondary cutting edge, but can extend all the way from corner to corner.
