The present invention relates to a face milling cutter comprising a holder (11), which can be secured at the end surface of a rotatable spindle, a number of cutting inserts (18A,18B), every other of which having at least a cutting edge and being releaseably attached to said holder at a radial distance from the cutter axis of rotation. The cutting edges extend outwardly from the end surface and the envelope surface of said holder, such that said cutting edges may engage and machine a surface of a work piece. Means (29) is provided for releaseably secure said cutting insert at said holder by means of a central opening in said cutting insert. The cutting inserts are peripherally distributed around said holder (10). The tool comprises first cutting inserts (18A) the cutting edges of which are essentially axially directed and second cutting inserts (18B), the cutting edges of which are essentially radially directed relative to the holder (11). The second cutting inserts (18B) are provided substantially to generate a planar surface on the work piece. Each second cutting insert (18B) rests against a shim (40), which in thickness direction and in the width direction is smaller than the associated cutting insert (18B). The thickness of the shim is provided to define the position of the edge of the insert relative to the first cutting insert (18A). The invention further relates to a milling insert and a method for determining the axial position of the cutting insert provided in a face milling cutter. <IMAGE> |
