CUTTING INSERT AND ROTARY CUTTING TOOL WITH REPLACEABLE BLADE EDGE

摘要

The present invention provides a cutting insert (1) including a cutting edge having an involute-curve approximate shape. A cutting edge (18) is formed so as to wholly take on a first curved shape with a first curvature radius when the cutting insert is viewed from the end surface, and is formed so that a large part of the cutting edge (18) takes on a second curved shape with a second curvature radius when the cutting insert is viewed from the side surface.
