MULTI-EDGED MACHINING TOOL FOR POST-MACHINING OF BORES

摘要

The invention relates to a multi-edged machining tool for the post-machining or precision machining of bores. The tool has at least one cutting insert with a pre-determined nominal diameter measurement and with cutting edges that are distributed substantially uniformly around the periphery, in addition to a guide body assembly that is axially offset in relation to said edges. The guide body assembly can be an integral component of a substantially cylindrical guide body that consists of a solid carbide. In some embodiments, said guide body forms at least n helical guide ribs which are equidistant around the periphery and which have a nominal diameter substantially smaller than the nominal diameter measurement of the cutting insert by a value equating to double the dimension of the lubricant gap that is formed during the operation of the tool.
