摘要 |
The invention relates to a turning insert and to a turning tool comprising such a turning insert. The turning insert (2) is indexable and has a polygonal basic shape, comprising opposite top and bottom sides (13,14) between which clearance surfaces (19) extend adjacent to main cutting edges (16), which approach each other in pairs in corners (17), more precisely in a corner angle of at least 55° and at most 80°, between each pair of main cutting edges a secondary cutting edge (18) being formed to which a secondary clearance surface (20) connects, and each clearance surface (19,20) forming a clearance angle with an imaginary reference plane perpendicular to the top side (13) of the turning insert. Furthermore the clearance angle of the secondary clearance surface (20) is at least 1° greater than the clearance angle of the main clearance surface (19). In such a way, internal turning of exceptionally small holes, i.e., holes having diameters of down to 12 to 6 mm, is allowed. |
