The present invention relates to cutting tools and, more particularly, to cutting tools having inserts and insert-receiving recesses with curved surfaces. The cutting tool includes a toolholder having a recess and an insert adapted to be received in the recess. The recess has a top surface with a curved portion, a bottom surface with a curved portion, and a fixed stop surface. The insert has a top surface with a curved portion, a bottom surface with a curved portion, and a stop surface. The curved portion of the top surface of the insert and the curved portion of the bottom surface of the insert are curved such that they abut against the curved portion of the top surface of the recess and the curved portion of the bottom surface of the recess, respectively, when the stop surface of the insert abuts against the fixed stop surface of the recess. The present invention also relates to a cutting tool kit, a cutting insert and a method for positioning an insert relative to a toolholder. |
