Tool for chip removing machining employing multiple different cutting inserts

摘要

A tool for chip removing machining includes a tool head having at least one chip pocket formed therein which serves as a common pocket for first and second replaceable cutting inserts. The inserts perform mutually different machining operations and have their respective active surfaces disposed in generally mutually facing relationship to one another within the pocket. A radially outermost portion of the first insert is spaced farther from a center axis of the tool head than is a radially outermost portion of the second insert.
