A rhombic shaped metal cutting insert is adapted for longitudinal turning and copy turning. Opposing nose corners (NC) of the insert form equal angles less than 60 degrees. A pair of side cutting edges (17,18 19,20) converge toward each of the nose corners (NC). The side cutting edges of each pair form obtuse angles with respective side cutting edges of the other pair. A longest diagonal (D1) extending through the insert intersects both of the nose corners and forms an acute angle relative to a diagonal (D2) which bisects both of the obtuse angles. Each nose corner has a corner cutting edge formed by a plurality of curved segments (38-42). First and second ones (40,42) of those segments are disposed on opposite sides of the longest diagonal and together form an angle of about 90 DEG . Situated between the first and second segments is a third segment (41) which is intersected by the longest diagonal. Adjacently disposed ones of the curved segments at each corner have radii that are different from one another. <IMAGE> |
