Description

A MILLING INSERT AND A MILLING TOOL
Field of the invention
The present invention relates to a milling insert and a milling tool for chip removing machining according to the preamble of the independent claim 1.
Milling inserts for milling of 90° corners in metallic workpieces are previously known, see for example U.S. Patent No. 6,142,716. Drawbacks of known milling inserts are that they are relatively expensive to use and provides unstable localization.
Objects of the invention
One object of the present invention is to provide an economically advantageous milling insert for milling of 90° corners in metallic workpieces.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a milling insert for milling, which enables rigid localization of the milling insert in a milling body.
These and other objects have been achieved by a milling insert and a milling tool according to the appended claims with reference to the enclosed drawings.
Brief description of the drawings
Fig. 1 A shows a milling insert according to the present invention in a top view. Fig. 1 B shows the basic shape of the milling insert in a top view. Fig. 1C shows the milling insert in cross-section according to the line C-C in Fig. 1A.
Fig. 1 D shows the milling insert in cross-section according to the line D-D in Fig. 1 A. Fig. 1 E shows the milling insert in a side view. Fig. 1 F shows the milling insert in a perspective view. Fig. 2A shows a milling tool according to the present invention equipped with milling inserts according to the present invention. Fig. 2B shows an enlarged part of the milling tool in Fig. 2A.
Detailed description of the invention Figs. 1 A-1 F show a double sided or indexable cutting insert 10 for milling, hereinafter called milling insert, according to the present invention. The milling insert 10 has a trigon-shaped or hexagonal basic shape and is made of directly pressed hard metal. Alternatively, the milling insert can have four or five corners. With "hard metal" is here meant WC, TiC, TaC, NbC, etc., in sintered combination with a binder metal such as for example Co or Ni. The milling insert is preferably at least partly coated with layer of for example AI2O3, TiN and/or TiCN. In certain cases there can be well-founded that the cutting edges are made of brazed on super hard materials such as CBN or PCD. In Fig. 1B the basic shape of the milling insert is shown where 25 depicts right angled cutting corners provided with edges, whereof one corner is active at the time, and where 26 depicts blunt passive corners. The blunt corners 26 do normally not cut during milling. The milling insert is intended to be mounted in a milling body intended to be rotated in a milling machine. The milling body includes at least one milling insert pocket in order to receive the milling insert. The milling insert 10 is intended to be able to mill substantially perpendicular corners in a work piece 50, Fig. 2B. The milling insert 10 includes an upper side 11 , a lower side 12 and edge surfaces 13A, 13B, 14A, 14B, 15A, 15B extending there between. The upper side 11 and the lower side 12 are substantially identical. An imaginary circle C inscribed in the milling insert 10 touches the milling insert periphery at six points S1 , S2. In an alternative, square milling insert an imaginary circle, inscribed in the milling insert, touches the milling insert periphery at four points. In an additional alternative, pentagonal milling insert an imaginary circle, inscribed in the milling insert, touches the milling insert periphery at five points. Lines of intersection between the edge surfaces and the sides form relative to each other, in a top view according to Fig. 1 A, substantially perpendicular main cutting edges 16 and minor cutting edges 17 which intersect at cutting corners 25 via a nose edge 20. Each side 1 1 , 12 include as support surface 18, 19, each being provided in a plane P1 and P2, respectively. The support surface 18 or 19 is intended to abut against a base surface in the milling insert pocket. The planes P1 , P2 are preferably parallel such that the milling insert mounted in the milling body discloses the same properties irrespective of which side 11 , 12 that has been put forward. Each minor cutting edge 17 projects from the plane P1 , P2 for the associated support surface 18, 19, such that the minor cutting edge reaches the farthest in the axial direction of the milling cutter of all parts of the milling insert when the milling insert has been mounted in the milling insert pocket. With the term "associated" is here meant "provided on the same side as" or "cooperating during milling with". Each major cutting edge 16 intersects the plane P1 , P2 for associated support surface and forms an acute angle α with the plane P1 , P2. The angle α is 5-20°, preferably 10-16°. The angle α gives the main cutting edge an easy cutting, positive axial angle when the milling insert has been mounted in the milling insert pocket. Each minor cutting edge 17 is provided distant from all of said points S1 and S2. Each major cutting edge 16 includes one of said points S1. A line L that intersects a point S1 on a major cutting edge 16 and intersects the associated minor cutting edge 17 milling insert also intersects an associated support surface 18, 19, when the milling insert is seen in a top view according to Fig. 1 A. This means that the support surface 18, 19 can reach close to the active the cutting edges such that the cutting forces from the milling operation can be transferred to the milling body without the milling insert breaking. Each minor cutting edge 17 extends substantially parallel with the plane P1 , P2, such as illustrated in Fig. 1 E. Each major cutting edge 16 connects to a chip breaking recess 21 , which is recessed relative to the plane P1 , P2, in order to give the edge 16 a positive rake angle in order to cut easily in the workpiece. A hole 22 is provided centrally in the milling insert 10. A bisector B between associated major cutting edge 16 and minor cutting edge 17 intersects the center of the hole 22. The bisector B on the opposite side of the hole 22, facing away from the cutting corner 25, intersects the milling insert periphery between two of the points S1 and S2. The cutting edges 16, 17 connects to a strengthening bevel, which has one width along the main cutting edges 16 and the minor cutting edges 17 and a greater width at the nose edge 20 substantially symmetrically about the bisector B. Thereby the strength of the cutting corners is increased. A major cutting edge 16, opposed to a cutting corner 25, has an end 23 provided between two of the points S1 and S2. The milling insert 10 includes six pairs of associated main cutting edges 16 and minor cutting edges 17. The main cutting edge and the minor cutting edge in each pair connects to each other via the convexly curved nose edge 20. The upper side and the lower side form an edge angle that is 90° with the edge surfaces 13A-15B, that is, the milling insert has a negative basic shape. A centrally placed hole 22 is provided in order to receive a fastening device such as a screw at mounting in the milling body 40, such as illustrated in for example Fig. 2B. The minor cutting edge 17 projects in the range of about 0.02 to 1 mm from the plane P1 , P2 of the support surface 18, 19. The milling tool according to the present invention includes the milling body 40 which has a number of insert pockets. Each milling insert pocket is intended to receive a milling insert 10 designed as describe above. Consequently, the basic shape of the milling insert pocket rectangular to hexagonal. Thereby an imaginary circle, not shown, inscribed in the milling insert pocket touches the milling insert pocket periphery at six points, not shown. In an alternative square milling insert pocket an imaginary circle, inscribed in the milling insert pocket, touches the milling insert pocket periphery at four points. In an additional alternative pentagonal milling insert pocket an imaginary circle, inscribed in milling insert pocket, touches the milling insert pocket periphery at five points.
Consequently, the present invention relates to an economically advantageous milling insert for milling, which enables rigid localization of the milling insert in the milling body and a milling tool.
The invention is in no way limited to the above described embodiments but can be freely varied within the limits of the appended claims.
