Cutting insert for chipforming machining
First Claim
1. A cutting insert for chipforming machining of metal workpieces in the shape of a polygonal body of wear resistant material, comprising opposed top and bottom surfaces and a plurality of peripheral walls extending therebetween, cutting edges being formed at a transition between the peripheral walls and at least one of the top and bottom surfaces, a land area joining the cutting edge and extending rearwardly towards a center of the insert, a descending surface joining an inner margin of the land area, a number of spaced projections being provided adjacent the descending surface in spaced relationship to the cutting edges to define chip curling zones therebetween, the descending surface from each land joining a flat bottom surface area which then joins an upwardly sloping area of an elongated rib, and two distantly provided projections being provided at a forward nose end portion of the elongated rib and arranged symmetrically at art intersection between a forwardly sloping end surface of the elongated rib and the flat bottom surface area, the distantly provided projections diverging away from each other at an end remote from the cutting edge.

Abstract
A cutting insert for chipforming machining of metal workpieces is disclosed, which comprises top and bottom surfaces and side walls therebetween. A land area extends around the entire insert and a descending surface joins the inner margin of the land. An elongated rib is provided at each corner region which rib terminates at a certain distance from the descending surface. Two distantly provided chipbreaking projections are provided at a forward nose portion of the elongated rib in order to facilitate chipbreaking at small depths of cut and moderate feed.
