ABSTRACT:
An indexable cutting insert is disclosed in which, an insert body is formed into a polygonal plate-like shape when viewed from the front, and has a cutting face and a flank face. In the insert body, a cutting edge is formed at an intersection of the cutting face and the flank face. The cutting face is formed into an inclined face downsloped toward the inner side of the front face of the insert body. A breaker face is formed on the front face connected with the cutting face. The breaker face projects outwardly in the direction of the thickness of the insert body with respect to the extended plane stemming from the cutting face. On the cutting face, protrusions projecting out from the cutting face are formed, and when viewed from the front, extend towards the inner side from the periphery of the insert body. The protrusion has a ridge portion, which extends perpendicular to the direction of the thickness of the insert body. During cutting operation, cuttings produced by the cutting edge are slightly curled by the ridge portions of the protrusion, the cuttings are guided to the inner side of the front face of the insert body, and as a result, the resistance exerted to the cuttings can be reduced and clogging of the cuttings can be prevented.
