Abstract

A milling cutter head intended for metal machining, particularly aluminum, comprises grooves in which are mounted cutting insert-carrying cartridges and spacer plates. The sides of the cartridge and the spacer plate that are in contact are serrated in the same direction. The other side of the spacer plate and the side surface of the groove being in contact with it are serrated in a direction which is substantially perpendicular to the first mentioned serration. In this way, it is possible to independently and precisely adjust each of the axial and radial directions of the cutting edge.
