Abstract
A cutting insert for the chipforming machining of metals is mounted on a holder. A holding surface of the holder includes at least one rib extending in the longitudinal direction of the holder. The bottom surface of the insert includes at least one groove which receives the rib of the holder. The flanks of the rib and groove are inclined, whereby the insert is supported by those flanks. The bottom side of the insert further includes a transverse surfaces extending perpendicular to the groove and which are adapted to engage corresponding transverse surfaces of the holding surface, in order to resist longitudinal forces applied to the cutting insert.
