Abstract
A cutting tool comprises a cutter body having at least one pocket therein. The pocket is adapted to receive a cutting insert cartridge. A position-adjusting device cooperates with the cartridge to move the cartridge in opposing directions. The body may have a pocket for receiving the cartridge. The device may include a cylindrical body member supported in a fixed axial relation within a bore in the body. The cylindrical body member may have an eccentric protrusion that engages the cartridge. The cylindrical body member may be displaceable to displace the protrusion and move the cartridge. A clamping wedge may be provided for clamping the cartridge in the pocket. The protrusion may engage a slot in a rear surface of the cartridge. The protrusion may engage the slot.
