Abstract

A cutting tool for machining by chip removal has a supply of a cold-gas flow for cooling the immediate machine-cutting region. Accordingly, in this case, the cold-gas flow is supplied internally and is generated by a low-temperature generator, which is integrated into the tool main body and which, via a vortex tube, converts compressed gas from normal temperature into a cold-gas flow and a warm-gas flow.
