Patent attributes
An object is to provide a cutting insert for a milling cutter with which efficiency in machining can be increased. The cutting insert includes two polygonal main surfaces facing each other and side surfaces each connected to a corresponding side of each of the main surfaces. The side surfaces include a major side surface through which an attachment hole extends, a first minor side surface perpendicular to the major side surface, and a second minor side surface disposed between the first minor side surface and the major side surface. A ridge between each of the main surfaces and the major side surface forms a major cutting edge, and a ridge between each of the main surfaces and the second minor side surface forms a minor cutting edge. An angle between the major cutting edge and the minor cutting edge is 145° or larger.
