CHAMFERING TOOL

A chamfer tool which comprises a tool holder. The tool holder extends along a central axis and comprises a plurality of slot-shaped cutting insert receptacles, each having two opposing lateral abutment surfaces and a base abutment surface arranged between the two lateral abutment surfaces and extending transversely thereto. The chamfer tool further comprises a plurality of cutting inserts, which are fixed in the plurality of cutting insert receptacles in a firmly bonded manner, wherein each of the cutting inserts comprises two opposing lateral surfaces, which abut against or are connected in a firmly bonded manner to the two lateral abutment surfaces of the respective cutting insert receptacle, and a lower surface arranged between the two lateral surfaces and extending transversely thereto, wherein the lower surface abuts against or is connected in a firmly bonded manner to the base abutment surface of the respective cutting insert receptacle. The cutting inserts project out of the first cutting insert receptacles both in an axial direction, which is parallel to the central axis of the tool holder, and transversely to the axial direction. Each of the cutting inserts comprises a main cutting edge which is oriented at a first acute angle to the central axis of the tool holder.
