JPS59322B

A milling cutter has a cutter body, a plurality of stops received in the cutter body, an adjusting device for separately axially displacing each stop, a cutter blade received in each stop and a wedge member associated with each stop for tightening each cutter blade to the respective stop. The adjusting device comprises a projection which is attached to and extends from each stop and which is received in a recess provided in the cutter body, at least two axially oriented clamping faces which form part of each projection and which are inclined with respect to one another and set screws cooperating with each clamping face. Each set screw is supported in the cutter body in a substantially radial orientation with respect to the axis of the cutter body. Each clamping face is obliquely disposed with respect to the orientation of the associated set screw for effecting an axial shift of the stop upon tightening the respective set screw.
