SHANK: It is the main part of the cutting tool, and is
also the part of the tool is gipped in the tool holder.
END CUTTING EDGE: It is the cutting edge formed at the end face of the tool.
SIDE CUTTING EDGE: It is the cutting edge on the side face of the tool.
FLANK: It is the surface adjacent to, and below the cutting edge when tool lies in a
horizontal position.
NOSE: It is the tip of the cutting tool, and formed by the intersection of the side cutting
edge and the end cutting edge.

BACK RAKE ANGLE: It measurers the
downward slope of the top surface of the tool
from the nose to the rear along the z axis.
SIDE RAKE ANGLE: It measures the slope of
the top Surface of the tool to the side in a
direction Perpendicular to the z-axis.
SIDE CUTTING EDGE ANGLE: It is the angle
between the
Side cutting edge and the z-axis of the tool.
TOOTH: The tooth is the part of the cutter starting at the body and ending at the peripheral cutting edge.
FACE: The tooth face is the surface of the tooth between the fillet and the cutting edge.
LAND: The land is the portion behind the cutting edge on each tooth that is relieved to avoid interference
between itself and the surface being machined.
OUTSIDE DIAMETER: It is the diameter of the circle passing through the peripheral cutting edges.
ROOT DIAMETER: It is the diameter of the circle passing tangent to the bottom of the fillet of the teeth.
HOLE DIAMETER: The hole diameter determines the size of the arbor necessary to mount the milling
cutter.
1. PRIMARY CLEARANCE ANGLE:
It is the angle formed by the back
of the tooth with a line drawn tangent
through the periphery cutting edge.
3. RELIEF ANGLE: It is the angle measured between the land and the tangent drawn to the
periphery cutting edge.
4. RAKE ANGLE: It is the angle measured between the tooth face and the center line of the cutter.
