Help Creating Boring Bar

[Anonymous]

I need some help creating a boring bar. It is a Sandvik  MB-07T020-02-10R 1025 insert on a MB-E0500-25-07R bar. Not sure of the best way to add this to the library and input the correct dimensions and shape to make it as close as possible.

Use custom insert definition. Only things that really matter to produce valid code are tip radius, front and back clearance angle, cutting edge relief angle and insert proportion to holder diameter.

I appreciate the feedback. So would that be setting "Shape" to custom? Or using a triangular shape for example and filling in the dimensions? Attached images with the insert shape and info... I have started trying to do custom shape insert.. however unsure if that is what is needed and if so I am still unsure of what to put under "trailing edge length", and "Angle".

Experiment with options and values, take note of how changes effect outcome and draw your own conclusions from it.

You can also duplicate closest tool from library and maybe just change insert radius and size if geometry is the same.

Yeah thats what Ill be doing. Its a very different shape from a normal insert.
