ABSTRACT
The cutting performance and service life of disc milling cutters are significantly influenced by their geometric and sharpening characteristics. The development of these parameters is largely determined by the relief grinding process, which is governed by the geometry of the control cam. This paper provides an overview of the geometric features of disc milling cutters and examines the relationship between the control cam and the resulting relief curves. The main issues and research questions related to tool profile geometry, clearance angle characteristics, and re-sharpening capability are discussed. The aim of the study is to establish a foundation for further geometric modeling and analytical investigations.
