A polygonal, metal-removing cutting insert has an at least one-sided top face which forms the first face and continuous side faces which form the flanks. The first face has a central chip breaker raised in relation to a plane defined by the cutting edges or in relation to a chip breaking flute adjacent to the cutting edge and having if required individual projections located therein. The chip breaker ends as at least one wedge-shaped longitudinal rib arranged in the chip removal area, as disclosed in the patent application. In particular to allow good chip breakage and to prevent long chips, trough-shaped recesses and/or raised chip shaping means are arranged between and/or besides the longitudinal ribs. 3, record 4, English, - cutting%20insert

Une plaquette de coupe polygonale est destinée à l'usinage par enlèvement de copeaux. Sa face supérieure à au moins un côté forme la face de coupe et ses faces latérales périphériques forment les faces de dépouille. La face de coupe comprend un brise-copeaux central en saillie par rapport au plan défini par les bords tranchants ou par rapport à une rainure brise-copeaux adjacente aux bords tranchants et dans laquelle sont situées le cas échéant des protubérances individuelles. Le brise-copeaux se termine sous forme d'au moins une nervure longitudinale en coin située dans la zone d'écoulement des copeaux [...]. Afin d'assurer notamment une bonne rupture des copeaux et d'éviter la formation de copeaux continus, des dépressions en auge et/ou des éléments saillants de façonnage de copeaux sont situés entre les nervures longitudinales et/ou à côté de celles-ci. 3, record 4, French, - plaquette%20de%20coupe
