FIELD: mechanical treatment of current-conducting materials on manually operated machines, semiautomatic and automatic machines, and NC machines. SUBSTANCE: cutting tool contains changeable polyhedral plate secured and fixed to the closed housing hollow and support plate provided with central profiled opening made from current-conducting hard alloy and placed into electric circuit with a treated workpiece. The housing head, bearing surfaces of the hollow, surfaces of the central opening of the support plate and its surface which is in contact with the cutting plate are covered with dielectric coating. The support plate is provided with threaded openings with their axis placed parallel to main cutting plane and main cutting edge provided with adjusting screws. The screws are meant for contacting with the bearing surfaces of the hollow of the housing head. EFFECT: improved design of the cutting tool. 4 dwg
