Does anyone know of a tool with inserts that are used in lathe/mill to cut keywas. I know that there are out there coz I have seen one before.. Mabe there are a profile to cut timing pulleys in the same way?

Mattias, www.hornusa.com or www.phorn.de should be able to direct you to their keyway broaching tools. They cut by stroking a broach insert tool into a hole. I suppose you could come up with a method to broach externally as well. Good Luck
add: The horn site is a bit confusing. click on their site then products/catalogs/non-rotating/broaching/ open pdf/ scroll down to info you want.

I havent used them, but command has a fluid driven keyway cutter.
Take a look at these......
El Tool Available in a variety of shanks....
It's just a part..... cutter still goes round and round....
M-man, I noticed your tag line said "keyways". If you have multiple keyways this can often be accomplished using rotary broaching. Check it out at www.slatertools.com.
internal keyways JP technologies in Santa Fe Springs, CA machines excellent internal keyway slots.With vertical shapers from 6" p&w,to 14"Morey. jojosmi57@yahoo.com Joseph or Paul Smith
We use several phorn broaches and before i saw them work i said no way it will do that but they work really good
M-Man (and others),
I used to broach keyways with Horn's broaching tool until I found out about Razorform Tools. They offer more sizes than horn, and their huge inserts got me 5-10 TIMES more parts per cutting edge over horn's flimsy tooling.
They are kind of a small company, but they are great about overnighting me tools and inserts when I have a hot job. They even hand delivered some inserts same day once!
I'm pretty sure they sell overseas. Check them out:
