The Evaluation of the up and down Milling Based on its Chip

The main aim of this contribution was monitoring of chip in the milling process by the evaluation of the volumetric coefficient of chip. The chip was monitoring during the peripheral up and down milling. Nowadays, the milling is the most used technology in engineering. The shape of chip is important for its transport and for economical aspect of this technology. This coefficient represents the shape of chip. The small chip has a lower volumetric coefficient, but the very small chip is not very desired in the cutting process, because they can fill some small spaces and damage the machine. But very long chip can damage tool and machine, too.
