Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of the entry process and tool fracture in t he milling operation. Equations representing different types of initial con tacts are derived. Experimental and theoretical results reveal that the dir ection of the cutting force and the initial location on the rake face deter mine the entry fracture in milling cutters.
