A new algorithm for detection of tool fracture in milling process was developed. The variation of the peak-to-valley value of cutting load was used in this algorithm. Various kinds of vectors representing the condition of tool, such as tool condition vector, reference tool condition vector, tool condition variation vector were defined. Using these vectors, tool fracture index which represents the magnitude of tool fracture and is independent of tool run-outs is developed. Small and large tool fracture and chipping under various cutting condition could be detected using proposed tool fracture index, which was proved with cutting force model and experiments.
