Metal cutting operations are accomplished using cutting tools on machine tools.

Cutting tool technology has two principal aspects: tool material and tool geometry.

The first is concerned with developing materials that can withstand the forces, temperatures,
and wearing action in the machining process. The second deals with optimizing the geometry of the cutting tool for the tool material and for a given operation.

Proper selection of cutting tool material and geometry of tool is required for effectiveness and efficiency of the cutting operation.
