The turning process is a widely used cutting operation in industry. Any optimization of this process can significantly improve product quality, streamline costs, or reduce unwanted events. With automatic monitoring of turning tools, we can reduce costs, increase efficiency, and decrease the number of undesirable events that occur during machining (scrap, tool breakage, etc.). In single-piece or small-batch production, tool wear is monitored by the machine operator
