This paper describes a tool management system based on analytical approach and database. At first, cutting force and tool deflection of tooling system are calculated. Using these analytic values, cutting condition can be predicted in advance and the tool selection and the decision cutting conditions, that to need the experience and the practical background of skilled engineers become easy. Moreover, by accumulating the past milling operations as a database, know-how can be reflected. By these two methods, we can get tool shape and cutting conditions suitable for the given milling operation.
