| Possible causes |
| High tool wear, insufficient workpiece surface quality and insufficient dimensional accuracy through vibration |
| Solution |
| improve workpiece and tool clamping (see points 1 and 2) |
| Alternative |
| increase tooth feed, because the chip centre thickness is too small |
| modify speed |
| modify milling strategy, i.e. select alternative cutting distribution |
| change tool selection, i.e. reduce no. of teeth or spiral |
