One of the most important tasks of serial and mass production is to maintain the continuity of the technological process in order to reduce equipment downtime and, as a result, the cost of production. One of the systems is the tool condition monitoring system. However, the solutions used today are complex software and hardware systems that are not available for most medium and small productions. The article proposes a system based on a comparative analysis of the applied tool with reference instances. The results of the analysis are sent to the decision-making system, which determines the feasibility of further use of the cutting tool for subsequent machining. An example of an experimental study of milling processing is given. The results obtained show the possibility and rationality of using this model to predict the state of the instrument.
