Abstract
In a process for the registration of the state of wear of a tool used in gear manufacture, where the tool has at least one abrasive tooth tip for machining a workpiece in a machining process, a cutting distance per tooth tip of the tool is determined, and this cutting distance, weighted with a wear intensity factor, compared with a specified life path constant. This life path constant indicates the maximum acceptable state of wear of the tool for the machining of the workpiece. By way of this process the wear behaviour can be registered, and a total and residual piece potential determined.
