Cutting conditions determination may help to control design and manufacturing processes. The machining database is important in wood field, that is specific to each tool-machine. So for each kind of wood piece, particular machining conditions are needed to reach a properly surface roughness and a safe work. Couple Tool Material (COM) method is applied like a new methodology in wood working, centered in secondary wood processing industry, defining the working field of cutting tools taking in mind cutting parameters and limiting the number of experiments. Working perspectives are wide with the appearance of new cutting materials and high speed cutting processes, so the needs to compute the betters working conditions in wood cutting will be easier with COM data utilization.
