Chatter is a problem of instability in the metal cutting process. The phenomenon is characterized by violent vibrations, loud sound and poor quality of surface finish. Chatter causes a reduction of the life of the tool and affects the productivity by interfering with the normal functioning of the machining process. The problem has affected the manufacturing community for quite some time and has been a popular topic for academic and industrial research. Since then many researchers investigated to identify, characterize and suppress the tool chatter in boring operation. This paper presents a review of some of the significant contributions in the field of tool chatter suppression with a focus in boring operation.
